Please Address the FDA thinking they are doctors and interfering with Dr.'s who prescribe opioids for Chronic pain patients. They have even put physicians in jail for what they consider over prescribing. They know nothing about that individuals pain and health history. Stay out of their business, in addition stop them from lower production of opioids because they think they are helping the opioids “crisis”. What is happening is people are having their legal drugs for pain taken away and then those people go to the streets out of desperation. This harms those who take there pain medicine as prescribed with their agreements with their doctors. The amount of illness and thus pain in this country is high due to the poisons in our food, water and air. Please quit punishing the law abiding citizens in chronic pain who have relationships with their doctors and follow the rules. Claudia A. Merandi with the Doctor Patient forum has excellent information and advocacy for patients in chronic pain who have been abandoned due to FDA policies and losing their physicians because they are fearful to losing their licenses.
No more punishment of Chronic Pain Patients, Cancer Patients and Hospice/Palliative Care Patients!
This is unfair and unjust as a chronic pain patient I don’t believe anybody has the right to dictate my medication that helps me with my body. Nobody has a right to tell me what my pain feels like nobody has the right to make me feel less than a person because I need to have pain medication to live somewhat normal life, no pharmacist doctor or anybody else for that matter has the right to treat me as if I’m a lesser of a human being because I need to take a medication nobody has the right to humiliate me or call me a drug or treat me as if I am the black plague When I am a law abiding citizen I have worked my whole life and I never asked for a chronic ailment which needed pain medication. Nothing in the world is more frightening than worrying. If you’re going to get your medication that month or worried if they’re going to try to take you off that medication and put you on numerous medication that you know are even worse for your body and aren’t going to help you , let’s give people the medication. They need in order to live the life that they have the right to live by the constitution of the United States for thank you Gina Conand.
Need to add the DEA in with the FDA
