Prescription to die for: Study finds ‘exceptional’ death rates among opioid patients

this blew me away. my wife was taking higher doses than they talk about
http://globalnews.ca/news/2176575/a-prescription-to-die-for-a-man-taking-high-dose-opioids-is-more-likely-to-die-from-his-medication-than-almost-anything-else/

think hard about this one...its the news....

anyone" I've known to die was from overdose....self inflicted!
I don't know anyone who has died from higher dose complications.

I guess I should be thankful I'm not dead...I took 1000mg/d morphine for years....but that was almost a year ago...

Its a known fact morphine will put older people in the grave faster...
Give them heroin and they'd last longer

legal drugs. Smh

I guess we will see what this year brings....

but the other control factor would probably be alcohol since every single case I know of personally its been a factor...

its pretty good for pain
but the side effects..like loss of appetite and lethargy are not great
