        I looked at the "quiz" Just a bunch of leading questions where the questions lead to these "horrific" answers. Nothing truly educational or informative. These are questions that highlight your message that opioids are bad which is wrong. Legal Rx opioids do a lot of good

        Shasta's quiz: 1. How many chronically ill patients take opioids safely & improves their quality of life? 2. How many CPP's are able to clean their house and shower due to have adequate pain relief? 3. How many CPP's have been able to have hobbies thanks to adequate pain relief?

        More Questions: 1. Why the CDC lie about the number of people who died from LEGAL Rx opioids? 2. Why doesn't the DEA do their job and stop the flow of illicit drugs across our borders? 3. Why has our government decided that they know how to practice medicine better than a MD?

        Because it's easier and safer to lock up Doctors and #cpp rather than go after the #cartels that actually have weapons and kill people! The @DEAHQ needs to justify their jobs, so they prey on the weak and defenseless, while the CARTELS import tons of ILLEGAL opioids. Disgraceful!

        I know, I have an idea for another quiz: 1. How many ppl commit suicide a day due to unrelieved pain thanks to your smear campaign? 2. How many CPP's can keep a job due to pain relief from Rx opioids? 3. How many ppl can care for their families due to pain relief from Rx opioids?

        I took my prescriptions for 12 years before I was abruptly cut off for no other reason than this bullshit hysteria. I never abused, misused or diverted my meds. Less than 2% ever become addicted to an actual doctor's prescription. Now, my life is almost not worth living.

        A heroin or illicit fentanyl overdose. Stop making this a war against pain patients. We are not the cause of this, and cutting us off our meds is not the solution. Prohibition doesn't work, or did you not learn that lesson already?
