I have had chronic pain for many years. I have had 2 knee replacements and have a bad hip and intermediate back pain. the new knee is only 3 months old and feels like grinding glass most of the time. I have spent more time and money than I know constantly trying to justify being on Norco for almost 10 years. The pain is constant. I work 12 hour days on our ranch and am very active. Now I am having a new provider constantly make me feel embarrassed at my need for my pain to be somewhat doable so I can lead the active life I am used to.
