[quote=Anonymous]I have seen people become addicted in a matter of days. Ive seen people who are on chronic narcotics but are not addicted. It's a very case by case issue. Unfortunately, I've also seen prescribers stereotype and feed right into an addiction. They are more apt to believe the pain of soccer mom Sally with 3 kids at home and a steady job and continue prescribing her IV Dilaudid while they investigate what could be causing her pain over underemployed Bob who does a lot of hard labor and is more rough around the edges. I've seen it time and time again. I've done insane amounts of documentation and discussions with doctors to try to get them to see the whole picture, but sometimes it falls on deaf ears. [/quote]
