They took my darvocet and darvon off the market the day I was supposed to get refills so I had to quit cold turkey.(you never want the side effects of withdrawals) Ive been through 3 rheumys, a pain clinic and now just see my reg. dr. Nothing has ever helped except the darvons and now they are gone. Too many meds to mention on here.
I am so glad you called your sister and that she helped you through a very bad time. I think when they take medication off the market they should consider the impact it can have on those taking it and make it available for them to 'wean' themselves off it. I hope you will continue to pursue someone that WILL help you - never give up, there is help out there.
Take care and continue to be strong! Hugs to you!!!!
