  Did you just forget #PainAwarenessMonth and the ongoing health care crisis for literally millions of Americans in chronic incurable pain who have been abandoned by a fearful medical establishment ? Or was that intentional?

  Can we add #SuicideDue2Pain to that list? Untreated pain following the disastrous 2016 @CDCgov opioid guidelines are forcing people into this position.

  Don’t forget #PainAwarenessMonth! Thank you for saying that the pain community suffers from stigma too! Would love to work with you on ways to reduce the stigma & protect every patient! We all deserve patient-centered care - whatever that means to each individual patient!!pic.twitter.com/hNixXstFFW
