Our weekly round-up of letters published in the Dothan Eagle.

There is a drug problem in West Virginia. The courts and the government are trying to solve it. As I understand it, there was a similar problem in Alabama.

Personally, I am from Florida so let me start there. I am 77 years old and have degenerative bone disease in my spine, so I am in serious pain most of the time. In the last 20 years I have gone through a great many tests, physical therapy, and many injections. I was also on a regimen of pain medication. Every three months I was given a prescription for a month supply and two refills which you can only get refilled every 30 days.

Well Big Brother decided to step in and take control by saying no more auto refills. I have no idea what this was supposed to do. All this did was cause patients to need 12 appointments a year instead of four appointments a year. The doctors now charged Medicare for 12 visits instead of four and had three times the patients to see. This didn’t change how many pills I got. It only added to the waste of my time, the doctor’s time, and caused more of a drain on Medicare.Now I live in Alabama.
