If it means staying away from addiction, I'll pay it. Opiods would scare me if I ever needed that level of pain treatment.

They should, synthethic opioids are VERY enjoyable, VERY risky and SUPER addictive.

I was on Oxy 24/7 for a month following surgery, went through hell.

I count myself as very, very lucky that opioids don’t do that for me at all. I’ve had strong prescriptions for various short-term needs over the years and they just make me a little sleepy. They don’t feel pleasant in any way, in the same way that Motrin doesn’t give me a warm fuzzy feeling either.
