"If you give a person opiates and their life gets worse; they are a drug addict.
" If you give a person opiates and their life gets better; they are a chronic/intractable pain patient."
"WE ARE NOT THE SAME!!!!"
Look into Dr. Kolodny and the 2016 CDC Opioid Guidelines. That is the piece to the puzzle everyone misses. The government convinced everyone, doctors, the pharmacists, the public, that prescription pain medication caused the opioid problem. But the actual guidelines show it is illegal drugs causing the problem. The guidelines clearly state, level 4 (the worst) evidence, was used to convince the entire country of a medical lie. This was the test of "Can we pull off the COVID scam"? Yes, it will work.
Oxycodone (opiates) is a prescription drug that controlled, not removed, chronic pain for millions of people for thousands of years. You people demonized it to the point where those of us with painful medical conditions (RA) have to self medicate. What did you think would happen? The pain didn't stop because you outlawed the safe medication. You forced people into the black market while increasing drug addict overdose deaths. Great job!!

@TheKanehB@cremer_mary@VinoNStrosGal Mimi:
Thanks for doing the research on that. Please drop your scientific findings here so we can all learn from you. I, for one, am unfamiliar with this study.
Thanks.
Great!! Now go arrest Dr. Kolodny. He has made billions and caused untold suffering to millions. Veteran suicide is up because he lied about prescription opioids causing the Opioid Crisis. Please read the actual 2016 Opioid Guidelines. Level 1=strongest scientific evidence. Level 4=weakest scientific evidence. Opioid Guidelines= level 3&4 evidence. Their own charts prove they are lying. But Dr. Kolodny just keeps getting richer as more chronic pain patients (including veterans) keep dieing.
The CDC/DEA continue to treat the fraudulent Opioid Guidelines as law. Please READ the actual guidelines. Level 1=strongest scientific evidence. Level 4=worst scientific evidence. All evidence used for the guidelines=level 3&4. This means millions of effected lives, thousands of veteran suicides, and untold suffering because they follow the worst scientific evidence of all time. And no one investigates, no one cares. Politics.
@CMerandi Isn't it odd that out of 10 reasons for disability, 3 of them are mental health. Is that why psychiatrist want to be in charge of pain management/disability? They think all are mental disorders? They don't understand physical medicine? Honest question.
Government rules meant to curb opioid abuse are leaving some chronic pain patients without the relief they need, according to doctors and advocates. https://t.co/WF2n1pBWKC
@FTC Great!! Now look into PROP's illegal claims. Dr. Kolodny, the President of PROP has made 10 Bil dollars telling lies & hiding COI while writing the CDC Opioid Guidelines. When will he be investigated?
Be aware: the CDC & DEA are still doing this to chronic illness & disability patients. If you need pain medication to treat a documented medical condition, such as RA, Sickle Cell, EDS, you are lucky if you can get pain medication. End of life cancer patients are being told "We can't give you anything for the pain, you may become addicted." At end of life, I don't think addiction should be the concern. Compassion should. But medicine has lost compassion today. Good luck if you get sick or injured. I hope you don't have a serious, painful injury and get sent to a "no opiates" hospital. America needs to wake up before it's to late.
Great!! Now can you help those of us with documented physical illness get back on the opiate pain medication that gives us quality of life? "If you take opiates and your life gets better, you are a chronic pain patient. If you take opiates and your life gets worse, you are an addict." We are not the same.
Great advice!! Now, take care of those of us already sick. Rescind the CDC 2016 & 2022 Opioid Guidelines. Let us decide our own healthcare goals. "If you take opiates and your life gets better, you are a chronic pain patient. If you take opiates and your life gets worse, you are an addict." We are not the same!!
@nicksortor@factpostnews PROP, a group of psychiatrists, had the CDC put out Opioid Guidelines. Some government agencies do as they are told. Please read the guidelines. They admit they use the lowest quality evidence. 1,the best...4, the worst. They used level 4 evidence.
@libsoftiktok@wpath Great!! Now maybe they can sue PROP for lying about chronic pain patients causing the opioid crisis. 500, 000+ veteran and civilian patients are "missing" from the Medicare rolls since PROP got the CDC Opioid Guidelines published.
@Katamac1967@CMerandi@InsularEntropy I have fibromyalgia. There is no cure. There is no known treatment. There is no 1 body part to fix. Yes, opiates are the only thing that works. Yes, it is very difficult to get opiates for fibromyalgia.
@SecKennedy Please look into the 2016 & 2022 Opioid Guidelines. Many lies and conflicts of interest led to thousand's of civilian & veterans suicide, death by medical decline & accidental overdose.
@greggutfeld This all started when the government stopped doctors from prescribing opiates. That was the test run. Can the government control the doctors, and by default patients, in regards to health decisions? The answer was yes, so they moved on to COVID for the whole population.
