The cost for everyone is different. The same is true regarding the gains.

 

The cost to my patients is they give up their growing rights in return for a consistent supply of quality medicine of a reasonable amount. My gain is in being able to grow, have legal access, and to increase my knowledge and skills.

 

It has been well worth it, I have learned a lot.

 

Government, regulations, and money does not fit in with the scenario of my patients and me. I don't see what they could do to make an improvement to my patients. I suppose if insurance were to cover an unlimited supply, but that would end up being a cost to the tax payers and a reduction in quality and safety.
