Moderators PowerButchi Posted October 11, 2016 Moderators Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Are American painkillers more hardcore than here? I know when I megafucked my leg I just got 30/500 Co-codomol and 300mg ibuprofen. When I went door-to-teeth with a car last month, the doctor prescribed me as much oxycodone as necessary (12 pills, don't remember the strength) with a refill if necessary.Hillbilly heroin for a split lip? Suppose that's a knock on effect on the Pharma culture of America. I remember just after I did my knee, like 4 hours or so and was still in majors in A&E and they took me off Morphine there and put me back on just gas and air they said "painkillers are only to take the edge of it off." Obviously massively different culture there as there is money in it Edited October 11, 2016 by PowerButchi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted October 11, 2016 Moderators Share Posted October 11, 2016 Does Japan have a thriving womens scene? Not for years. GAEA shut it's doors yonks back and that was hardly packing them in. It's a niche "bus fair home" thing now as opposed to the bank someone like Paige could make.

Paid Members air_raid Posted October 11, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 11, 2016 Yeah, it has a scene, that's about it. There are far more female promotions than in the west, and SOME of them draw a bigger crowd than your average Shimmer show SOMETIMES. It's a decent gig in that thinking about some of the fairly average workers from the UK and the States that have got booked for a few tours over there, she'd be presented as the biggest foreign star in years, but she wouldn't exactly be padding the retirement fund.

Obviously massively different culture there as there is money in it Massively different pharma culture & a completely different doctor/patient relationship. When I started working in pharma a colleague told me to watch 'The Oxycontin Express' documentary on youtube, massive eye opener! If I go to the docs & they tell me I don't need a prescription then I deem that as a win. In the US, because prescription drugs are advertised on TV you have the situation where a patient asks/tells the doctor what drugs they'd like. If you went to your GP asking for Oxycontin you'd be suspected as a smackhead immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Has there been any major health issues since its been put into place or any thats slipped through the net with severe consequences? Genuinely a discussion point. Benoit for one. Since the Wellness was brought in I meant? I didn't think it was around that long? It was around for 18 months by the time Benoit died. And he had a T:E ratio of 59:1 when autopsied. If the Wellness policy wasn't a joke at the time, he should have been caught & suspended - but he wasn't. Anything above a 6:1 ratio is a failed test. Also, 11 of the early Wellness Policy suspensions came for the government investigation of Signature Pharmacy, not from drug test failures. So these guys were using and either not being tested, or passing the tests. Not much of a policy. It's a lot more serious now, but in the earlier years it was a joke. Cheers. Didn't know any of that, I assumed it was brought in after his death, my memory is shit. It was brought in after Eddie Gurerro's death in 2005, so by the time it properly got off the ground will have been early 2006, so your looking at it being in place for a good 18 months or so before Benoit got a bit murdery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First one to stick his hand up was Kurt, who asked if prescription pills were going to be allowed. He was gone 6 months later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members FLips Posted October 11, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 11, 2016 That seems to be a popular consensus. A combination of that and a young girl in puppy love with an older man and not thinking straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
