"i was hurt at work 4 years ago, had 5 surgeries then a spinal stimulator placed. i have been on methadone for 4 years and roxicodone for break through pain, i believe its a lot better then taking a bunch of pain killers that aren&#039;t going to work in the long run. methadone has given me some of my life back, not enough that i can go back to work, that is my ultimate goal."
