Agreed. Sadly, due to the opioid epidemic people who legitimately suffer with pain issues are being demonized denied treatment and left to suffer. This is unacceptable and must change.
We MUST get to a place where we can truly, as a nation, say that addiction is a chronic disease, that needs to be treated with science, urgency, and compassion. #SGSpotlight #SGPostcard

We know you really, really care about addiction. We
#PainPatients agree. But we’d like a small slice of your concern. Instead, we get stripped of pain meds we’ve been stable on & taken responsibly for years. And to what end?#IllicitFentanyl deaths up 600% &#SuicideDue2Pain!Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Finally! In talking w opiate addicts (my type B) most would be happy to figure out a way to treat their disease w real & COMPASSIONATE medical care. When i presented this idea to one addict he got choked up and couldnt speak. Today I would be arrested by DEA if I treated him

Addiction deserves to be treated w/compassion but it’s not the only condition that needs that. Ppl w/painful disabilities & cancers are being scapegoated, abused & denied treatment . 1 in 10 of all suicides is now related to pain, where is your concern over that epidemic?
