Why, Do People Become Addicted?

[Linville]

Hi gang.  Kidney stones are brutal. DH had his first one about 6 months ago.  He didnt know he had it and then it went bad very quickly.  I ended up rushing him to the ER.  They gave hims some PKs and scheduled him to see a Urologist a day or two later. The Urologist zapped his kidney with ultrasound waves.  All fixed.  His kidney was most sore for a bit though

He was given a small amount of low dose hydros with one refill.  Getting back on topic, he didn't finish the first bottle and never filled his refill.  This was during the month that hydro went schedule 2.  Anyway, it did sort of bug me to see a perfectly legal refill just expire due to the rescheduling.

But I felt that harassing him to fill it so I could have extras around would have been addicitive behavior so I did not do it. Anyone else ever take a step back just to make sure ...

Hi all,
Oh FirePlaces I see you understand how withering on the floor, in pain with kidney stones, can be a very real thing.

Anyway, mine was not large enough for the  lithotripsy so they let them flow the natural way.

I have a friend that had it though. and he also said there was bruising, sore….

(my font size got changed pasting the link into the word lithotripsy….sorry it is bothersome to you…I can only promise to try and do better, ha.)

Well, about the re-fills….I also would get the refill to have on hand myself, because any kind of med. is just so hard to get RX's for anymore I just go ahead and do it if I dont forget and let them run out.

I had one on ambien and called it in to refill and even though there were 2 re-fills left they said it was beyond the refill date….I am like WHAT you wont re-fill it and I have re-fills on it.

But I can see your point when it is another persons….but I would not think a second about refilling it myself. I would have done it unless there was resistance.
