In this election, while white people whined and cried about being robbed, persons of color got down to business and turned out their communities.
Black lives matter a lot to the results, outcome.
#PeacefulProtest
Correction.
Americans of color.
Engaged citizens reclaiming their futures.
Outside the fence erected by the White House to protect @realDonaldTrump from the people, the celebration is in progress

We have a pain crisis rolling out across the nation for gravely injured folks with centralized pain due to multiple chronic conditions. While exempted from CDC Guidelines 2016, and in many cases, state regulations due to palliative care, fear of DEA is getting in the way of Rxng.
We're stranding folks without a life raft and causing unnecessary suffering and increased disability. In the last 24 hrs I have fielded 4 calls regarding patient abandonment and suicide from 3 states.
We need an immediate intervention from #CMS and #CDC.

What fuels public policy? Rhetoric.
It sure as hell isn't data - cause there isn't any.
Why isn't there any data on chronic pain issues? Put simply, we've built NO SYSTEM METRICS to collect this important data or to inform the policy making aspects of this system.

I can think of very few reasons to place chronically ill people into electronic handcuffs because of their diagnosis and care needs. Can you?
