Just repeated my post back when original? Asked...lol
Is anyone staying abreast of this whole #opioidscrisis #opioidepidemic #dea #Kolondny going on?
And, are you concerned about losing your medications or have you already lost them?
I know that they are bad people out there, but we are not one of them, and yet we get treated like we are bad, because we are in pain and what helps us is being decided by people who do not feel what we do

At one point I was on 12 T3’s a day for the lower back pain from the collapsing discs; especially S1-L5. The next step was to go on Opiods (hope I spelled it right) anyway. I decided to go for a breast reduction and pain management instead. Anyone else?
I did all that

When I moved from the L. A. area near the ocean to Las Vegas, I noticed a dramatic decrease in joint pain (I was diagnosed with degenerative arthritis and DJD in 1982).

Spread it around, people need to know this is what is being forced on us
Has anyone else's pain management doctor gone so far as to suggest that PAS, physician assisted suicide, is "an option" for treating your intractable pain? Since when has this " treatment" been acceptable!?
Time for a new Dr. That Dr should be reported

I tried many yrs of alternitives to opioids . After 17 yrs of safe pain treatment with opioids will I have hope before I die to again have opioid painrelief again at age 63?
When you say safe are you meaning you always took as prescribed with no accidental overdoses or other problem accidental instances. If so I don’t see why at 63 you would be denied proper pain relief… read more
I am collecting information in an attempt to contact those that are making our laws about opioid addiction. I have already contacted some law makers. When the new proposals are announce, I want to be very ready to get active in trying to be sure that those of us in chronic pain are not ignored in the process. Please be very specific if you feel that you have already been affected by new state laws or the national CDC Guidelines for pain managers and their use of opioid. Thanking you all in… read more
