Inadequate Pain Control- How To Stop It?

Updated

Unethical failure to adequately treat pain continues after years of consideration of same as unethical. What can we DO? These are real people doing real suffering. I know how to get what I need but only because of medical/pharmacological sophistication coupled with a wonderful primary care MD..

MD's tell patients DEA won't allow it... Patients adhere to old myths (like the woman who couldn't get oxycodone but was AFRAID to use the morphine prescribed because of a long-discarded mythology as well as the advent of very effective SR morphine formulations which make it less dangerous than aspirin.

Unfortunately, I don't think there will be any way to stop these problems, until such a time as people stop abusing such medications.

Every doctor has to be on guard for such behavior and they face serious ramifications if they government finds their prescribing practices questionable.

MY comment: If one considers the relative damage of a few pharmaceuticals getting loose vs the potentially damaging or lethal bathtub products it all fits into place. Gov't has no place between Dr. and patient as all sorts of problems and misguided attempts at solving them MUST crop up. It's just a losing battle that creARFRXates more damage than it does solve anything.
