“From Despair to Triumph: The Unexpected Lessons of Confronting My Inner Demon!”
Oh, I forgot to mention that, with my bleeding disorder, I’m not even supposed to take NSAIDS. I was in so much pain, I didn’t care. I also forgot to mention that, on day two, the dentist added a second antibiotic because my condition was getting worse, not better.
I listen to a series of videos on TikTok by a care provider who warns people about hospitals not giving people appropriate pain relief, even after spinal surgeries!! I saw another video of a toddler with a horribly broken hand and the ER wouldn’t give her pain meds because they thought she’d get addicted. Her family had to drive her out of state, to another hospital! I understand that some people do abuse those drugs but MOST PEOPLE DO NOT. And, people need those meds! It’s absolutely infuriating. Had I not had those when I was dealing with the hot acid infected demon in my mouth for a week, there’s no telling what I might have resorted to. And, don’t think I wasn’t thinking about it.
