Another first

Went to a neighbourhood party here the other night and met a middle-aged woman who had weaned herself off fentanyl after years of using it for pain.  This was the first time I had met a fentanyl person.  Her doctor had actually prescribed it so she thought she could safely use it.  But it wasn't working, so instead of upping the dose, she went "cold turkey".  "I did not sleep for two weeks," she told me.  "It was a nightmare." 

But she said her personality had actually returned.  This is how so many get hooked on this drug.  First, they are prescribed it and next they are hooked.  "The doctors get paid to push it by the drug companies," said a friend who knows how all this skull drudgery works. 

They are killing a lot of people.
