[quote=Anonymous]Actually, people with any history of drug abuse are liable to get kicked out of pain management programs. My BIL, who ended up on disability due to his back, was in a pain management program that included methadone for pain relief. He had to be drug tested weekly while he was on it. After a year he ended up smoking some pot and was immediately kicked off the program. That was before there was attention to opiate epidemic, the result of which has been more attention paid to non-opioid methods of pain management and more scrutiny of prescribers of opioids. There have been pain management doctors who have actually been basically drug providers for addicts (knowingly) but they end up in trouble. [/quote]
