This is what no pain management looks like in the state of Washington
call their bluff with a letter from attorney ?
I am hearing from more and more pain pts whose pain is under managed or not managed at all. Because many large healthcare corporations have adopted a “no opiate pain management policy”
Anything above 135/85 is considered “high” and most healthcare professionals will consider BP above 200/100 being in stroke/heart attack territory.
The hyperlink above is a fairly long post that I created some time ago… that gives some suggestions as to a pt’s option in dealing with such issues.
These large healthcare corporations, hospitals, chain pharmacies, insurance/pbm are behaving much like the criminals that we see in some of our large cities. You know the ones who are going into retail stores and cleaning the shelves off and walk/run out the door without paying… Some district attorneys, in some of these large cities won’t even prosecute a person unless they steal > $950.00… and some of these cities have a “no bail” policy… so the criminals are back out on the street in a matter of hours…
Mostly likely, they go right back to stealing more merchandise from another store … because they know that they will have no consequences to deal with. Apparently these large healthcare corporations are functioning under a similar mindset. If they provide no controlled substances to pts…. they have no worry about the DEA coming and screwing with them and fining them for exceeding some -undefined – standard of care and best practices.
To date, none of these healthcare corporations have suffered any financial consequences for establishing corporate no opiate – policies that stop their employees from prescribing controlled meds to any pts.
I would suspect that until those healthcare corporations has to deal with consequences from their “no-opiate policies” things will not change or even more of those corporations will join them with implementing no-opiate policies.
Unless some law firm gets involved and/or pts get some lawsuit started… IMO … the community’s future may closely look like what can be seen in the rear view mirror today.

My BP went to the Moon. What is more, so did my blood sugar.
After years of treatment for “diabetes” soon after cut-off, it turns out that it is no such thing but rather; Stress Induced Hyperglycemia.

I don’t know if Bev will come back to this post, but if she does, I don’t understand the correlation with the ACA,
It made it legal to “withhold treatment for people with chronic illnesses.” Us. What they’re doing is not solely due to the CDC. They’re just the last nail in our coffins. Getting rid of the “useless eaters.”US. This is what happens when people vote for someone without checking out their past but blindly believing what they say or not even paying attention. The ACA is unconstitutional and wouldn’t have become law without the corrupt SCOTUS Justice John Roberts.
CIAAG has it all laid out. They’re the ones who found the truth, the things I was finding when I had to go on SSD in 2009. We’re being studied without our knowledge or consent. The CDC has proven to be totally corrupt the last two years.

How do we get a lawyer to take on the greedy DEA? That’s the real problem. For the most part, we don’t have money. They have infinite resources. My sister and her husband have an America First group weekly and I was hoping to get to see a great lawyer, Tom Renz but her husband got sick and that meeting was postponed for a few weeks. He’s now very busy with other lawsuits concerning the past two years’ events and wasn’t available for the next meeting. ( I’ll just stop there, as this is a very hot button issue at this time. ) I don’t think there’s a lawyer out there that would care to take a case against this corrupt government. The ACA made this all legal. President Trump wanted to get rid of the ACA but NO Democrats were interested since it was their pride and joy to get this done. If more people would make phone calls, we MIGHT be heard. I tell whoever I talk to that there are millions of us and thousands in Ohio but Ohio CPPS aren’t calling. My State Senator, whom I’ve been talking to since late 2019, said others aren’t hearing from their constituents. Makes what I say a little hard to believe. I wrote a letter to SCOTUS but it doesn’t seem like many, if any others did. I don’t know for sure but haven’t heard that others did. Imho, THAT was our best chance. Personally, I have zero hope that the CDC will do the right thing and restore pain management.
I’ve been trying to contact everyone I can think of about this but the propaganda of the opioid epidemic is SO INGRAINED in people’s minds that the FIRST thing they say to me is that they’re BAD and SO ADDICTIVE and won’t listen to me try to give them factual info. There’s a guy ( Stew Peters ) on Telegram that’s figured out the opioid epidemic is FAKE but I can’t post links on there. I use CIAAG’s Violation of a Nation all the time, and have emailed it to him and others almost every day but have gotten no response. This is not the time to get attention for us, with the worldwide depopulation event happening. That’s MUCH bigger than several million Americans. I won’t stop trying though. I won’t ever stop trying, as long as I’m here. Our entire government is corrupt and could care less about us but SOMEBODY has to!! I just wish others would join me but… Jmo, but if I can do it from my recliner or bed, others can.
IMO – anyone who thinks they can take on the DEA – is a fool – the DEA is part of the DOJ and taking on the DEA would call out the entire attorneys working for the DEA. The target should be big healthcare corporations… the graphic in this post shows a pt with a BP of 218/141. The American Heart Assoc classifies that as a HYPERTENSIVE CRISIS (consult your doctor immediately) https://www.heart.org/en/health-topics/high-blood-pressure/why-high-blood-pressure-is-a-silent-killer and any BP pressure above 130/80 is HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE (HYPERTENSION) STAGE 1. Pts having BP in HYPERTENSIVE CRISIS level is a walking stroke/heart attack… not to mention eye & kidney damage. Law firms look for HARM/DAMAGES and DEEP POCKETS. If the prescribers/employees of these corporations are following some corporate edict/policy & procedures. There could be 100’s or 1000’s of pt seeking care from this same corporation whose BP is in the same boat and the corporation has DEEP POCKETS… In my experience, pharma meds for blood pressure will not lower elevated BP cause by under/untreated pain. Then there is also possible discrimination charges – civil right charges for refusing to treat pt because they are disabled and has a medically necessity for one or more controlled substances.
To be honest, I’d rather stay home and die from my BP if I can’t have my meds back. The last time I saw the NP at my PMP, my BP was high and she said she knows it’s likely from my pain, but they’re giving me everything they can withhold red flagging the DEA. I’m NOT going on BP meds. I HAD great pain management but the DEA took it away. My husband knows not to take me to the ER when it spikes and I can’t catch my breath. If it happens, so be it. Ohio has a totally corrupt AG and he’s personally benefitted from the opioid settlement in 2019. He talks about Harm Reduction but we all know what that is. It’s NOT pain management.
The last time that I saw my so-called pain management doctor IN PERSON, my BP was 195/110 and my heart rate was >120. He didn’t even comment about this.
I’m out of options… there are no doctors accepting patients that are being treated with opioids.
My unbiological sister passed away from untreated pain about two months ago. She was only 60 years old, and her lack of treatment led to total body shutdown, with the kidneys affected first, followed by everything else.
