>I was told recently that due to the tightening of the reins on opioids it has just made it difficult for patients who really need them to get their meds.

This actually started sometime under Obama. They began treating everyone like potential criminals. The tight dispensing has been pushing real pain sufferers into heroin. When I went in for minor surgery, the doc told me he was only allowed to prescribe five days of pain meds. I didn't need any. If I ended up in pain for awhile, I would need to see the doc every five days for a new prescription. It's crazy.
