I wish I could see this kind of research as a step forward. Unfortunately, the current environment of open animus & hostility toward #ChronicPain patients, means this research could be used to further stigmatize people w/ pain. #ChronicPain isn’t mental illness.

After being on methadone to treat pain for 19 YEARS, these mfers are denying me coverage. Because of stupid BS that has nothing to do with my pain. Addiction/overdose? I'm taking as prescribed = perfectly safe. All these requirements have been met. WTF?!

The US punished the law-abiding producers of opioids in the US, suing them into bankruptcy. We also cracked down on precursor chemicals that make these drugs, and I’m sure that’s making the shortages happen worldwide. Our fucking cruelty knows no bounds never stops.

Dumfuks of the day 🏅

These are the priorities of our elected officials. It's good to know they're working hard on our behalf.

It's no wonder this country is the laughingstock of the civilized world 😑

Can I get one order of Sex Ed, a side of basic biology and a tall glass of WTF please?

Tonight’s sunset (to cleanse your timeline)…

Pro-life men,

“women owe it to society to continue to reproduce even if they don’t want to”

Also the men,

“you want me to pay for kid’s school lunches through my taxes that I already pay? No way am I paying for other ppl’s kids!”

Anti choicers do enjoy showing off their incompetence.

Using birth control is significantly safer than going through pregnancy, particularly in the US where the maternal mortality rate is ever increasing.

llllllllllllololololol

😱🤦‍♀️

In yet an another instance, Makis ghouls to a new low. No he targets the death of a 2.5 month old

While he never makes an exact claim that vaccines caused the infants death, he uses temporal associations with death and timing of vaccinations

Despicable

1st. Anyone using any 'god' as justification to guilt people into a lifestyle they do not actually want, is peddling oppression, manipulation, & abuse.

2nd. Expecting a partner or husband to be an equal partner in taking care of the home they live in, isn't remotely a big…

HPV being on the list is absolutely INSANE.

1. Half of all people have or will develop at some point in their lives. It goes away on its own for 80% of people and is vaccine preventable

2. There’s NO TEST for HPV for people with male anatomy. So they wouldn’t know they had it

Police officer: I've been a police officer for over ten years and sometimes when I respond to a domestic call I say to the mother (who is the victim) 'how can you let your children go through this?'

Me: How many times in 10 years have a you said to the perpetrating father…

One of the wilder things about this mindset is that it *has been* common and encouraged for folks getting chemo to mask in clinical settings. This just wouldn’t have been commented on in 2019. Because yes - we’re all sacks of germs!

If there’s any good that can come from the life and death of OJ Simpson, let it be this: Men over 40 need to have a PSA blood test to screen for prostate cancer every one to two years. If your MD says you don’t need it or it’s time to stop screening, get a second opinion.…

This is wildly inaccurate & it disenfranchises patients with pain & #SUD . Drugs aren't magical & they don't cause addiction. They're wonderful political & financial tools wielded against a weary population.

Never believe the lie that using #opioids for pain ensures addiction. ⬇️

I saw my Primary MD yesterday. I commented about the form of Pain Contracts, looking like something designed by/for the Dept. of Corrections. His response was, it is required to protect Dr.'s, many Dr.'s won't prescribe opiates because it puts their license at risk. 1/5
