Liberty Mutual claims none of their pm doctors will treat me unless I go to a 10 day detox first. They are looking at my chart that says 90mg Roxi every 3 hrs. Im actually on 15mg. every 3 hrs and thats as low as I can go on my own. Im off my Lyrica (since the judge said its widely abused and I'd have to come off that too) I never even bothered to bring up cannabis at that point. (Im mean LYRICA? Really? addicts have stolen my Morphine, Oxy, Roxi, but they always left the Lyrica & Gabapentin. I dont think they're trading Lyrica for sexual favors in the hood! Such misinformation....)

I cant imagine a week of this "recovery room" pain but maybe they have some good restraints & straight jackets for me to wear...

I found cannabis to be helpful during this adjustment/detox time. I have a feeling thats going to be an issue with this new pmd even after I get my card.
