In medicine, the right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing. I had multiple surgeries, & was always told to get off opioids ASAP. I always did (post-surgical pain was bad but opioid side effects were worse). (1/2)

Making opioids available to terminal patients makes sense. Other groups...not nearly as clear. Anything to make a buck in the US. (2/2)

I was prescribed opioids following a fusion and the Dr had me on them for 11 YEARS! I finally had to put myself through treatment a year ago! These drugs destroyed my family. Now at 50 I am starting over. I don't think I am alone. Sadly.

Painkillers,I know,can Ba lifesaver. BUT, let’s just say 4the sake of argument- how fast could we legalize marijuana(0 overdoses)across the board if, say,
