Pain
"I am a 70 year old woman. I have spinal stenosis. Each day I wake up thinking I won&#039;t need to take Vicodin today, but I do. I take 2 when the pain starts and it always takes the pain away. If I wait too long to see if the &quot;PAIN WILL GET BETTER BY ITSELF&quot; I&#039;m only fooling myself. It never gets better by itself! My doctor tells me not to worry about addiction, that he knows how often I take it and he keeps track. So I let him do it."
