If I sit or stand more than 5 minutes. Unbearable unbelievable pain. #ChronicPain #DisabilityTwitter #RSD #CRPS #DisabilityRights

Post Surgery Pain Medication Risk

Post 1/4 🧵

‼️ ZERO fatal overdoses from short-term post-op opioids in 1.4 MILLION surgeries. 💥
That’s <0.01% risk of dying.

Tylenol alone? 56,000 ER trips every year. 🤯

Yet doctors are terrified to give you the one thing that actually works.

🔴 THE RIGGED REALITY
• One extra refill → instant DEA/CMS alerts🚨

• Too many scripts → hospital loses millions in bonuses💰

• Every pill tracked in state databases💊

• Doctors go to federal prison for treating pain “too well”🥼

• 3-day caps are now the norm → run out? Beg or suffer🫠

Result: You get 3 pills and a prayer.🙏

Can't believe it's November already. It's CRPS Awareness month again already, kids and still no cure so I am going to keep HOPE alive by spreading awareness #Nervember I am still alive and will try and post more!

Insured? Still can't afford to be healthy due to coverage, co-pays or deductibles? What have you gone w/o and/or postponed? We shouldn't have to resort to MEDICAL TOURISM to be healthy!! #underinsured #insurancereform SHARE! #workingpoor

Sometimes I feel like a "Who" in "WhoVille". I am here, I am here, I am Heeeeeeeere! 👋👋👋👋 Hello beautiful people!

@Burg6Gemma Thanks. It went as expected. Fresh out of school wanted to eliminate 80% of my meds. Tired of the fight. Collect myself after I recuperate from the traumatic experience &amp; attempt to find a new one. This is all #intentional #disabilityhate #IwasFINE

House fire, cancer, broken bones, eviction, repos, 3 natural childbirths, 2 car accidents, held at knife point, tooth fractures, my chronic illls-pale compared 2 the trauma going to my new PM Dr’s appmnt tmrrw. Causing more PTSD than anything else I’ve been through.

Why can I advocate for others, but when it comes 2 me I freeze? My Dr left &amp; I'm being told (by televisit conveniently) I can no longer have my current meds &amp; doses. "Not safe" after 17 yrs. Have 2 see someone new next Thurs. 🤦‍♀️ #cpp #chronicpain #myturn

@sbcountysheriff That poor baby 🍼 💔. The parents are terrible actors. Talking about him in the past tense? 🤔 Just a matter of time until we find out what really happened.

@hoss_tagge "A pair of studies".... I wonder 🤔 how much they got paid for such lazy, unbelievable garbage?

[Debra Carter 🌵♿ ;;; @DebraCartles]

@mongo207 @greta Annnnnnd, if it's called in will your pharmacist fill it? Or,will they become God and deny it's necessity.

[Debra Carter 🌵♿ ;;; @DebraCartles]

@AdamGentry2021 @greta 💯 percent she'll have her pain managed properly with opiates, she just won't be sharing that information publicly because of her previous stance. She'll boast Tylenol and essential oils, etc. Hypocrisy runs deep with these types.

@ravensspirit68 Hugz 🤗 to you ♥! I pray 🙏 you find some rest soon!

@disneymom1126 That's my all time favorite Monster! YUM! 😋

If you get generic meds from a foreign facility, please read the article in the comments about inspections... They weren't properly inspected *before* this. Your life LITERALLY may depend on you asking for something manufactured in the US. #chronicillness #Medications
