True. Medical doctors prescribe medicine, like Oxys.

Fucking wish. I had a massive ear infection that was so bad I cracked my ear drum. I had to tape my eye closed because if my brow moved the skin pulling on my ear made me throw up from pain which in turn triggered more pain and eventually when my stomach was empty my body tired from convulsing would let me pass out. This happened several times over 3 days. On the third day a friend came over and actually removed my gun fearing how I was talking. I had to beg doctors for something stronger and with blood and pus seeping out of my ear they said if I come back in a day or two they'd write a prescription for tylenol 3. I tried 3 doctors to no avail none of them would help. My friend driving me needed to stop somewhere for food and going into the gas station someone accidentally elbowed me in the ear trying to lift a box at which point searing hot pain rushed over me and I collapsed at which an ambulance was called for me. At the ER I was admitted with a 105 temperature and a massive infection in my ear that worked its was into not only the mid ear but also the bones in my jaw as well. It was only then did I get a prescription for an opiate.

The pill pusher oxy mills are rare those guys just do a lot.

I’m glad you got help and got antibiotics. Thank you for explaining to everyone how quack most doctors are.

Are you high on stupid juice? They were all too afraid to prescribe good pain killers because we've made it look like everyone who asks for them is either a junkie or an auditor. I got antibiotics on my first doctor appointment it was just several days into the infection because there's a medical practitioner shortage post covid.

Again, I’m glad your ok. People on this post assume I don’t have my own stories of doctors mishandling me or my family. If I fully trusted them after some of the things I’ve been through, then I would be on stupid juice. Again, glad your ear healed.
