I’m tired of this makebelieve insurrection. FBI, you really need to examine the DEMs here and the lies they have told. Why lie if you don’t have something to hide?
Has anyone in this country ever thought that the reason that the amount of opioids prescribed is because we have PAIN here on an epidemiological scale and that needs to be addressed?
Why does the United States citizen hurt so much inside AND OUT?
We are not for the most part
It’s funny. I’m supposed to go to an “addiction” doctor for chronic pain medications. I’m not an addict. I went three days without pain meds even though it caused me to go into CRPS CRISIS and I’m still paying for it. What would you do if you were expected to go to a psychiatrist
Okay. For those who do not “believe” in opiates as a treatment for pain, what do you suggest be used for moderate to severe pain? I’m open to suggestions.
1. I have epilepsy/migraine. No ketamine (I have grand-mal, med cont.)
2. I have CRPS. No nerve meds.
3. No NSAIDs. IBD
GO!
Addiction to Opioids is horrible. I’m in no way saying it doesn’t or can’t happen.
What I’m saying is, do not judge a chronic pain or intractable pain patient as an addict or addict-to-be simply because they are prescribed opioids medically in order to be able to withstand
Whatever happened to “do no harm?” Or “patient care?” When did torture and suffering become the norm in American healthcare and the practice of medicine? All because of an asinine agenda to fight addiction that rarely exists in monitored medicine?
And in the meantime the
I’m fighting a desperate low right now. Please pray for me. Not in a good place right now. I’ve realized how broken and splintered we are as a group. Hope has waned. I am truly alone in my fight and nobody I am talking to is listening. Nobody cares if I suffer and die. This world
I’m wasting away. My legs and back have lost 30-40% muscle mass and my pain continues to climb. I don’t sell or seek illegal drugs. I don’t want to even take legal opiate prescriptions. Why do I need to? Because they are the only medication I can. Any anti-seizure or nerve meds

I think this shows strength of character, empathy for what it’s like to be the odd person out, and love of the sport. Thanks for showing there is more to a person than general expectations.
What is pain? What is it like to live with non-stop high level sleep stealing pain? The kind of pain that keeps you awake all night and nothing can take away?
No medicine, soak, soft bed, or distraction by reading or writing a good book will alleviate even a tiny bit.

and their infiltration into the American Healthcare system in 1971 was to STOP the Narcotic War. Remember? But no, it has had the exact opposite effect and now with the increase in law
Now that MDs have reduced opioid prescribing, deadly ODs should have declined, right?
Wrong; ODs have increased by 900%
There was never a prescription painkiller epidemic

You see dependent and addiction is not the same thing. I’m “dependent” but I’m functioning. I don’t destroy the lives of everybody I touch. I don’t steal from my family and strangers for my next “fix.” Or try to get every tooth pulled from my head for another pain pill.

Many suffer NEEDLESSLY with pain. I give kudos to those who make it through each day with the courage to show up on the other side of the torture.
Please do not let the pain win or those who believe the idiocies that pain is curable in all cases through mental health.

So because my profile pic is smiling and I’m holding paintbrushes as well as the fact as I’m fat, I’m the reason I’m in pain. Mmm. I was wondering when some IDIOT was going to say that. How is a chronic rare disease pain patient supposed to look when their disease is their life?

I feel like I’m being executed one painful day at a time until i have no choice but to give in. I’m at that point. Nobody will hear my cries for help. Nobody will listen to my need for relief. I’m just another statistic. Another number. Another blip in the negative column.
@ElonMuskAOC
I don’t think anybody should be banned just because people don’t like what they say. It is a first amendment right to say your mind. Breaking the law in that capacity? No. Prove to me how he did that then we’ll talk why he shouldn’t be here. I personally don’t think he did that.

There is a point that the autonomic nervous system takes over in ANY LIFE-THREATENING situation. A person at this point has no control over the body’s functions including breathing.

Pain treatment has been reduced to a judicial process. I have NEVER been examined by a pain doctor. Simply asked questions as if I’m visiting my parole officer and abiding by a judicial order. I do a set order of guidelines, I get my medications, I don’t, I’m sentenced to death.

@ForensicMHSA
Nobody will take my case. They say it’s my fault that I’m hurting. I’m not doing what the doctors say. I’m the problem. I’ve been advocating for 5 years amidst CRPS pain of 7 or 8/10. Now I’m in crisis. So if no one will help help me, until I’m dead that is, I hope they help you.
Doctors who are not managing chronic and severe intractable pain, you wonder why your patients are not responding or “getting better?” I have some enlightenment for you. If you really want to hear it.

I think whoever came up with the idea for the CDC opioid guidelines should be put on that labor machine and it cranked up as high it can go for 3 days straight.

I’m one of those who was wronged. I’ve been told to get a lawyer but no lawyer around here will represent me. Too afraid? I don’t know. So I was told to file a complaint with Medicare and Medicaid, and then complain to the state medical board. Oh and lastly join a support group.
@pain_lyn
Oh and YOU have done nothing wrong for being in pain. Or for asking for something to legitimately ease that pain. It’s the DEA that is guilty of forcing the American people to search for pain relief outside of their legal parameters. Mmm, what a thought?
#entrapment

@pain_lyn
Umm. I only have one question. Why didn’t your provider offer something for pain?
After all, if he was doing his job correctly, he would ascertain a need for it . Examination and diagnosis IS still his job, is it not? Of course, he could not acknowledge pain is part of medicine.

So, they won’t give a chronic pain patient benzodiazepines OR opioids for their severe pain instead making them suffer until they end up at the ER where they are mocked, ignored and lied to until they are dosed t oblivion on… benzodiazepines and a bunch of crap to shut them up.
@JaymetheRN
I thank you. I wish more nurses would go to bat for the patients. It would have saved me two months of a CRPS CRISIS that almost cost me my life.

Pain clinics made to prescribe less by intimidation by DEA. Most if not all pain patients including rare disease and “exempt” cut back to unmanageable dosing to live quality lives. Most suffering in agony, not able to work, walk, or function. Reduced to much less or shadows of

He’s NOT an expert at least as a practitioner of pain which he professes to be. He practiced as a psychiatrist for a few years and had only 1 star reviews from his patients.
@CMerandi
It makes my pain worse. When I say this, I get mocked and condemned. Evidently the advocates for marijuana don’t understand that relaxation and calm actually perpetuates MORE pain with CRPS. I have nothing to distract or keep me from feeling the agony.
@JoeAllenNewman
I’m so sorry you had to go there. I wish I could spare anybody that kind of pain. I’ve often begged God to send it my way. If I have to feel it, why should anyone else.
I would like a doctor of mine to NOT be statistically driven. Why? Because if it was up to the statistics, I would not have an ADR to nitrile. I would not have developed CRPS type 2. I would not have had a successful SCS replacement. I may as well be dead too according to every

No comprehension of pain receptors and the how the brain works. Did these doctors go to school? Have they studied the brain and how it processes pain?

It helps with fever, and inflammation NOT SEVERE TRAUMATIC PAIN. yes, that means nerve impact and bone pain like Percocet and most narcotics do. Anyone who says differently does not know how the Opioid receptors work.
I won’t lie. My husband and I have considered this option if either one of us lose pain care. We both have severe pain from rare disease and have to fight for adequate, not decent, adequate pain therapy to maintain manageable QOL. It is overwhelming for my husband,my caregiver.
