These MDs are using this to post studies showing it’s possible to do opioid free surgeries but aren’t telling the whole story.

These studies will be used in the up-coming CDC acute-care guidelines and are already on the CDC site. Too bad they’re sponsored by a company trying to profit off no-opioid surgery:-/

Ppl are suffering & developing PTSD from surgical/acute pain that’s not treated properly!
