I started treatment @ one of the first chronic pain treatment centers in at NYU way back in the 1980s … I have a chronic pain condition from surgical adhesions from way too many surgeries… they cannot be cured or treated except with surgery, which is only used in case of bowel blockage ..
Anyway … 2024 and I’m still a responsible pain mgmt patient… I have never once abused my drugs, went over the prescribed doses ..
it’s awful how they threw all of us under the bus.. so many uncessary suicides due to a one size fits all fix 😢😢😢😢
JP, I applaud you, it is a very hard thing to handle every day. As a pharmacist, it is doubly hard, especially when you don’t get sufficient relief, especially when you have the candy store at your fingertips.
Took 5 mg Oxy for years, as an Intractable Pain Patient, till Koldoney and Redfield called us addicts. War On Pain Patients began. Still going on. We proved it was illicit drug addicts. Yet we are still restricted to 2-4 days, I had 10 pills when I broke my wrist. Had to add the Tylenol they took out back in for it to work. No way in a splint to do ice packs.
The splint comes off in 3 weeks.
I've been seeing more articles of illicit drugs being smuggled in in raw food.
Atlanta DEA seizes 2,380 pounds of meth hidden in celery at farmer’s market
CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. — The Drug Enforcement Agency in Atlanta has seized 2,380 pounds of methamphetamine smuggled into the state by a Mexican drug cartel in the largest meth bust on record.
It’s the largest-ever seizure of meth made by the DEA in Atlanta, and the third largest nationwide in 2024.
Channel 2′s Tom Regan spoke to DEA agents, who said a cartel recently smuggled the massive load across the border in a 16-wheeler.
A total of 20 mg a day. And no it wasn't enough. When the wrong diagnosis of Idiopathic Colitis (Gastroparesis) hit, it required an ER trip and Dialauded. The sudden breath-taking pain under the floating ribs is from Spinal Stenosis. Not the healthy gallbladder or hernia. I do have stones.

Five milligrams of Oxycodone ain't gonna make nobody an addict. I used to take 150mg just to get going in the morning.
A total of 20 mg a day. And no it wasn't enough. When the wrong diagnosis of Idiopathic Colitis (Gastroparesis) hit, it required an ER trip and Dialauded. The sudden breath-taking pain under the floating ribs is from Spinal Stenosis. Not the healthy gallbladder or hernia. I do have stones.
Yeah, me too, or I used to, then I gave up sweetened tea, 1 glass of that stuff and I’ll see blood in my urine within the hour or two.
It got to the point where the bowels shut down.
how about Fentanyl, doens't that have addictive properties?
Abigail, Kenn, thanks for the restacks.
Thanks JP Spatzier. for the restack.
