Saving Chronic Pain Management Safety
Please sign my petition to help keep doctors available to manage chronic pain with controlled medications. The involvement of the government is pushing patients to drastic measures to control the agony in which they live, including, but not limited to, suicide .
Why is this important?
Too many people are being taken off medicine that gives them their only quality of life, only due to government involvement. Pain management by physicians is much safer and helps these people with the only quality of life they can get. Most patients of pain management are held to strict policy agreements including drug testing, pill counts, monthly visits and trying to find alternative treatments, which are often painful and do not help. We are patients, not addicts, and should be treated with respect. When will our lives matter? When more people die trying to live?
