I have been less satisfied with my Blue Cross Drug Policy. I have a rotator cuff injury that is not correctable with surgery. I occasionally have a flare of pain if I do something that aggravates it. I am prescribed Tramadol to keep and use as needed. I checked my policy and I am prescribed much less than the maximum dosage listed on my policy yet I had a problem getting more than 7 pills at a time. It is clear from my prescribing history that I am not a drug seeker with multiple doctors prescribing pain meds. I was treated more like a criminal trying to get this approved.&lt;/p&gt;
