Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, I think being black and female hamstrings me in that particular disguise.

I hate people. You'd think I was asking for shit that took effort or ran risks. Or didn't have experienced medical approval. You know.

Guessed right. Original script was for 2mg of dilaudid. Do they not even read anymore?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesus christ. You would think having records would help.

Apparently these records say I have been sufficiently apnic multiple times that I was administered narcan to reverse the effects of the dilaudid. Really? She was a little too smug assuring me that perhaps I don't remember because I ALMOST DIED. But you know what bitch? I'm actually paying attention here. Every visit is important to me. My life revolves around the outcome.

If you all gave me narcan and I don't know about it now, I never knew. And that's not responsible doctoring.

Also, I've been threatened with narcan to keep me in line (seriously), and that nurse took pains to assure me it was a horrible experience I would regret with every fibre of my being.

Or, you know, forget all about it. Six of one…

Jesus Christ.

My mother's migraine doctor cut her off of her meds for drug seeking. If I ever happen to meet that man I swear to god I will not be responsible for my actions.

And! A parting note in my discharge "Please see your pain specialist because the ER is not a good way to manage chronic pain."

Oh, my fucking god! Upon further consideration, you are totally right. I will stop doing it this way ASAP, and get my life righted lickety split.

Man, if it weren't for some people, I'd still have problems. But, no more!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, God, ita, what an utter nightmare. I don't understand what is wrong with these people. You make these regular visits, you're extremely well informed about your complex issues, and you have a lengthy history documented by a competent, reputable local doctor who can detail exactly what's been tried when and what works and doesn't, and I cannot for the life of me understand why these other people consistently cannot listen to and read the history and follow the damn instructions. It's just pointless cruelty to put you through the same stupid wringer every single time.
