DEA ENFORCEMENT: THE RISE OF AMERICAN FASCISM, PERSECUTION AND CRIMINALIZATION OF YOUR DOCTOR AND MEDICAL HEALTHCARE TREATMENT: HOW DID WE GET HERE!!!
Posted on September 22, 2023 by Norman Clement
Happy to see all the positive work done at this website to get us back on track with proper pain management with any necessary medications. This has been a very dark period in our medical treatments without all possible pain meds on deck for our suffering brothers and sisters . Keep up the fight in providing the best possible pain care outcomes as humanly possible .
Wouldn’t have any quality of life now if not for opioids. I only started taking them in desperation as a young mother being fitted for a wheelchair. They kept me out and allow me to actually be a mom.
Are there other organizations besides Don’t Punish Pain, TheDoctorPatientForum.com that are working on legislation to help people like me? Are they working together? Is ANYONE making headway? Or are we all just complaining to each other…. No one will hear our cries if we don’t make them heard. But the groups that need to be active for change are also those that need the most help & have the least energy & fitness to do it for ourselves. We can’t file this and that complaint when we barely have energy to get dressed.
Those of us that CAN are too afraid of raising ANY kind of red flag, just thankful and quiet and praying not to be noticed so they won’t take away our meds too God Forbid
It’s a sad situation all around
Just ask any advocate in any state that has got some sort of state law passed to – in theory – make opioids more available and some verbiage in the law that protects the prescriber from treating chronic pain pts.. Then ask any attorney, if a state can pass a STATE LAW that will prevent a FEDERAL AGENCY from coming into a particular state to enforce a federal law… Also ask any attorney, when the Feds take anyone to federal court.. what percent will be found guilty – expect the answer to be 90%-95%. That why the three largest wholesaler and 3 large chain pharmacies… when sued by 50 state AG’s & others .. settled – without even going to trial – agreed to collectively paid billions in fines and the wholesalers agreed to sell LESS opioids/controls to all pharmacies and the chain pharmacies also agreed to pay billions in fines and agreed to dispense FEWER opioids/controls.. apparently without real consideration of the pts’ legit medical need. One of the basics of the practice of medicine is starting, changing, and/or stopping a pt’s therapy.

I see you have great (in HIS mind) information about his take on opioids from andrew koodney quoted there. He started this crap and when he started hearing what people really thought about him because of it, then he started hiding in back of prop. (no CAPS shows my disdain and total lack of respect for him.) But when the high dime speaking comes up he still pulls in the big bucks for spewing his crud. I am guessing it was money all along. I had a feeling it was the bucks$$$. Andrew, opioids are not only for end of life. Patients who have dier, dier pain deserve to not have to crawl around the house moaning and crying out in pain. Many people become intolerant of aspirin, aleve, tylanol, and have worse pain because of the kidney and liver damage/ pain as a result. Studies have shown that opioids used for severe pain seldom become addictive. And perchance IF they did, do you advocate complete abstinence for them or treatment for both oud and pain?
