I got Vicodin after an appendectomy. I took 3 total I think. I threw away the rest. I didn’t want them around the house. The odds of you ‘needing’ spare opiate

  I'm glad that your knowledge of my life knowing absolutely nothing at all about me should be the end all be all deciding factor of my medical treatment options. Nobody 'needs' opiates ever. I didn't need them when I've had surgeries. I wanted them because I prefer it to terrible pain. In that case the only difference was someone was willing to give it to me because they subjectively agreed. The idea that any other criteria besides my own judgement of the trade-offs between the pain and my perception of the risk of the treatement would matter is an absolute outrage. I literally put you on the moral equivalent level of a Nazi or any other violent human rights violator if you think your opinions about addiction supercede my right to receive medical treatments that benefit me. Regardless of your intent you are still doing real damage to the lives of others because you think some opinion you hold justifies it.
