Typical government overreach, pain pill mills in West Virginia so everyone, everywhere has to jump through hoops.

My doctor wanted me down to one pain pill a day, basically saying, anything over that would bring scrutiny on both of us

I found cutting them in quarters worked for me, if I took a whole pill in 12 hours I was hurting but by taking a quarter every six hours (with tylenol) it’s all pretty comfortable

Good luck
