He quit using alcohol and illegal drugs over 4 yrs. ago. However, now he has a health condition that warrants pain medication, but here's what his Dr's are giving him: 10mg. Lortab, 10 mg. Valiums, Soma, Lyrica, and long and short acting Morphine. He's not dying, like cancer, or anything like that - he has disc problems in his neck and back. But, his Dr's don't know he has this past history with the other stuff. He's given up working for now, and almost all other activities, unless you include sleeping and watching dvds. I am angry and confused. I don't know what I should do. He's considering surgery I think, but then again, I wonder how legit he is on that. I know he's in a lot of pain, but this seems to be an extreme amount of meds. What should I do? And, no, I don't want to leave him, we've been together for a long time.
