Sorry to hear you have this problem. Chronic pain understanding and management is medieval, and seemingly getting worse rather than better over time.

- atdrummond 5y agoI really appreciate your kind thoughts. Thankfully Vipassana meditation has helped keep me sane in spite of the inane restrictions my doctors have been put under and also just so happens to help reduce the pain to a somewhat more manageable level. It's funny that a lot of the patients most aggressively hurt by simplistic one-size-fits-all reforms like the 90 MME cap are the patients most likely to support, and already be utilizing, integrative medicine. Such patients have been dealing with pain for years, decades often - they're not going to turn down any potential solutions that might help. All they ask is for their doctors to be given the autonomy necessary to prescribe legal, needed medications when called for.
