I saw both shows and Painkillers really drove it home with impacted families opening each episode. No one was safe from these insanely addictive drugs. Rush Limbaugh had a back injury, developed an addiction problem, and was arrested for prescription fraud. Too bad he didn’t use that experience to highlight this more when he was alive. Unfortunately I think he was embarrassed since it hurt his political position on drugs. Everyone has an ego and no one ever wants to admit when they were wrong. That seems to also keep many doctors locked into their protocols as well.
