1-Stop the, 'Over prescribing caused the opioid crisis.' narrative. I read article after article where 'liberal prescribing' is ascribed as the cause of the so called #opioidcrisis.
Many articles are written by people in our own community, self proclaimed pain pt ‘advocates’.

2-To this, I’d like to point out that in OC even a judge recently ruled:
"There is simply no evidence to show that the rise in prescriptions was not the result of the medically appropriate provision of pain medications to patients in need,"

We've lost too many in this insane '#opioid' war.
The sick & injured are spending the last years of their lives fighting, suffering, begging MDs & GOV for the medicines they need to mediate their pain.
They say taking our medicines away is to 'save' people.
No one is being saved.

Death due to #Untreatedpain or #Undertreatedpain is death by a thousand cuts.

Hopefully every1 will put personal opinions aside & recognize this attempt by PROP for what it is, designed to give them tool they need to FORCE each off our effective LTOT & onto Suboxone.
If we can’t work 2gether 4 this & support pros willing to fight w/us, our fight is over.

PROP & their cronies have been quietly pushing for a new diagnostic category.
This would mean if your Dr decides to stop or #ForceTaper your meds and you have fear or even more pain then your ONLY suitable treatment option left is Suboxone.
THEN this actual dX stays with you.
