Today, after getting my wisdom teeth pulled, I woke up from a much needed nap realizing I should take my pain medication. My mother then told me she had thrown them out so I wouldn't get addicted and become a drug dealer. FML

Today, my mother-in-law flushed my pain medicine because she believes I’ve been using it too long and I’m addicted. I had surgery four days ago. FML

Today, my older, pill-addicted brother, came over to visit with me. After he left, I realized all my Vicodin was gone. I got my wisdom teeth removed two hours ago. FML

Today, I found my mom throwing my very expensive and important medication down the toilet. She thought I was doing drugs. FML

Today, I got my wisdom teeth out. Due to the drugs they gave me I felt nauseous. When I went to the bathroom as a precaution I did not throw up. Instead I passed out face first in the toilet. FML

Today, I woke up with one of the worst migraines I've had in months. My mother (who thinks I'm a hypochondriac) began to scream at me about "making up an illness". When I asked for my meds, she called me an addict, and dumped my $300 prescription down the sink. FML

Today, my mom told me she's a drug addict, sold my bed to buy meth, and then lectured me about how I should be okay with it. FML

Today, I came home from surgery to remove my tonsils. It's a much better surgery to have as a kid, because when you get older it's much more painful. I didn't know my mom liked pain killers. I do now, because I have none left and I haven't even taken any yet. FML

Today, after having surgery, I called my family to tell them I was out, safe, and on my way home. The first thing they asked was if they could "borrow" some of my pain meds. FML

Today, I got my wisdom teeth removed and took the pain medicine that the oral surgeon prescribed for me before bed. The pain actually did go away for the most part, until my stomach decided to betray me and make me throw up, forcing my jaw to open more than it could after surgery. FML

Today, I got all four of my wisdom teeth taken out. I happen to be allergic to all types of pain medication. FML

I would throw out something she needs.

This is your cue to keep your mom up all night because of how much pain you're in. I'd scream, cry, moan etc. to annoy her and get her to see how asinine taking your meds is. If that fails, crawl into bed with her in the middle of the night when she's fast asleep and cry as loud as you can in her ear. That'll teach her.

My monthly medication is worth $725 on the streets . I unfortunately have to take it to be able to walk. It would be really nice if I didn't slip in the shower and mess up my back so bad. Having to take narcotics is no fun!

I've been in the same exact boat when I had my teeth surgically removed. Sorry chap. Mothers are simply ridiculous.

Or maybe OP's Mom claimed she threw them out but really just wanted them for herself ?

What a ass,does she not know those cost u money and are needed.and if she was that concerned about u becoming an addict then she could just give them to u at the times stated on the medicine.

I've had my wisdom teeth out recently and as long as you rinse with warm salt water, you should be okay with OTC pain killers :) that's all I had, but I got express ones to make sure they kicked in quickly. Hope you feel better soon OP.
