Do you use painkillers often or not?

Im not surprised b2c. That shit they (you) do is amazing... I could see the body being able to handle it once in a great while, but f-me, training for it, competing... damn thats just crazy.

You guys are nuts- you know that?? picking up giant bolders and running with them.... wtf??? lol!!

Dr. Shopping is such a bad way to put it. I prefer to call it looking for a Doctor who agrees with your ideas as to what meds you need. I've had docs tell me I should stop lifting weights!!

Its like calling Tomatoes, Tomaetos...I visit two doctors regularly each month. I get pain meds/sleep meds/T4 from one, Vyvanse from another. Im trying to find another doctor to prescribe me xanax and more pain meds. Always in the hunt!!

Tylenol 500's is all I use. I can't use anything that is prescription. Well, I can, but don't want to. In high school I became addicted to painkillers (took me years to admit) because of a bad shoulder injury. Instead of sitting out a game or practice, I went 9 more weeks with a dislocated shoulder. Popped in and out multiple times daily. I'd take one painkiller before the game and then one at half time, ever game. Wouldn't be anything to use 3-4 a day.

So I stay away from the stuff.

Doctor shopping using message boards is all the rave. People actually talk about "cool" Doc's on message boards and rate them. Personally I have very cool doctors but I really dont want one who is completely pro-drug.......That causes problems.
