  Great! How about similar support for Mental Health First Aid? Look at Britain, compared to amazing mental health awareness put forth by government, they are LIGHT YEARS ahead of the USA. When will US leaders end stigma? 1 in 4 persons, worldwide, suffers from mental illness.pic.twitter.com/lfLQzSPOKU

  As a chronic pain patient due to incurable autoimmune disease it is troubling that rx opioids for pain have been equated w/illicit drug use. How do we go about changing attitudes such as this? pic.twitter.com/xAgQ3Qsz4C

  More importantly we should educate surgeons to@not prescribe morphine/dilaudid/fentanyl for@muscle cramps while a patient is in house. The tragedy of opioid dependence can be somewhat tracked back to when pain became a 5th vital sign

  Yeah, have your kidney removed and be sent home with zero pain medication. You suffer horribly. Ask me, I can tell you.
