If your doctor can't fix your problem then it's time to see another doctor. Nobody should be on painkillers more than a week. Don't let them screw around with you. Ever.
Well, unless you're in pain!
Sure opiates are addictive, but nothing is worse than pain, even addiction.
Over here, doctors are backlashing against painkillers, you practically have to threaten to take your doctor to court for negligence for treating pain, if you have any condition that requires extended painkillers. Luckilly I only needed them for a month.
It's becomming common for patients to grow their own poppies again, in response to this backlash.
