You think horrifyingly painful medical conditions are extremely rare, or you doubt they exist? Or both?
If so (as you suggest above), what a sheltered existence you have led! Consider yourself fortunate that neither you nor your family has suffered from a painful chronic neurological condition, or cancer, or other such disease.
I've had a family member die from opiate overdose, but I've also have two family members die of cancer and who were brutally undertreated for pain because of the current regulatory insanity doctors deal with now.
