  • The opioid crisis has been growing for years. It is important to determine the most effective ways to prevent addiction, and at the same time identify the best approach to treating pain. Carilion Clinic is part of an opioid task force in Virginia that has developed a comprehensive guide to community resources for opioid addiction www.carilionclinic.org/opioid

    What's the worst pain this doctor has been in? I can tell you not a lot. My torso was opened up, so my stomach could be reconstructed, three months I was in the hospital and the pain was indescribable. Every four hours I was given the maximum does of oxy, for three months. I walked away with no addiction. But I thank God for opioids. This doc can take his opinion and shove it. I've had many pains since and its been almost impossible to get oxy, I am done with pain because I've felt the absolute worst of it.

    Short term pain therapy is what people complaining aren’t understanding.
    If you are taking medication for years you’re an addict and there’s nothing to be ashamed for but we need to understand that.

    Most everything we do in life would be considered unnatural. We drive cars instead of walk, we use phones and computers to communicate instead of using our hands or mouths or we cook food using a microwave or eat processed foods and take medication for varying issues. Example: You go to the doctor for high blood pressure and they prescribe you a pill to help with that issue, yet you cannot take a pill to be out of pain so you can live your life, you have to alleviate pain the natural way.
    So, we have the ability to help people get and stay out of pain, yet all the people in power don't feel we should be able to use it.... What a time to be alive.

      THANK YOU!!! Very well said, but will this insanity stop? This is really serious- people are dying at there own hands, not over-dosing. What a loud message. It's a form of murder. They arm people with narcan to save an addict, but " cause " people to die who have ligit reasons to take Opiates.👏

This is brutality by our government in forcing people so low on opioid pain medications that they have relied upon, in my instance, for over a decade. I have been reduced to a life of perpetual agony over this pas year due to this barbaric push by our government of eliminating, virtually, all opioids for pain medication, unless, of course, you are dying from cancer or other palliative care scenarios. Sure, give relief to the dying, but not the living!!! You do not know what you are talking about until you have experienced pain due to a slip of the knife in surgery.

Yet because of people who abuse them, I have to worry about my Dr retiring. I can't move to a warmer safer climate because I'm worried I won't find another Dr willing to prescribe them.

    Cognition and Opioids
    As an adjunct to this video on opioids, it is important to understand that increasing opioid levels in the brain can be achieved through simple cognitive protocols. This by no means is a ‘cure’ for addiction, but it can help ameliorate cravings when opioid levels are low. The proof is in the pudding or in the procedure of course, and I ask the readers forbearance with this observation, explanation, and the more detailed procedure presented here and linked below.
    An Observation and Modest Proposal
    Individuals who engage in tasks that have a consistent and high degree of ‘meaning’ (e.g. sporting events, creative activity) commonly report a feeling of high alertness and arousal (but not pleasure) that may be construed to be due to the activation of mid-brain dopamine systems as a result of moment to moment perception of positive act/outcome discrepancy. However, a significant subset of these individuals also report a feeling of pleasure or bliss, but these reports are characteristic only in non-stressed situations when the musculature is relaxed. Since relaxation engages opioid systems in the brain (and covert neuro-muscular activity inhibits them), and because opioid and dopamine systems can co-stimulate each other (with dopaminergic activity scaling with the salience of the outcome, as well as attendant pleasure), blissful states require the simultaneous engagement of resting protocols and meaningful cognitive states, behaviors that can be very easily replicated in day to day life.
    A more detailed explanation (pp.47-52 and 82-86) of this position in the following open source book on the neuro-psychology of resting states. It is based on the work of the distinguished affective neuro-scientist Kent Berridge of the University of Michigan, who was kind to vet the work for accuracy.

      Why is it so hard to comprehend that people have extremely hard pain and all the other methods just don't work?! Sometimes the best you can do with pain meds is help yourself tolerate it better. The pain can be above a strong dose of Opiates. People just can't seem to wrap their minds around this truth. Not one single person who has had or has that kind of pain would recommend other alternatives after that road has already been walked down. But that's exactly what's going on. People get hopelessly depressed, which doesn't take long when you wake up every morning and wish you didnt. That is NO way to live. Inhumane and a slow torture. Everyone seems to not be able to understand this except the people feeling the pain, giving suicide a serious thought. Get with it. Climb out of that box. Try some other shoes on. You still wouldn't have a clue, but you could try alittle harder.

    medication would soon become too expensive for daily maintenance, will soon be
    forced to purchase the more cheaper street substances of which your livelihood depends,
    have only to sit back and wait for the customers to come banging on your doors…Pharmaceutical
    manufactures, prescribers, and dispensaries, all become top earners on the backs
    of the addicted…and this is the sad part to report, law enforcement gains can
    be included, infringing on civil liberties of us all…with massive search-and-seizure
    invasion’s of our homes and privacy, and I would be remiss if another top earner
    is not included, expensive drug rehabilitation centers…all providing a toxic undesirable

    Yes, forced tapering, which the whole country is undergoing (at least some are- others are just being thrown to the curb) is not as easy as they want you to believe. I have been tapered down to the point where I couldn't make it to my Dr.s appt. so I could get my refill in 2 days. He had reached that dose that made it impossible for me to take care of myself, and put me in pain 24/7. I was on an " acceptable" dose, by the gov't 's standards, but this pain clinic was/is cutting everyone down to zero pain meds. I must find another Dr. who will not only be O.K.with prescribing Opiates, but will bring me back up to where my pain was best managed and I had been on for more than 2 yrs. Or else what am I going to do? Go to an assisted living arrangement ? I'm almost 62, but why go there when if I was able to manage my pain I wouldn't have to? It's sadly crazy.😣😵😭😠💔👎💀
