I think some of you missed the point. Here in the state of Kentucky, doctors can write prescriptions for narcotics but by state law, NONE can be refilled unless the doctor writes a new one. This is new to control the abuse of painkillers. As far as cancer patients, it doesn't matter if they are addicted to the massive amounts of meds, they are dying. Unfortunately the people who have addictive personalities and have addiction problems, they cannot take pain meds, cluster headaches or not!! I know, my husband is one of them. This will be his first year of having a cycle w/out meds. Only preventatives.
