On today's episode we talk about the issue of pain control & just why your doctor is afraid to prescribe you adequate pain medication. The motivation behind this episode was two-fold, on my recent Lunch and Learn survey it was a topic that the community wanted hear about (the topic of opioid use & pain control) as well as the most recent celebratory death of Mac Miller, a well known hip hop artists. Listen to the episode today to see why physicians everywhere are so hesitant to prescribing opioid medications & the impact it has had on the medical community. \xa0
