My doctor decided today that my Klonopin dosage needed to be decreased from 1 mg. 3x a day to 2mg. 2x. a day. He says that it is due to addictive nature of the drug. I explained to him that I'm not taking three a day that I'm taking what I feel I need each day and showed him proof that my prescriptions were not being refilled every thirty days. This doctor also takes kickbacks from big Pharma and has no problem prescribing other drugs that can have harmful side effects. I also take a cholesterol medication and a beta blocker due to tachycardia. I am DEPENDENT upon these two medications. One to keep my triglycerides down and one to keep my heart from beating faster than normal. Please explain the difference between DEPENDENCE and ADDICTION. Also, I have Fibromyalgia and this doctor only wants to prescribe medications that were designed for seizures. No prescription pain killers, prescription anti inflammatories or even steroids cause according to him studies say, blah, blah, blah. Well, the other medications aren't working and pain medications are for pain, and I have arthritis pain and bone pain as well and anti-inflammatories are used for arthritis. This CHRISTIAN doctor clearly just wants to see you suffer. Affiliated with Self Medical Group and Self Regional Hospitals. In my opinion, they are the people who create suffering just so that they can profit by it. read more
