Tough question, and I guess if you were certain the pain would be with you for the rest of your life, and that you would have a doctor to supply you that whole time, the addiction might be worth it. I guess it basically comes down to choice between a giant douche and a turd sandwich. Neither is a preferred option.
Yep. I couldn't really function on opiates either, so that would have been the end of my career, with a string of consequences that were unacceptable to me. As I'm not a fan of turd sandwiches, I'm exploring other options, including some that carry a large woo-woo component.
Medicinal marijuana helps, though I can only really use it at the end of the day for reasons that are probably obvious.
