You really need to chill out and stop being a Ignorant Kool Aid Drinker.. And do the reading. First you need to learn the meanings of Pain, as there are classes of Pain. Short Term is Acute you don’t need more than Tylenol and Ice Packs to treat, Chronic is a few weeks to a year, this may require up to 1 week on as low as possible Prescription Pain Med and No you won’t become addicted on 1 week of Prescription Pain Meds. Intractable Pain is a Sub Set of Chronic Pain, it can only be treated with a Prescription Narcotic Pain Med. This Sub Set Pain last 365 for Decades, it usually requires daily pain management and up to 150 mme Morphine as it goes into the Cancer pain range. Many can manage with 30 mg of NORCO to reduce the pain level from 10 to 5. Take away the Pain Medication you put these Patients in wheelchairs, bedridden, home bound and on DSSI. Where they once were actually functioning working members of society. They then have heart attacks or commit suicide when the pain becomes to much to bear.

What you are advocating is a TOTAL BAN On Pain Meds, Anesthesia that is necessary for surgeries. Pain Medication is necessary for War Wounded especially if you’ve been hit by a IED and now have a hole in your gut, or a limb blown off. The BITTER NEVER TRUMPER CHRIS CHRISTIE RECOMMENDED BOTH KOLODNY AND REDFIELD, WHO WERE VETTED BY THE TOP RNC TRUMP HATERS. SO ALL THIS COULD BE BLAMED ON TRUMP.

You have Drank the Kool Aid that Redfield, Kolodny and the PROP committee is peddling. So do get a better education and learn this was all a Hoax, Con Job to fund broke cites, counties, and states. Not 1 dime of that $8.5 Billion went to Pain Patients. It went to Street Junkies for Suboxone, clean needles, clean shoot up rooms, with a Narcan Monitor a Liberals Dream Have your Illicit drugs, get treated like kings/queens while real Patients are now treated as Criminals. Every month a $2000 P test to get less medication than you were on fail 1 test then you are totally cut off. Mention you took 2 days of 7.5 Mg NORCO which is 8 pills for a Jaw Re-sculpture, and you maybe facing a P test screening of $60,000 or more as they will test for every blooming legal and illicit drug out there.

The most painful cancers, nerve damage can only be treated with a Prescription Pain Medication. 100,000 people die of Tylenol OD’s a year. All the other OTC’s are GI and Liver, Kidney destruction drugs. Tylenol is meant for TEN DAYS only AT WHAT IS STATED ON THE BOTTLE.

Let me introduce you to Canadacare.

This is Shannon McLeod. Abandoned Patient. No doctor in Canada will touch him. He’s DYING and he just turned 50. He won’t live to see 51. Glace Bay man with incurable condition can’t find a doctor

Kolodny is a Addiction Shrink who pushes Suboxone which is more addictive than Heroin and harder to kick. He also testifies for both Pharma and against Pharma. Made about $500,000 for his J & J testimony. Which will be used to Sue Gun Manufactures out of business. Pandora’s box was opened with that ruling.

Redfield own 37 yr old son OD’d on Heroin/Fentanyl laced Illicit drug, drugs and musicians seem to be a ‘normal’ problem.
