In ccrn original post he talked about how in his ER they have stopped giving Demerol to the drug seekers that come in and that instead they offer them toradol. Air’s reply was to ask what was wrong with toradol because it worked for him. Demerol in addition to being a strong narcotic is known for essentially getting people high. Toradol is great at relieving pain however it is not a narcotic and it won’t get people high. When drug seekers come into the ER their goal is to get narcotics and get high and not to have their pain relieved. That is why drug seekers get pissed when you give them toradol and not a narcotic for their “pain.” In my reply to Air’s post I was trying to explain why certain people don’t like getting prescribed toradol. I waste a large amount of time at work is dealing with people that come in who’s only goal is to get prescribed narcotics because they want to get high and they need to feed their addiction, and this makes me bitter about the subject. This is why my post had the attitude you picked up on. I was not trying to insinuate anything about Air or anyone else and I was not trying to insinuate that just because toradol doesn’t work for someone’s pain that they are a drug seeker.
