People are dying every day from opioid addiction after being prescribed strong pain medication after having a major operation such as a spinal fusion or a hip replacement broken femur bone etc suddenly there prescriptions for their pain medication are no

I personally had seven hip revision surgery's. Because my surgeon neglected to put a drain in I got a horrible infection both of my legs were so swallowing that my feet were bleeding there was nowhere for the excess fluid to go. I had to call an ambulance on myself from the rehab facility that I was sent to after my operation. Because of this I required six other additional operations all unsuccessful to get rid of the infection. To this day I am walking with a limp I wake up unable to walk it takes me hours to be able to move without holding on to something for fear of falling again and breaking another bone. My surgeon stopped my pain medication abruptly I was left with horrible pain constant horrible throbbing pain and no options! What is a person supposed to do?
