Well, what happened for him not to give me anymore was my specialist office visit. The specialist he referred me to "didn't see too much wrong with my knee" [even though in the room, he specifically told me he didn't know how I was still up and walking around] and so my doctor "cut me off" from the pills, so to speak.
