0:54 no, EVERYONE was not prescribing opioids for EVERYTHING in the '90s and '00s. I'm sure there were over-prescribed and pill mills but those were in the minority even back then. Nowadays, the opioid hysteria has gotten so insane that you will probably not receive even a mild opioid for a limited time after a major dental procedure or even after surgery.
Chronic pain patients are being forced off of the opioids that give them quality of life. Some chronic pain patients turn to the streets out of sheer desperation for relief. And many are unaliving themselves due to unrelenting pain.
When will this inhumane torture end?!?
You sound like you are as angry as I am. They have beat the opioid bs to death. If you do some research and I feel like you have, you have likely seen that since they have stepped in and started telling grown adults with chronic pain well your just gonna have to deal with your chronic pain the death rate is higher than it was before the dea screwed everything up. It’s due to suicide and desperate people in terrible never ending pain turning to the streets for help but they keep all that quiet. The only way this will get changed is for us to call, write letters and what would be greater still for groups of us to go to the dea and just refuse to stay quiet any longer until this is changed and we demand help or start getting lawsuits filed for suffering, not being able to work and being punished for things that the majority of us aren’t guilty of. I’ve called the dea several times since 2016 and yes we have had a few shouting calls. What makes me furious is the fact that over the first half of the early 1900’s you could get opioid medicine for pain right off the shelf at any drugstore. That should still be the case today. We might as well be living in a country with a dictatorship and I feel the government needs to keep out of our business period. I appreciate your thoughts on this jetpretty1613 and I hope you will keep fighting for our rights. I will be fighting in the south. Take care and hang in there.
Did Oxy 30mg for about a year never really abused it for a high and it was great I was even more productive and social at work got off cold turkey and no withdrawals or very mild if any with that being said I can see how it could cause damage if abused but at that point the individual has to take responsibility
Yes some doctors didn't prescribed percocet for high cholesterol.. yeah.
@@pablobeast1I'm sorry are you saying you were under the influence of that drug and that amount while at work?
What did you do for work?
Did you inform your boss and co workers?
@@USA92 Im a pilot for American Airlines I fly a Boeing 787 but I don’t touch the Oxy anymore I stick to meth now helps me stay focused on those long flights
My mother is suffering from chronic pain. Frankly, I don’t want anyone who doesn’t have chronic pain to sit on these FDADEA decision making committees to make any decisions as to strength, type of medication or delivery of pain medication. None of these people are enduring the day to day suffering. Chronic pain patients are not creating addicts. The open border is!
For real. Or I had some doctor say " well I broke my shoulder once and didn't develop chronic pain , so your chronic pain is probably not real" like wtf ?
I agree I'm sorry for ur mom there is nothing worse than pain. Please check her sugar levels high amounts of pain can destroy the body it causes high cortisol and dumps glucose giving high sugar blood levels which can destroy ur body they don't tell u because most drs just don't care but reducing the blood sugar levels can help reduce pain it's a never ending cycle that causes it self
You are 100% right! The Gov't "War on Opioids" has only targeted legitimate chronic pain sufferers and made it impossible to even get pain relief in a hospital- I won't bore you with my current issue, but it is serious and a local hospital prescribed Ibuprofen and Tylenol for my injury, on top of ignoring the root cause of my problem.
Until the tons of Mexican and Chinese Fentanyl coming in through the southern border is stopped , the deaths from Fentanyl can only increase. What the (SO-CALLED) Health Care System is doing by refusing to allow chronic pain patients their needed medications is creating more of a market for illegal drugs- the average pain patient will do whatever it takes to avoid withdrawal . Detox from long term opiate/opioid drugs can be fatal, I know 3 who have died from withdrawal....
I'm sorry. We need closed border. Too many people buying instead of Dr visit.
I hope that those who need this medication are able to get their medication so they can have a better quality of life. I have known many people who have suffered in severe chronic pain screaming for relief from the stabbing electric ⚡️ shock of pain that will make the strongest fall to their knees. Don’t let our people suffer at the hands of those who have no credibility in the medical profession.
No we are not getting any pain meds still. And doctors won't even talk to us about it..
Hey, thanks for your support! ❤❤❤❤❤❤✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻 It’s truly appreciated! It’s been a very long seven years of this crap prescribing.
@@Galaxylord2. My chronic pain doctor now has me on belbuca.600mcg. It’s supposed to be prescribed. What is the day, every 12 hours, but it only lasted me five hours. So she honestly added another dose so I get one film in my mouth every eight hours. I have really bad dry mouth so it doesn’t want to dissolve in my mouth with a crap so I use xylem else to help with that and it does wonders for my dry mouth for size helping the medicine dissolve.
I hope you’re getting some pain meds now 😢. It sure has been a thing, hasn’t it?
Hopefully who ever made the new Opioid guideline they get into an accident or injured where they need to use Opioids and the doctor denied them. To make them feel the same way as us the one we truly need them. i have a painful hip pain 2 broken toes nothing. This is unfair. We will suffer to the day we die do to their laws.
I hope whatever politician made these policies restricting pain medication, falls and breaks there leg, or Injures their back or neck or has open wounds the size of a silver dollars and they go to the doctor looking for help and that doctor refuses them treatment like they have done to the rest of us. I hope it is the worst pain you can imagine and you have to live with it a long time with NO help like you have done to the rest of us.....
Damage has been done already. Tell the DEA to listen and go after the illicit fentanyl drug dealers instead of drs. Not one Od on Rx meds in the last 3 yrs in the northeast
Exactly it's been fentanyl from the beginning. But as a chronic pain patient I can tell you I and many others are still paying for the fentanyl epidemic.
Doctors are unwilling to even discuss pain control at all and threatened to dismis me from their practice if I continue to ask for any kind of relief.
Most of us are at a complete loss.
Lost trust in any Doctors.
Exactly
Exactly. I’m wondering why. Are they just stupid or working for someone who is making a lot of money. Who gave the order to do this to doctors? It is that person who we all need to watch. They are a murderer psychopath. If a regular looking dude decided to make a street drug to kill the homeless population and others, we would want him in jail. Or if he knew they were getting in the country and instructed all his “friends” to get it and sell it and give him all the money. You know a cult leader. People would be shocked and stuck to tv and RUclips to hear about the “true crime”
The entire situation hurts my heart. 💔
The new flesh eating drug “Tranq” is easy to get. Clean heroin isn’t allowed 🤔
Absolutely 💯!! But the DEA won't do that cause it's wayyy easier for them to SlaM Docs + patients and say "Hey, look at how good we did and the safety we implemented by preventing these dangerous drugs from entering the market!" Meanwhile 5,000 tons of Fentanyl analogs move across various parts of the border SMH
Hopefully who ever made the new Opioid guideline they get into an accident or injured where they need to use Opioids and the doctor denied them.

And now seniors in chronic pain are being treated like the teenager addict
CDC is not authorized develop guidelines for pain medications
The group was headed by kolodney who was invested in addiction treatment centers. Conflict of interest.
@@stevenwagner9912 oh believe me, there were TONS of that for this situation. The fact that the DEA was given the green light to do this after the yellow journalism exposing the “Florida Pill Mills” is disgusting. All so someone could play hero.
Yes, they absolutely are. A doctor has to obey the law, and deal with their state medical board. Beyond that their employer may set other rules too. The guidelines are there for doctors *to be guided by,* not dictating the care their patients receive. Why even bother taking the time to say something so obvious irrelevant to the conversation??
FDA IS THE ONLY CONGRESSIONALLY MANDATED FEDERAL AGENCY WITH AUTHORITY TO SET DOSES OF ALL Rx DRUGS. FOR OPIATE PAIN MEDICINE THERE IS NO MAXIUM DOSE
@@stevenwagner9912yeah I’ve heard them addiction centers are drug hubs soo if people are getting pain meds from doctors they don’t need illegal drugs from the drug hub. See how that works. Drug king pens are buying addiction centers and using them for drug trafficking- not saying they are giving them to the patients but that how they hide and funnel the money. I forgot the guys name but he owns many of them and he is a drug lord. All across the United States this is taking place. Now u understand why they don’t want u to have meds ? They want u to go to the streets for it.
It is not any of the CDC OR DEA’s business what kind of medication we take as grown adults. I’m 54 years old with severe chronic pain in my back from two failed surgeries, no cartilage in my knees or shoulder joints. Diabetic stage 2, cancer etc. I n my opinion, when it comes to pain, NO ADULT should need a prescription to get any pain medicine they want PERIOD. If I have the money to walk in and give me 60 oxycodone 20’s and 60 klonopin for my panic attacks and stress, It should be bottled up and sold to me right then with no script or any questions. Not to mention the attitudes I have had to deal with at pharmacies. As soon as you mention pain meds and Walgreens are exceptionally bad at this but they quickly get a smart attitude and look at you like trash. We can change this people but we have to come together and make a lot of noise. I’ve had enough of this pain myself and I am going to do something. I don’t know what but there’s a answer to this and I’m going to find it.
Exactly. I do blame those liars who sold their pill for a lot of the problems. I have chronic pain and I can’t get them right now due to this shortage and it being a holiday. My Drs office was closed Friday so I could Ed get my meds to another pharmacy. I still have medication I’ve saved for this exact thing. Chronic pain really is a nightmare.
I’m worried but know i won’t die if I can’t get them for a while. I’ll be stuck in bed like before I got help. I won’t die. I’ll be a burden to my family.,” the medication really improves my quality of life. So I won’t die but I’ll not be able to clean my house. Drive. Nobody wants me on the road feeling in chronic pain. Or at least I hope won’t die. Edit- Some people who run out may have a heart attack. This who need stronger drugs and have cancer. It absolutely can cause a heart attack. That means someone is making this happen and knows it is killing people.
I know the feeling about being judged. I try to image be these people in pain later on in life. They should be careful who they judge. KARMA is real.
Walgreed$ threw me under the bus and refused a non controlled med that I've been on for many years. Only they carried it. I'm now incapacitated and lost my income. They were sued so that gave them a right to throw people under the bus. My life is over and I'm dying.
@@michele5695 How are you doing now?
Well count me in u know pain is causing ur diabetes right the body sends out cortisol and then the body dumps glucose to combat it so pain causes high blood sugar and pressure which causes heart attacks all kinds of problems all come down to untreated pain 😢 it's a mess I was sent into a coma from pain my blood sugar went up to 675 because my pharmacy ran out of my meds and didn't have them in time cost me $139,000 at the hospital they held me for a extra week after I woke up their insulin didn't make my sugar go down only oxycodone worked to Lower my blood pressure and sugar it's a life saving drug needed to help us it's why it exists on this planet and been made aware for thousands of years
If ANY of the experts or people that say opioids are BAD suffered from chronic pain this would not be any issue. Chronic pain suffers are dependent on pain meds to have any semblance of a life, they are not addicted to them.
I hope these people that came up with these policies end up with chronic pain themselves... and they finally see what they've done and the lives they've ruined....
No they really like playing god with people's lives. It's sickening
This, of course, depends upon the individual's proclivity to addiction. To be blunt, I was addicted to H and alcohol for many years.I was a stubborn addict. It took three years in and out of psyche wards and a rehab for the message to get through to me what I needed to do to stay sober; that day is January 11th, 2006. A lot of fine people helped me. I did not do this alone at all, and I thank all of them each time I qualify on whatever live or cyber-platform I'm on. The degree to which I truly understood what true recovery means allowed me to use powerful opioids twice in two years safely and without any relapse whatsoever. I recently had a right knee replacement operation in NYC, Jan 9th 2024. It went well, and in the post-op kit I was given a 30 tab bottle of Oxycontin (5mg) and a 30 tab bottle of Tramadol (10mg), which I used as prescribed for the pain, and they worked very well. This marked a massive change from the post-op kit I was given in 2014 for my left knee replacement, which was a 200 tab bottle of Vicodin (I'm not joking). I never came close to using all those tabs. I thought it was really weird to be given so many tabs. Ended up flushing the excess down the toilet, and that was perfectly fine. I had to chuckle because there would have been a time several decades ago when I would've done anything to continue the prescriptions. I feel immensely grateful every day all day.
It only got worse. The stigma associated with opioids is killing pain patients and the DEA knows this. They have cut production of opioids every year and now thousands of people are forced to go through horrific pain and even death because there simply isn't enough meds to go around. This includes end stage cancer patients. Hospitals are refusing opioids to patients after surgery and offering ridiculous drugs that have no pain killing qualities including benedryl. The people are being forced onto the streets to look for relief. They end up with phentanyl and die. The od's are a direct result of the government thinking they are doctors and cutting patients off.
I agree. I thought this would settle down by now but after the last couple years it's gotten worse.
I am a product of stupid government interfering with my medical care so I was in a horrible accident now half my body is titanium I had to learn to walk again I am in irretractable pain everyday my dr cut my drugs in half based on a letter from the dea saying to cut off patients while I was at my drs office a cancer patient shot himself in the head while we were there in front the dr because she cut everyone's meds in half it made it so I couldn't do physical therapy anymore I'm bedbound these days of horribeus pain and this pain has caused me heart attacks and now they labeled me with diabetes but it's not treatable with insulin because they high sugar that put me in a coma is from pain so the body in pain causes cortisol to pump and the body reaction is to pump Glucose my endo dr that I now have costing me a extra 800 a month has said I need my pain meds back to what they were but the pain dr I have said he can't even though I am suppsoed to be protected I have a rare gentic disorder I didn't know I had until the accident an it effects my body to feel more pain then most I don't have the sodium channels to help stop the pain with the drugs and the only drugs that seem to work is oxycodone my pharmacist says he can't even give me back the level I was on when he was unable to fill my script last month on time we called over 45 pharmacy and they all said they can't take new patients for filling opipids my mom who recently got cancer from her gentic disorder wasn't able to fill her script she was sent to hospital but they will only fill while in the hospital which I was put in a coma from lack of pain relief in September they won't fill a bottle to take home they can only give u ur script while in hospital so when the pills were unable to be gotten I went into a coma my body shut down the pain is so bad I have had 3 major heart attacks this is crazy my dr doesn't under stand it my pharmacist says how sorry he is he was forced by dea to send in my medical files which I feel is a breech of hipa they arnt drs why do they have a right to my medical files in order to clear a redflag to begin with that they instituted its not even a high amount I'm less then half then I was on for 5 yrs they cut out of blue making me sicker I have a endo dr who has said I need more pain meds to survive but she can't do anything but send letters to my pain dr my pain dr said he would like to raise it back to what it was but he has a office full of cancer patients and end of life patients that if he can't practice they have no where to go he can't risk for me or another patient it's crazy it's like the government wants us to break the law because there is only so much more I can take before I have no other option my life has ended because of this I can't leave my house I am in so much pain the problems of addicts become my issues now I think about what I'm going to do specifically when my pharmacist can't fill my script and I slip into a coma I'm terrified of it happening again I can't see family and friends I can't leave my home I can't get out of bed from the accident I have had help getting dressed eating everything it's so bad but I was getting better and now since a year ago I have gone so down hill I'm missing chunks of my body due to muscle detoration how is this stopping anything ever no junkie is being saved by killing me I have 3 boys who feel I have abandoned them because I'm stuck in bed they don't understand mom can't walk even after relearning to walk again why I can't get out of bed or be apart of their life I've been fighting to survive but the pain is winning I'm what's left of the pain group I joined when it started everyone else is dead 6 from suicide due to being cut off so severely if I had a whole brain I would make my own meds to give the people who were in my group my middle son changed his entire schooling because he wants to make pharmaceuticals to save me that shouldn't be his care but they all have my gentic disorder so when they get hurt they will go through nerve deteration like me and my mom I feel the government is trying to kill me I did nothing wrong and I have been through hell had to sell my house to survive can't work I don't know what I will do soon I wish I could get ahold a drug maker who would fill my script direct I would pay them whatever they want just to be able to try to walk again I didn't ask for the 85 yr old who stole his son in law car and hit me head on that left me fighting for my life for over 7 yrs now I thought I got through the hard part then 2 yrs ago they for no reason just cut my meds in half the girl dr I used to see quite after the guy shot himself leaving only the male dr at my pain specialist place he is old if something happens to him I don't know what I would do if something happened to my pharmacist I don't know what I would do because I have called and no one will fill a script for pain meds in Florida how is this safe or fair for anyone I'm lucky I'm not as bad as others but I can't get anymore of the many surgeyrs I need because they can't raise my pain meds back up and my body has died on the operation table from pain I dont know what to do at this point I have no idea how others survive I won't get better I have a rare nerve disorder soon I will be in so much pain my body will just stop it seems so crazy this can happen to me when I started being labeled for diabetes when the meds don't work the only time my sugar went down was when thye gave me more pain meds then sent me home knowing it would just go back up because I don't get enough pain meds. I'm supposed to be protected but apparently that's all a lie to appease the public I don't understand we can grow poppy here in America and build a job force let alone making and distributing yet we don't and we allow the cartel to kill people it hasn't stopped drug addicts from getting their drugs just pain patients from getting help something has to be done how many people who shouldn't suffer get help
Well stated. Pain patients usually do not overdose if they are stable. When they become destabilized due to diminishing dosages, they are suffering. If they try to relieve that with street drugs when their tolerance is down, they could overdose.
@@tomdecuca3627are they still prescribing OxyContin?
That's what they want! Depopulation agenda
That lady needs to differentiate between acute pain, wisdom teeth removal and chronic pain.
acute, tooth pain is TEMP. !
Pain is pain.
They no longer want to prescribe for acute pain..3 to 5 days...chronic pain past 3.to 3 months is now referred to as pain management before surgery with no narcitics...insanity
@@VanderpumpRHOB Negative ghost rider! 😅 If that where the case child birth could be treated like a headache. Ya know "ITS ALL IN YER HEAD" lol dang, what a preposterous, naive thought process it takes to speak such gibberish.
That’s not the point. Back in the early 00s people would get 60 or more pills sometimes with refills after a procedure.
I think reducing the amount to a week is a good thing. Not prescribing them post op is bad.
Getting patients down in their dose is also good. There are other therapeutic options to assist in this.
I don’t agree people need to be forced to come off.
F--- the C D C ! when my PC Dr. can prescrib what HE desides , quit telling them what to do , c d c isn`t qualified to apply a band-aid !
@EDD519 PREACH!! The CDC themselves readily admitted that these where just Reference materials and NOTHING close to anything enforceable, CERTAINLY NOT to be like law as it actually was utilized as!
I am being forced into assisted dying because my doctor is retiring and no doctors taking patients. ERs and walk ins don’t prescribe. I am a cancer patient had 5 surgeries even brain surgery !! all options exhausted only narcotics now will allow me to live. Have letters to that effect 30 MG daily and and for years I have stable and enduring. It’s the lowest effective dose. I don’t drink, don’t smoke just need the nerve damage in my brain caused by a friggin oncologist who told “radiation is perfectly safe”. We it’s not! Lost all my teeth, am legally blind and trigeminal ganglion in my brain melted and fused!! This is patient abandonment. This is murder. All I need is one appointment per month 10 minutes and my 30 mg and I am fine. Now what go seek drugs on the street or go to assisted dying!! God is watching! Praying the Kingdom comes like we are told to by Jesus himself.
I also have a reduced quality of life due to have less opioids prescribed. Starting in the 1990's they helped me reclaim my life. Opioids worked wonderfully for me, for many years, but now my dosage is greatly reduced and I have to tolerate pain. I could be working an earning a living if I had more opioids prescribed. I believe the opioids sold on the street are too risky. They too often may contain other drugs such as cocaine, and methamphetamine, mixed with heroin and fentanyl. Certainly much more risky than legally prescribed drugs. I am trying to read the new CDC guidelines published in 2022 Nov. 995 pages. I've read only about 10 pages so far. Will this really help? It is a bot hard for me to read because I have face and eye pain in addition to toher pain. I think pain patients need to get better organized and work for change. Even if we do not succeed, we need to try, if only for the next generations of people. Ask yourself who benefits is opioids are restricted. Physicians who sell other methods or relieving pain, whether they are effective methods or not, benefit if people can't get opioids for their pain. For example physicians doing destructive surgery such as nerve ablations, spinal fusions, can get more patients and earn more money, if patients can't get opioids for their pain. It is in their interest to limit opioid prescribing. Are they behind the 2016 CDC guidelines? Ask: who benefits.
God may be watching but I tend to think the only way that God implements change, is by working *through people.* We need to take action. If there are actions to take, we must do them, and we must not rely on prayer. We must be God's workers, implementing his plan for betterment. We must _not_ wait for death and "heaven" to have relief. I think we owe it to the next generation of people to improve things on earth, now.
This is a terrible time for the terminally ill & chronic pain patients!! Now we have drug shortages. So even if you’re fortunate enough to find a doctor and a pharmacy…. they may not be able to get the medication from the manufacturer & distributor. The American healthcare system has seen better days. Pray for answers. Keep the faith as hard as that may be🙏🏽
God bless you Rose. Many prayers for you. ❤
Dr's no longer fight for the patient and learn more than what us taught...treat patients like insects..pushed vaccines that were experimental ..no longer have metacognition
I’m so sorry that you’re going through this! I have been forcibly tapered twice, went into hypertensive crisis, but finally found a doc, now pharmacy shortages and insurance randomly chosen limits are a hurdle every month. Please keep trying to find a doctor. Please reach out to National Pain Council and see if they can help. Sending you positivity!❤️🩹
I had vicodin when my wisdom teeth were taken out and it was still pretty painful even with it. I cant imagine going through that with only Tylenol or ibuprofen
yeah and imagine getting all 4 out at once and only being given 800mg ibuprofen SMFH
Oh god forbit you prescribe pain medication to someone who just had teeth ripped out of their mouth...
I got my wisdom teeth removed a few years ago. The doctor told me to take aspirin twice a day for 3 days, which was more then sufficient. Are American wisdom teeth larger than their European counterparts or are all of you just addicted to opiods?
@@maarten1115 That's fantastic. I've been injured more times than I can count and sometimes OTC meds were all that I needed if any. Others, I couldn't function without something stronger such as opioids. Not only that, not everyone has the same pain tolerance.
Btw I've been prescribed opioids AND other addictive drugs many many times throughout my life. Guess what... never became addicted to any of them. Pills do not take themselves, people do. This is a people problem, not a drug problem.
And btw just in case you were wondering. Yes, people can and do abuse ibuprofen, tylenol and aspirin on a daily basis. Once again, people problem.
@@maarten1115 in Europe you are able to in many countries like England for example go to the pharmacy without a prescription and buy some codiene pills. Americans aren't allowed that freedom by our government. So already our prescription numbers are going to be higher as a result of that. Also countries in Europe like Ukraine have legal poppy straw for tea that isn't tracked like meds are in usa. So apples to oranges. And also just because you can make it through a surgery without pain doesn't mean everyone can. You probably didn't have an infection amplifying the pain like I did.
@@maarten1115 Everyone has a different pain tolerance. Ever think of that? Or are you just going off of YOUR pain level and expecting everyone elses to be the same... As for your claim about being addicted to opioids lol. Keep reading that propaganda sheep.
But but but, opioids are bad, “As alleged in the complaints, Bayer - one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world - engaged in a series of unlawful acts, including paying kickbacks to doctors and hospitals, marketing them off-label, and downplaying their safety risks,”
Keep taking that aspirin and thinking you are safe lol. Like I said... you're being played and don't even know it.
Try having all four removed and an abscess drained from an infection. Few months later another abscess had to get surgically removed from one of my front teeth. Cut it out then sowed it back up. I had 27 root canals including retreatments. 3 implants. One failed had to have redone. Bone grafts. A lot of infection. Nerve damage because of it. Only one endodontist had enough compassion to give me five mg hydrocodone. Which I needed. I got nothing for the wisdom tooth removal. Some are more impacted than others and are more painful. Just cause you didn’t need them doesn’t mean some have it worse. You’d have no idea what to do if you had gone through what I did. I had to have seriously major sinus surgery because of all the infection in my teeth that moved up to my sinuses. I had bones removed near my temples. Lots of dead and infected tissue removed. Bones also sawed down to help me breathe. I needed the pain meds for that. Trust me it’s torture with pain meds. Without it is barbaric. And you’re telling people it’s bad to want pain relief? These meds are used for a reason and opium has been used for thousands of years for pain. Doctors giving patients Vicodins for pain isn’t why there’s a fentanyl epidemic now. Even back in the day where OxyContin came out. You couldn’t go to any doctor and have him give you 200 pills for a cut on your knee. There were some pill mills but It wasn’t like the news and tv shows portray it. It’s disgusting your attitude towards suffering people.
I'm 69 years old and recently underwent brain surgery. I spent three days in ICU being treated with morphine for intense pain. Upon release I was prescribed 28 Vicodin for the next week which barely took the edge off the pain. Then they gave me Tylenol which didn't work at all and I was bed ridden in agony until I finally acquired adequate pain medication through the under market. Problem solved. When the pain finally subsided, I stopped the meds and am certainly not addicted to anything.
@@collinsonfitness6505 Lol nice try glowie
I also have fibro ,degen disc disease and others and I am in Calif. my dr won’t prescribe any pain med, not even Tylenol 3 . I’m 78 and fibro is getting worse.
I`m praying for you , please try KRATOM , it works for me !
I am in the same boat. 59 and my life is over because Dr's fear prescribing my meds
Try medical marajuana
Have tried getting a prescription for Duloxetine (Cymbalta)?
Try going to a pain management doctor sometimes they can be more laxed on prescribing you pain medication than your family physician, i feel for you hopefully you can find relief🤞
I have chronic pain for back surgery. I’ve been taking them for thirty years, and now can’t get them. Pharmacies can’t get it. Opioids are heroin addicts too. They don’t split the data on who is abusing what. We are all classified the same. This is insane what is happening
Same here I had back surgery and prescribed opiod but I take as needed
Democrats again trying to rip our country apart
I have resigned myself to the fact that if anything happens to my Dr I will be on the street looking to buy something to relieve my pain and hoping to not get busted by the cops.
@@stevenwagner9912 They aren’t leaving us with much choice. Was just told yesterday I have to start coming to see my pain management Dr every month. First it was three months then two months now every month. It’s always something. I’m very afraid for all of us.
@@stevenwagner9912 you get prescribed them
44 years without a drink, I’m starting again because of pain !
And that’s why you have a massive fentanyl problem now
Hopefully who ever made the new Opioid guideline they get into an accident or injured where they need to use Opioids and the doctor denied them.

where can i get M30 or oxy
Yes, it's very bad.
Wouldn't surprise me if our own CIA is selling fentanol so that can fund there black ops programs around the world like places in Ukraine and the Middle east.
It's practically impossible to overdose on hydrocodone.
Unfortunately there’s a disconnect between the guidelines, doctors, and pharmacies. The DEA cuts on production of controlled substances (75% lower than in 2022. Chronic pain patients are SUFFERING to access their lifesaving medications. Please cover this!
Hopefully who ever made the new Opioid guideline they get into an accident or injured where they need to use Opioids and the doctor denied them.

Yes Emily! You are so right. PROP , the DEA and CDC are to blame for starting this instead of going after the real drug dealers. Chose the doctors, low hanging fruit and lawsuits, all very profitable at our expense.
I love how the perscibing rate is at a all time low and the od and suicide rate are at a all time high. The government is the problem.
But the cartels can pay huge bribes. Plus Drs and CPP don't shoot back.
Yes I'm one of these people

Not once did they discuss the changes in the guidelines. What were the changes?
I had a daughter in law that was told we don’t give pain meds after a C-section. I’ve had 3 and there’s no way I would have left the hospital without them. I never even wanted more after that first week. So how about some common sense
Pain patients are dying & it's NOT from prescription meds!!
I wish the pro-choice movement would expand its boundaries to include pro-choice in regards to the body in all areas.
I don't want to start a debate or anger anyone, but I think any of us in the pain med world have seen countless comments and anecdotal evidence from people who really, truly need opiates to live a semi-decent life. I wish for a week that those in chronic, horrendous pain could transfer their suffering to those that make decisions about these things, those so far removed or who have the ability to pay for a doc that will give them whatever they want, in hopes that the suffering would reverse their idiotic decision that has made access to these medicines so difficult.
100% it seems the people who want to decide what other people “should or should not” do with their bodies are ALWAYS the ones who WILL NOT EVER have to suffer the consequences of the decisions they feel entitled to make about other people’s healthcare!
These people don't know what it is to be in pain or stuck in bed and can't play with your children. Or to have your legs go out and you hit the floor because the pain is unbearable. Not only do we suffer, but our family suffers as well. We need these medications to be able to have some semblance of a normal life. I bet if they need them they'll have access to them but we'll never know. Dea and cdc go suck it until you can tell me how it feels to not make it to the bathroom on time because you can't walk fast enough due to the pain.
BRING THEM BACK! PEOPLE HAVE LEGITIMATE PAIN! YOU ALL ARE CRUEL!
Coldly Cruel.
So I'm on hydrocodone but there is a major shortage in California and you can't get it!! I live with spinal stinosis and fibromyalgia. This works for me but no one has it!!! Sad an scary.
My heart goes out to you all. That's cold, and unfair! Nobody deserves to live, no exist in pain! I'm in California also, I'm 36, and I have sle lupus, fibromyalgia, pure o ocd, uterine fibroids, and ptsd. I've had lupus, fibroids, and fibromyalgia since I was 19, mental illness since childhood. I live in pain too, every day, throughout. My lupus alone causes so much bone, and muscle pain, cramping, and stiffness. It affects me from hair, to toes, inside out, and leaves me exhausted! I wear tens units, and have custom massage deep tissue machines, but some days I'm too sore, and in pain, and stiff, that I can't be touched on many areas.I've been on hydrocodone for 4 years now. In January, my doctor took me up to 4 7.5mg tablets a day. Next it'll be 10mg 3xs a day, then 10mg 4xs a day. I haven't heard of any shortages where I live, or the medical group I use. I pray not! I pray you all will get the medicine you need and deserve. So sorry. ❤ and ☮
@megd.2011 I`m in Tx. and have 2 plates & 24 screws in my left pelvis, they cut off my meds 5 years ago, but now I use KRATOM , try it !
@@EDD519How did you transition from prescription pain meds to kratom? I would like to do that but I am afraid of withdrawals.
Thanks for your help.

@@AngelinaX23stop taking the pills and use a kratom extract while in withdrawal. It helps immensely. Then stay on a maintenance dose of kratom until you no longer need it. Takes about 6 months. Best decision you’ll ever make. Good luck.
The reporter needs to do research....Hydrocodone was available LONG BEFORE THE 90'S!
The major disconnect in both opinion and practice of prescribing opioids for pain relief is for those who have never suffered long term chronic pain. They cannot fully understand or appreciate just how debilitating - both physically and mentally - chronic pain really is. When a person has medical records documenting the need, there should be very little standing in the way of getting relief. They say they are trying to reduce deaths due to overdose, however, prescription overdose by long term chronic pain patients is extremely rare. The greater problem is where people obtain prescriptions for profit - (the CDC does not differentiate legitimate prescription usage overdoses and illegally sold/used prescription purchases ending in overdose. We can ignore their numbers all together - the CDC is vastly a propaganda machine pushing the current narrative.) There are, by far, more deaths of legitimate pain patients who are unable to obtain needed medication and turn to street obtained fake pills, than there are legitimate patients using pharmacy supplied long term prescription opioids. Stop Punishing Pain Patients and Stop Punishing Doctors for taking care of their patients.
Absolutely. To be blunt, I was addicted to H and alcohol for many years.I was a stubborn addict. It took three years in and out of psyche wards and a rehab for the message to get through to me what I needed to do to stay sober; that day is January 11th, 2006. A lot of fine people helped me. I did not do this alone at all, and I thank all of them each time I qualify on whatever live or cyber-platform I'm on. The degree to which I truly understood what true recovery means allowed me to use powerful opioids twice in two years safely and without any relapse whatsoever. I recently had a right knee replacement operation in NYC, Jan 9th 2024. It went well, and in the post-op kit I was given a 30 tab bottle of Oxycontin (5mg) and a 30 tab bottle of Tramadol (10mg), which I used as prescribed for the pain, and they worked very well. This marked a massive change from the post-op kit I was given in 2014 for my left knee replacement, which was a 200 tab bottle of Vicodin (I'm not joking). I never came close to using all those tabs. I thought it was really weird to be given so many tabs. Ended up flushing the excess down the toilet, and that was perfectly fine. I had to chuckle because there would have been a time several decades ago when I would've done anything to continue the prescriptions. I feel immensely grateful every day all day.
Opioids are not a good idea 😑 UNTIL YOUR DYING IN PAIN !!! CDC IT WAS OUT OF THEIR SCOPE IN THE 1st Place to put out any guidelines!!!!!
Its more the dea than the cdc. Thats what the drs are afraid of been in chronic pain since 1995. Had 3 spine surgeries and they tell me I need another 3. I have no life without the pain meds and everyone knows if I got the other 3 surgeries, the pain would be worse !
Been on the same amount for 8 yrs and I cant get it increased . And this is America
Even people in hospice who are dying are not only denied opioids they are denied anti anxiety meds too. Sadists
Just had surgery on my shoulder the doctor gave me 10 5mg oxycodone. These don’t even touch the pain I’m in. I will be in the pain for the next 3 months this is terrible.
This is completely cruel and inhumane, People with real Chronic pain should be able to purchase any pains meds that help there pain and or to help them work all day. You can buy Codeine Pills in the UK and australia OTC.? But not in progressive USA?? I was in Car Accident, I have A Back Fracture, and i have yet to be prescribed ANY PAIN MEDICATION and I'm in constant pain.
The 2022 CDC guidelines were just for show. Lip service. Worse
In 2016, the pendulum swing WAY TOO FAR in the other direction!!🤯🤬😡🤬😡🥵🥵
SHAME ON AMERICA PART 2: I have new information that will fill you in about the current shortage of pain killers in pharmacies across the US. Last night, I spoke with the daughter of a friend of mine who is a government investigator. His daughter works for a major pharmaceutical corporation in New Jersey at a drug distribution center. I learned from her why this nightmare will only intensify in 2024 if Congress does not step in and force the US pharmaceutical corporations to operate their businesses responsibly and once again be fully accountable to Americans everywhere.
She told me the distribution center where she works at has always received weekly deliveries of prescription drugs that are produced in foreign nations such as Turkey, the Ukraine, Russia, China, South Korea, India and other third world nations. She said none of the drugs are produced in the US and that has been the case for several decades because the US-based pharmaceutical corporations found it cheaper to acquire drugs from overseas rather than produce them here in the USA.
She told me that when the Russia-Ukraine War began, Putin's bombing campaign destroyed many of Ukraine's drug-producing facilities that routinely sent drugs to the US. The problem there only increased with time as Putin bombed more and more Ukrainian cities and towns where these drugs were made, among other things. That drug market died a quick death.
Last year Turkey was devastated when severe earthquakes destroyed many parts of that country, including drug producing facilities that routinely shipped drugs to drug distribution centers in the US. That drug market virtually dried up overnight.
Now, the US-based pharmaceutical corporations depended more on China, South Korea, India and a few other nations for shipments of drugs to the US. But as the Russian-Ukrainian War continued, Biden sent more and more aid to Ukraine, including military equipment that allowed the Ukrainians to defeat the Russians in many battles so far. Putin then stopped all drug shipments from Russia to the US, killing that drug market immediately.
Still, the US-based pharmaceutical corporations refused to even consider producing drugs in the USA again so Americans would not have to rely on foreign nations for their prescription drug needs. The demand for drugs grew ever higher as the supply for these drugs diminished greatly within a year, a year and a half. And it continues to this day.
China, annoyed by Biden's interference with the Ukraine situation and his reluctance to stop the Israelis from bombing Gaza, has only intensified and the Chinese have decided to slow the shipments of drugs from China to the US to a trickle, if even that, thus causing this current crisis with the shortage of drugs to Americans, especially critical drugs for severe pain relief such as the opioid class of drugs.
My friend's daughter has a boyfriend who is a stockbroker and in this conversation I had with them last night, he provided me with additional information that you should be aware of. He told me that as the supply line of drugs to the US-based drug distribution centers withered away month after month, the US pharmaceutical corporations began to panic because they were greatly concerned the value of their stocks would decline on Wall Street if all this information became public knowledge.
He said he spoke to several key figures in the US pharmaceutical industry who privately advised him that they were trying to curtail a run on the drug market, especially where opioids were concerned.
These pharmaceutical representatives told him that the big US pharmaceutical corporations worried that American consumers would find ways to stock up on opioids, even having their friends and relatives obtain prescriptions from doctors for opioids if they would agree to do so, just to have extra supplies of the drugs because US pharmacies like CVS began to run short on these drugs and began a secretive process whereby they no longer filled the entire prescriptions written by doctors, but only for a certain amount of pills any time a customer attempted to have their prescriptions filled at their local pharmacies.
If they had, for instance, a prescription for 120 Vicodin pills, CVS would only give them 80 pills and simply tell them they were short on the drug and advise them to return two weeks later to see if the remainder of the prescription could be filled, provided new deliveries of the drugs were received by CVS. The druggists were advised by CVS executive offices in New Hampshire not to tell their customers the true scope of the problem regarding the shortage and why it was occurring because they wanted to keep the public in the dark about this.
In the meantime, in Washington DC, little has been done by elected officials about this ongoing crisis. Across the USA, patients who need to have surgeries, have been forced to delay getting the surgeries because they have run out of pain killers and they fear they will not be able to cope with the pain they will have post surgery since the recuperative periods are indeed painful, especially for spinal surgeries and surgeries for cancer, tumors, clots and a wide host of other kinds of surgeries commonly done on a daily basis.
All the hospitals are on short supplies for drugs because of this crisis. Patients who are scheduled for surgery are given prescriptions for pain killers by their doctors and usually have them filled before the surgeries so they have the drugs on hand as soon as they return home. But now, what with the drug shortage, countless patients have been forced to delay getting the operations they need and American politicians have been mute about this.
The stockbroker told me that virtually all pharmaceutical corporations in the US and elsewhere have seats on the stock market, meaning the public can buy and sell their stocks, according to the varying degrees of success or failure these drug corporations have. And right now, they are failing miserably and their stock worth is going ever downward. What the drug corporations are trying to avoid is a major collapse of the worth of their stocks completely.
They fear their stocks will plunge in a spiral like a house of cards if this drug shortage continues. Thus, they are not volunteering any information to the public or news media and it would take an act of Congress to subpoena those who own the US pharmaceutical corporations to testify before Congress on Capital Hill about the reasons why this shortage is happening and what the drug corporations intend to do about it, if anything.
The stockbroker told me he spoke to many high-level Wall St. analysts about this fiasco and they told him many US politicians own stock in the US-based pharmaceutical corporations. They play the stock market like anyone else and try to buy the stocks when their prices are low and sell them when they are high. This severe drug shortage might be causing those who own such stocks to hold onto them and wait until their value rises again on the stock market before selling them off.
The major drug corporations fear that a major sell off of their stocks on the stock market now would severely damaged them financially for the foreseeable future. Is this why Congress has yet to hold hearings on this crisis? No one is answering this question, not from Capital Hill and not from the US pharmaceutical corporations.
No one is being accountable as to why prescription drugs, especially painkillers, high blood pressure and cholesterol meds and a wide variety of other critical drugs, are not being produced right here in the USA when they can be. Americans are being held hostage, he told me.
He also said that where pain killers are concerned, the average patient who has chronic pain from injuries that have caused them to suffer permanent disabilities and ongoing levels of pain, are over the age of 50. Most of them are senior citizens on Medicare or Medicaid.
This means the federal government is helping them with their prescription drug costs and this may be another reason Washington is stalling on this issue and thus, delaying any hearings on the crisis. In the meantime, people are suffering more and more and becoming all the more dysfunctional, not being able to do the things they need to do because if you haven't got the proper medication for pain relief and nothing else will do but opioids, your condition becomes all the more debilitating.
Many pain sufferers are becoming bedridden without their medications. I learned a lot of information in one night from two sources, people who are in the drug industry and a Wall St. insider who was able to give me his perspective
Great report on our corrupt system. We rely too much on foreign countries.
As long as pain is regulated by medicines for those with diagnosed cases of intolerable incurable pain. Most prescriptions used by pain patients are not abused nor do they od. Also, if someone does overdose it's usually with non prescribed illegal meds. Some opiates only work for some people. Different body chemistry, different med absorption etc.. Also if person ods then they had a drug addiction and/or interaction which is person's doing, not fault of opiates in general. Stop suing drug companies for pain med ods esp when not prescribed illicit meds . ❤
What are the inprovements
The Gubberment is 24 trillion in debt.
They couldn't manage a donut shop much less a pain management system.
YES, one does need hydrocodone after a wisdom tooth extraction!!! Man, that was sooo painful! I do hope that every judgmental doctor, healthcare provider & person out there who allows their patients to suffer will get pain-payback in their lifetimes so they can know exactly what it's like to be left on your own in unbearable pain with no hope, help, or recourse in sight.
it not any easier. Been in med management for 15 years for my back and legs. Just dropped out and told them all to go to hell. Life is miserable now but at least i no longer have to deal with the nonstop rules. They are more focused on driving you into disability with all the rules than helping you thru life.
Opiates should be allowed when no other option Works!
Chronic Pain Patients have been vilified and called addicts since 2016. After being dropped by my doctors, lied to and ignored by doctors I have stopped all care for my chronic condition.
Go back to doctors? That would require *trust.*
*Don't use big words you and doctors obviously don't understand!!*
@Threefiddy No thanks, I do not purchase trash from a-- 🕳s.
Self medication with fentanyl is the way people deal with pain.
Thanks CDC
When I got my wisdom teeth out, I cried myself to sleep. They gave me Tylenol three or codeine. It didn’t do anything. I might as well drink the whole bottle.
I see this came out a year ago however it is still very difficult for me to get hydros. I am in chronic pain each and every day. In Southern California this has not helped!
Lets worry about opioids but alcohol and cigarette addiction is fine? Where is the logic here?
I have suffered from serious pain for years many surgeries and it's ridiculous that we can't get help! They cut off the people who really need them! ABOUT TIME, SOME PEOPLE ACTUALLY ARE VERY SICK AND NEED HELP NOT THE JUNKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you realize drug addiction is a health issue just like yours? No one wants that life
Remember when they wrote these guidelines advising people to just learn to accept and cope with pain? Yeah, didn't work out. Wonder why.
Omg I would have died if I didn’t get Percocet when I got my wisdom teeth out. Do they really not give pain meds for that now. Yikes that was so painful.
The CDC. A bastion of transparency and honesty. A beacon of truth. Right........
Wish folks could transfer their pain to one another if only for 5 minutes in order to allow them to feel what they do. I have a feeling some would passout within 10-15 seconds from the pain & shock. It's sad that folks are in pain & we humans have the abilities to gather & give medicine but aren't allowed so peeps needlessly suffer. Evil
Stop pain meds and illegal drugs use will go up,people with search other alternatives.
My doc wouldn’t prescribe me opiods,was lucky to cross paths with a reputable source who delivers oxys, xans and other psychs safely 2 my addrez without hassle

What about inoperable chronic pain?
so many more meds for pain....why do they act like its the only choice. they know what their doin
To be fair, if your insurance won’t pay for it (and they have doctors to argue against treatment just to save money) you aren’t getting any help. At least not without footing the bill yourself. And if you’re really needing that much pain medication you probably can’t work so catch 22. I should know. 😑
Like. Me. Because I asked for help from a doctor, I am now an addict on my medical records. Avoided it for 30 years. I made a big mistake. CRPS. Forever.
And what happened to the Sackler family who basically caused all this? They're billionaires!
Can't get my mediciation for my Dad due to the D.E.A. any suggestions?
had gout for many years and severe car accident thank goodness for them
So sad -- the CDC and the DEA have been at the root of this problem from the beginning especially the DEA. Their "cracking down on providers" is the main reason there is a huge problem with people suffering in the country and not getting the pain control they needed all along. Providers are scared to death to prescribe anything anymore for real pain issues because of the over reach by these government agencies who instead of focusing on the real issues with controlled substances -- choose to focus on providers and micromanaging them and thier practices. What a collosal waste of our tax money they are.
George Knapp did the BEST and earliest reporting on this issue. While other "journalists" have simply become mouthpieces for the government, KLAS and George Knapp, with Dr Dan Laird have exposed what's really going on.
So, how do you get the doctors to stop fearing what the government will do to them if they exceed 90 mme (morphine equivalents)/day.
Pharmacists get into the act, so even if your doctor is willing to do what is necessary to treat, the pharmacists may block the prescription or insist that a plan to wean the patient from pain meds be filed.
Some rare conditions, like RSD/CRPS are long time chronic conditions, spreading, progressing and becoming permanent pain diseases in some instances. There are over 7,000 rare diseases affecting 2+M people in the US where the mechanism for pain is poorly understood and can be extremely debilitating due to pain. It may be the patient is forced to live a life of constant and severely debilitating levels of pain -- some committing suicide when it is no longer tolerable.
The overreach of government is not grounded in research -- the limits set by CDC in 2016 were arbitrary (a doctor just picked the number 90 😊 when asked for a max. safe dosage amount 220 mme/day = the CDC 2022 revisions allowing greater latitude in prescribing. The establishment of medical rules should be arrived at by medical experts NOT legislators who may be swayed by special interest groups!
If Drs would just do bottle recalls and drug tests for the pts who get narcotics it would knock out 90% of the patients who are misusing and selling them and allow the patients who truly need them to live a productive life. But most Drs just write them and don’t do anything to MANAGE the meds.
Too little. Too late. It will take many years before the doctors overcome their profound fear of prescribing, even for seriously ill bedridden patients on palliative care who now how to try to get to states who allow euthanasia.
I got introduced to opiets by my dentist.
Chronic pain patients are screwed
I suffer from chronic pain. I'm getting tired of fighting for opiod relief tired being here .
In 2022 alone almost 110,000 US citizens died as a result of overdoes in the drug war on the US. An inconvienient truth which is being marginalized or ignored by many. In large part because they have no solutions to this crisis. . This death toll is almost the same, for US citizens, as all the wars we’ve been in since WW2. Very sad. So much crisis and tradgedy. The western health care systems blow like leaves in the wind. For chronic pain and to stay off strong deadly illicit narcotics, I implement the "harm reduction model" of recovery by using Kratom for pain for almost 8 yrs now. About 5 years ago my doctor told me to stay on kratom which I fully intented to do. I only wish kratom was as pure and reliable as phamaceuticals are. Maybe some day soon it’ll be prescribed by doctors.
Chronic Pain patients are still suffering,... they are taken off of completely or have had their dose greatly reduced. Many have had to stop working and are now disability..... Yes, overdoses continue to skyrocket each year, but a huge majority is illicit fent or a mix or drugs and or alcohol it is not due to legitimate patients even those on "high doses'. Prescriptions continue to decrease while overdoses skyrocket.... so this has caused more harm than good for all sides....i pray that pain patients are able to get the medicication and dose that is best for them. Tell me how taking someone off of beneficial medication they have taken for uears is helping?? Then many are told they can either take suboxone or nothing (also choose suboxone and it is assumed u have OUD and most likely will now go in your recpords.... i would rather pain patients know what they are taking instead of going to the "street" for pain relief. I pray the pendulum swings back soon.
Kids were getting them for wisdom teeth limb amputation you know simple things like that 😅 1:55
The cdc dea are completely screwed up people that suffer from chronic pain that will never go away aren't trying to get high and don't abuse their medications this will just force people to the streets

Addiction is all within the person not the drug and that’s just a fact you can argue against it all u want
Thank God I have TN and GN plus psoriatic arthritis it’s been hell with the limitations
I need 120mg one bucal methamphetine morphine
Huh . Grim stats of OD.. grim stats for pain patients and grim stats for anyone getting off good luck . You know this issue would have been solved if the pendulum did not sway so hard . They can't even seem to get methadone open . Suboxone is given out like candy . So I honestly go and get Subutex for pain as I get tired of finding solutions. It's hard to taper off Subutex and it has been 2 years
in tex. none !
I would think a lot of it is from influence of the DEA.
Also, theres a blockbuster developement i see in the near future surrounding opioid addiction and treatment, it will surely cause a disruption. Certain pain medications causing even more pain problems, especially men with chronic conditions.
Could be better managed with quarterly or yearly hair tests, or careful titration to effective dose and then obtaining urine drug analysis with quantification of opiate drug and metabolites if any. There are many who take advantage of pain medication and add to the diversion, those people ruin it for others. There are also people who truly need medication as well.
Not in VA hospital ask fer help with pain get no answer
0:53 that women is completely wrong Karennnnn
BS
What about all the chronic pain patients that have already killed themselves over the 90 Milligram Morphine Equivalent crap that caused their meds to be cut by like 70%..I was never affected as bad because at the time i was only taking 120mmc but for people taking 300-350mmc it must have been a total nightmare.Once buprenorphine(subutex)tablets were starting to be implemented for pain i just started taking that because the morphine milligram equivalent dosent apply to buprenorhine(Subutex/Suboxone)and taken with Klonopin has a higher analgesic factor also according to 3 different specialists is totally safe since buprenorphine is not a respiratory depressant.Since i stopped taking schedule 2 medicines like Oxycodone, hydrocodone,and Morphine doctors and nurses look at me totally different,im always treated nicely and never judged.
That's so weird because that drug is marketed as drug rehab for junkies to get off heroine so intresting u can change a name and ur treated nicely since it's still a opioid just a Un tested one only been around for 10 years with a few things not so known I hope u do well on it but the crazy thing is a name it's much higher in opioids for it so weird they give it out like it's nothing same with methadone in Florida it's free to anyone made for junkies wanting to get clean if u have certain genetic disorder like me my cousin was in a motorcycle accident they didn't have insurance so they went to get methadone the dr said same opioids be cheaper he died his first dose so sad his new born baby in his arms he laid down on his couch after getting at dr office they don't let u go home with it here these junkies have like a full time Job going everyday to get this drug so unsafe can't let them take home to take and our tax dollars pay for it they get free ride to get them take them to go get and give them a ride to home or work u see them on the side the road passing out they can get as much as they want yet law abiding disabled people can't get simple safe drugs been around since the beginning of time scary the way they use and abuse us we pay taxes for their salary for them to do this to us
Recently had my pancreatitus flare up. It was difficult to get morphine and when i did only 15 ct at a time so i had to contact my pcp to get refill every week til i was ok.

Don't get me wrong I do believe legitimate pain needs to be treated but I would also imagine they'd be alot of people faking claims of pain to get these powerful opioids
