>Commission Prices< >Commission Status<Update on my fiance's surgery! He got it two days ago and it was successful!! But he is going though a lot of pain right now since the numbing agent wore off. He explains that it feels like someone is shoving glass shards into his arm muscles and then twisting his arm all around his body. He also says that every touch feels like someone is prodding a knife into his arm slowly. He basically woke up screaming yesterday due to the sudden pain. Apparently the healing process is 10% healed a month. :[
If anyone has had major surgery before and has any advice as to how to deal with the pain or go on with everyday activities, we'd really appreciate it! The ice pack they gave is too heavy so he's using a machine that transfers cold air to a attachable pad. He doesn't know how he's gonna be able to change clothes or shower without lifting his arm up. And the doctors still refused to give painkillers (unless it's advil).
ALSO my drawing tablet is dying... The hole where the usb plugs into is messing up the connection. I basically have to hold it in place to draw and it will be $100 (with shipping) to get it replaced. *UPDATE: WAA THEY JUST PUT IT ON SALE -cries-
I can't open up to any big commissions right now but IF ANYONE WANTS TO BUY AN OLD ADOPT, I'D APPRECIATE IT!!!

My fiance even knows people who have been shot and they never got anything more than over the counter stuff :/
No doubt opiates are an issue, but what an overreaction. There are clearly still times when they are called for, and most people who use them don't get addicted.
This is a real problem with healthcare here. The State is abdicating their responsibility, and denying doctors the right and ability to spend the time and make the right decision for individual patients. Imagine the doctor being put in the impossible position of watching a patient suffer, against everything they've been taught, and the very Hippocratic Oath itself. And that's not to mention that there are alternatives to opiates as well. Ugh.
And they wonder why people are driven to dangerous street drug alternatives.
