Has anyone had the same thing happen to them? My friend said she had the same problem with her husband. Is this common?

Addiction is not linked to MS, but some people are more vulnerable to substance-abuse than others and once this type of people start getting prescription drugs for some reason or the other (MS, accidents, migraines etc.) it can be very difficult for them not to become addicted.

It is not uncommon for people with any serious condition taking any serious drug to become addicted. Once addicted, every addict has a "drug of choice", they will find it.
