Description
Summary:Arnie currently uses opiates, which he says are for back pain. When at work, Arnie will sometimes smokes marijuana after taking an Oxycontin. After his girlfriend was concerned about his use of opioids, Arnie attempted to stop his prescription for two weeks and instead began taking a smaller dose from a coworker’s prescription. While using this lesser dose, Arnie experienced severe pain. Though Arnie is unable to stop taking his opiates for longer than one or two days, he does not feel guilty or concerned because he follows his doctor’s prescription. Arnie has not neglected his work responsibilities as a result of his opiate use; rather he says it is the back pain that prevents him from functioning.
