sun on your face, sand between your toes, a good book and your family by your side....ahhh Life is Good!!! Chronic pain patient & advocate.#myscarsdontdefineme
Just one comment of thousands that have come in over the past week. @CBSNews @bariweiss please consider addressing this story. It’s one of those stories only one narrative has been allowed in media.
@CBSEveningNews PLEASE report on the millions of chronic disease/pain patients who are being force tapered/cut off their FDA approved pain med. Doctors are fearful to prescribe due to CDC & DEA overreaching. Research CDC guidelines (2016)& the conflicts of interest of many of the “writers”. HELP
@tonydokoupil (2) medicine. The govt is now in the exam room with the doctors & patients. There was never an “opioid epidemic”. #’s of OD’s were skewed just as in Covid. Research the CDC prescribing guidelines and the conflicts of interest. The chronic disease/pain community is beingsilenced.
@tonydokoupil PLEASE report on the millions of chronic pain patients suffering from forced tapers/being cut off their FDA approved medications due to the CDC & anti opioid groups (PROP, FedUp, Shatterproof,etc). Patients are unaliving themselves and providers are being jailed for practicing(1)
@glennbeck The Doctor Patient Forum, @CMerandi@ibdgirl76. They are advocating for the millions of people who suffer from chronic diseases, resulting in chronic pain. Patients have been cut off their pain meds that allow them to have some quality of life. The govt is responsible for this!
@joeroganhq The Doctor Patient Forum with Claudia Merandi - @Cmerandi and Bev Schechtman - @ibdgirl76. Millions of people suffer from chronic disease/s that result in chronic pain. Due to the govt, many patients can no longer receive treatment & providers are being falsely prosecuted.
Hold on a minute. The public began losing trust in the CDC back in 2016 when it issued its half-baked opioid guidelines, manipulated by the dishonest people at PROP. It was #ChronicPain patients who FIRST called out the shameless politics and junk science of Tom Friedan and Roger Chou. CPPs challenged self-interested liars like Andrew Kolodny and Anna Lembke. Back in the 90s and the early 2000s, after the raging fires of the AIDS epidemic were put out, the CDC had a lot of credibility and a rock solid reputation. No reasonable expert criticized the CDC. Now the public basically expects dishonesty from the CDC. This is a public heath tragedy but the damage is mostly self-inflicted.
I don't want to go back to the government, but I would to help the millions of #CPP harmed.
Restructure the CSA and 21 CFR 1306.04.
De-list Marijuana and other psychedelics.
End the war on doctors and pain.
Restore pain patients' rights and access to treatment. End quotas and restore the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship.
@CMerandi@realDonaldTrump
@crystalmurphy28 Thank you for being the voice of the chronic pain community @DanLairdMD !
You are a rockstar!!
Working together, we remain CPPSTRONG 💪🏼💪🏼
@LelenaPeacock I do as well!!!! Music is one of my coping mechanisms. I thought it went perfectly with the situation I had dealt with (yep, it was a true story). 💞
Please RT: My Life in Letters - 100+ published papers that reveal the fraud and misdirection of US CDC and VA in their fatally flawed opioid prescribing guidelines. https://t.co/lBPZTbscK2 via @LinkedIn

Please go to Policies for People :
We are silenced,suffering,some are dying. Help bring “care” back to healthcare. Those of us w/ chronic disease/s do not have a “seat” at the table when opioids therapy is discussed. We need a voice.
