I am someone who suffers from an incurable autoimmune disease that has attacked my nervous system & I require pain management but fear that some day soon I will no longer be able receive my prescribed medication. Please ensure that those of us who do not abuse our meds are safe.
Pain isn’t one-size-fits-all. It's past time that we find responsible, comprehensive solutions for pain management that ensure opioids are marketed, prescribed, and used responsibly, but are still within reach for people dealing with chronic pain.http://nationalpainreport.com/patient-advocate-tells-us-senate-committee-pain-conversation-is-long-overdue-8838737.html …

Do everything you can do NOW to secure future treatment. A confirmed diagnosis will no longer guarantee a patient anything.

My daughter was T-boned by a truck 10 years ago. Her pain meds were cut by 80% & she can no longer work. It is all she can do to get up and brush her teeth. Cutting meds is not the answer.

Pain is watching your civil liberties slip away each day. Chronic pain is watching Congress do nothing about it.

Thank u. Chronic pain sufferers live in fear of, will pain meds be available to them? Travel is a nightmare, can't fill scripts away from home; feel stigmatized, criminalized. We dont deserve to be treated like "criminals"

Thank you. Now work on those in Congress to understand that chronic pain sufferers are treated like criminals for being in pain. Now, even terminal cancer patients are treated like criminals.

That would be nice, but that's not what you're doing. And the ones you're hurting the most are Veterans as we are the most visible, but also suffer the worst pain. Our records are available to the government. And you're listening to Kolodny, a huge liar. I have proof.
