As I'm sure a lot of you know there is a massive opiate crisis in America. People who are buying them off the street are overdosing on them and people who get then from doctors aren't taking them as prescribed. So the FDA and the CDC are cracking down on doctors to cut down pain medication for those who suffer from pain conditions and truly need them to get through their day. I just wanted to make people aware of what is going on and that they can help by not abusing opiates. You can make the difference between a pain patient getting their medication or not getting hardly anything at all. People who truly need these medications to survive shouldn't be punished because people are buying them off the street and overdosing. But that is what's happening and many people who never thought of suicide have killed themselves because they are being lowered on their medication or not getting any at all. I'm one of those people who are being punished! I have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome which is the highest ranking pain condition in medical history. I've lived with this condition for 14 miserable years and I don't know how much longer I can do it especially now that my doctor has cut me down on my pain meds which is the only thing that shaves a little of the pain off.
