   Apparently I have brought up a very controversial topic...which really was not my intent but I can clearly see how people have read my post in a variety of ways. Needless to say, I am not an evil witch of a nurse that believes all patients with pain...

   TU RN, out of all the responses to my post I think you understand what I was trying to get across the most. People who have addiction problems are very time consuming and many times take up a huge amount of my time; I have other patients who need my...

    LadyFree28, another post said something about withholding pain medication...I am not out to fight with you or single you out, I just wanted to make it clear I do not withhold pain medication from my patients. If a blog is going to be this aggressive...
