#PainPatients
Whether or not the #opioids end up working will vary between patients (for many differing reasons), but ALL #PainPatients deserve #PainRelief and they all deserve the chance to find out if opioids will help them. —TMS.

Americans don’t want to believe that the federal government — their government — is as disingenuous, as corrupt, and as thuggish as it is.

Local and federal officials have been conducting interviews with Southern Nevada residents living in overdose hot spots to get more insight into those struggling with substance use, including their housing status, and if and how they have access to overdose interventions like naloxone.

Nevada overdose rates have dropped by 2% since last year, but that’s a smaller decline than in most of the rest of the country, and local health officials aren’t sure why. The number of people dying f...

“#ChronicPain patients just want to continue to function… And sometimes that requires medication… Everybody feels pain differently and what works for some may not work for all. #PainPatients just want quality of life!” https://buff.ly/3AzOPJu #Chronicpain

The unfair war on buprenorphine
A physician explains why buprenorphine, a life-saving opioid addiction medication, is being unfairly maligned by misinformation and fear from the pain community.

Back on Twitter in the old days there was a very real, fairly large, community of #PainPatients That advocated for our rights as citizens in this country. I do miss that community. If any of my old pain suffering frnds from there are on here? I'm here. I miss you. We can still support each other!
But you know, the war on pain patients is a real thing and none of these lunatics gives a damn about any of that. In fact, they'd prefer all of us useless people just hurry up and die so.. here we are.

If you can't find an activist group to join, you CREATE one.

My first sit-in was in 1986; my HS principal tried to prevent my preg friend from graduating.

In the 90s, I took back the night with other #DV and #rape survivors.

In the aughts, I created a nonprofit for #painpatients.

Had a full day at the hospital. Thankfully I got my fave tech. Grateful because he is so gentle. He never slaps my arm! Double dipping on doc appts is terrible for patients. We should not see more than one doc in a day. That has not been my experience this year! #PainPatients #Spondyloarthritis #APS

Why do autoimmune and autoinflammatory patients, connective tissue disease patients, patients with sinus and migraine/headache disorders, and #ChronicPain patients suffer so much with seasonal changes and barometric air pressure changes?

Spotting red flags when we see them and letting others know it:

"You should absolutely walk/roll/hobble away when anyone, including medical professionals, offer their unsolicited opinion on how YOU talk about YOUR pain."

Chronically yours,

2/2: If you “know me” from X/Twitter, I want you to know I (hopefully) won’t be posting about politics here bc I want to be focused on the #ChronicHealth & accompanying conditions I battle. I want to #unite #PainPatients, not further divide us politically. #Thanks for your #understanding & #support.

Just a heads up for US #PainPatients and ♿️ community that are still being treated:

There's currently a shortage of pain medications oxycodone, morphine, and most opioids including fentanyl citrate.
