As a cancer patient, I’m in awful chrinic pain. I’ve written to my gov about how this war on medication is hurting those who need it. This extreme view is hurting those who legitimately need help.
Illegal Fentanyl is the problem !!
Both of you need to join a Pain org that are activist. I belong to several. You learn, and you keep up on legislation at both state and Fed level. They don’t just swap stories. They are real Activist. Read some of Roger’s and Red’s articles, both are Pain Advocates, Roger is a patient, and Red’s wife and daughter are the patients.
As for MMJ I won’t smoke, watched my parents die of Lung cancer.
Tried CBD oil, Kratom neither liked my body, then very little does.
While attention is diverted by Russiagate, and other crap the dems are pulling, this has been going on under the radar. I tried posting a couple of articles all I got was heckled about it. People who don’t go through these illnesses or have relatives who have them are very insensitive to the subject. All in the name of Bipartisanship, to funnel money back to the states, counties for all the OD’s, crime, etc. Instead of into treating Patients and finding cures. A Cured Patient is not profitable to PIG PHARMA.
Since I have a heart condition Fenatayl the legal stuff is not viable, slows my heart down to much, Morphine is like having a heart attack. Sessions Advil is a ULCER waiting to happen. I take Valium for 4 health conditions as I go into spasms or seizures or both. I’m 70 and still fighting. May only be phone calls and research, but I’m not stopping. With Gastro issues Opioids are rare as they shut the bowels down. I can get away with a few days, but no more.
