Help !!! MY husband is tormenting me to get him Drugs

My husband is addicted to Opiates, and he promised me fo the hundreth time he would quit after he had a biopsy on his foot. He went to his regular Dr. on Sat, got 20 vicodins, then Tuesday was his biopsy. The Dr that did the biopsy said he wouldn't be in much pain just put ice on it an take tylenol. But my husband talked him into giving him tylenol 3, 20 of them and he either finished them already or is craving more opiates.Tells me he is in such pain he can't bear it. I know he's not.He wants more drugs.He wants ME to go to the Dr to get him more vicodins. His Dr won't give him anymore till Saturday, and that's only 20. He is following me around telling me if I loved him how can I see him suffer so much. He won't leave me alone, and is driving me crazy.He took off work 2 weeks for this biopsy, it's only 1/2 inch wide. I work out of my house and there is no escaping him. I have 39 days clean, and It's so hard for me to deal with.

Honestly your husband could be in great pain.  Everyones threshold for pain is different.  Maybe he down need pain meds until it heals.  If his behavior continues after it is healed then its time to start talking about him being addicted and what his options are.  Be safe and smart.

Stay strong on your position here ..... you already know that nothing good will come if you get weak..... Since it also seems to be everyone elses opinion also, I will sneak in a quick -"what a wuss......" and let go at that.  But in a little more compassionate stance I would have to say that this is hardest test of life on earth for a great many people. Way far from the hardest thing that I have ever done .... but it does get honorable mention .....  It really sounds like you are going to need a "meeting of the minds" or whatever you can put together before much longer. It really doesnt get a great deal better from this point until he deals with himself.........

He really needs to grow up by the sound of it. perhaps you should tell his dr's of his addiction problems so that he will be cut off completely. your hubby sounds like a big baby. if you don't help him straighten up now he will just get much worse.
sorry you are having to go through this.
congrats on being clean yourself. he should know better than to put you through this.
stay strong for yourself(and maybe give him some tough love).

Nick.
