I just posted the following note to 15,000 people on Facebook. Feel free to pass this on to blogs where you are active.
I am sometimes asked “how can I help” with efforts to stop the war against chronic pain patients by their own government. One of the ways may be to write the editors of media outlets that are brave enough to publish dissenting voices such as the article in NY Post, “How the Feds Are Fueling America’s Opioid Disaster”. Please share your own experience as a patient briefly (~250 words is ideal), and especially do so if you have experienced difficulty with doctors who now refuse to treat your pain with effective medications, because of fears of DEA malicious prosecution.
Write at letters@nypost.com . Begin with “I read your recent article on “How the Feds Are Fueling America’s Opioid Disaster”. Then add your own story.
Best regards,

Excellent idea! Thanks!
Steve, thatis a great idea. If you have spare time could you list the NY Post type of media. I didn’t know about the NY Post for instance.
