My father has been taking much pain medication, prescribed by his doctor, for over 20 years. His doctor recently informed him that he has to start weaning him off his medication because of new prescribing guidelines here in PA. He was told to start taking large doses of ibuprofen and to wash it down with Mylanta if it upsets his stomach. Isn't it wonderful that the government is dictating how doctors are to treat paid in their patients to protect us from ourselves. God help us all, if we ever adopt full blown socialized medicine here in the US.
