Do you think the same thing about children with MS who receive pain relievers? Or is it different when you can see the symptoms?

- rgifford 6y agoWe're kind of talking in two threads and I wasn't able to directly reply in the other, so I'll repost this here: Over prescription of pain relievers is widely regarded as what caused the opioid epidemic. Sedation causes lots of deaths every year. Back pain is highly avoidable with basic lifestyle changes. I don't know much about MS. My grandma took a weight loss drug called Fen-Phen and had heart issues late in life because of it. It was a low-grade form of speed used by house wives in the 70s for appetite suppression and increased energy. US history leans overly medicalized and drugged IMO.
