Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Have they left you hanging like this before, ita?

First refill the doctor took it to the pharmacy, because they took so long responding. Second refill a nurse took the the pharmacy, for the same reason.

I first called this shit in Monday, and then was home near where I could pick up the script for three days. I'm back at the office tomorrow, so I can't make it to them in work hours. I was pretty clear about this. And then...long weekend. Sometimes I wonder if the doc doesn't want me on whatever med it is, but he can't leave me to go off it cold turkey. I was left hanging long enough the first time that I think I started withdrawal, and it was not fun.

has anyone every suggested you do a trial for medicinal pot?

Not only have they not suggested it, when I suggested it (don't need a trial in CA, just need a prescription) they plain old said no.

Obviously methadone and doses of dilaudid so big they had to make rules to prevent it are by far the better solution to a pot brownie.

Because books.

Honestly, there's something wrong with the way they handle that practice. Total bullshit.

And even though I've suggested medical weed, I don't know how much it would actually help. It might take the edge off, and relax you, but sometimes it acts the way gas at the dentist does -- you're not *without* pain, you just don't care about it so much.

Our wings are not tired.

ita, I've got some I could deliver to you so you could try it and see if it helps. I have to laugh because I smoke like once a year, if that, but I have a good stash. And now I don't want to at all because next job could have drug testing as part of screening so I can't take the risk. But seriously this last week has been so stressful that this is WHEN I WOULD if I COULD!

So, anyway, if you ever want to test, let me know. :)

(And lurker drug-enforcement types: the above was all a lie.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

No solution for IPA, though.

Of course there is. You give it to me.

I guess it can't hurt to try. A friend who has MS did pot (I don't know if she still does.) and it really worked to help relax the rigidity of her body. However she found smoking it the most effective way.

So, my sister and has been doing the genealogy research on our native ancestry because my siblings are applying for native status. (Don't get me start on how wrong it feels.) Of course, the research on both sides of the family takes us back to the same ancestor four generations ago.
