There's enough research now to show that spinal cord stimulation, which can cost more than $500,000 for individual patients with complications, should not be advised for chronic pain.

Gabapentin is linked to dementia Spinal cord stimulator linked to paralysis/infection/increased pain Cymbalta linked to suicide Suboxone linked to dental decay/mouth trauma There’s no denying it

Died out of desperation for pain relief
@CMerandi @ibdgirl76 UGH I just found out from my mom that my aunt's doctor cut her off of her pain medication for no reason and she died last night from something her son got her trying to help her since she was desperate 🤬
Chestfeeding, for sure Makes me feel uncomfortable, even saying it out loud
What is the most Orwellian term or phrase from the last few years? Chestfeeding?
Thank you to all the doctors/nurse practitioners who have recently subscribed to our Patreon page Eye-opening, right? If you have earned one penny speaking out against pain medication, you will be duly noted on Patreon patreon.com/c/thedoctorpat…
Never, ever, let a doctor convince you to get the buprenorphine extended release injection indivior.com/en/media/press…
“I am a pain management specialist in Florida. Recently Publix, a large supermarket chain down here with pharmacies has been cutting off a lot of pain management specialists” Nice job, @supportprop @ShatterproofHQ - are you proud?

If you have earned one penny speaking out against pain medication, you’re a disgusting vile human being and you are responsible for these drug shortages

This poor guy attempted suicide after being cut off his pain medication The corrupt academia of @supportprop would say “but at least he’s not an addict” So f’g sad

This doctor speaks out against pain medication because he’s a former drug addict Of course, Terry, you’re a pain grifter - a judgmental one at that Never fails, they are always the former drug addict filled with judgment


The USA is rapidly approaching the poorest African Nations in how we manage pain. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC28…
This is what it looks like. An orthopedic surgeon treats pain by the book—gets raided anyway. No overdoses. No fraud. No crime. Just a DEA that punishes healing. #ChronicPain #DEAOverreach #PDMP #DoctorsUnderSiege
Orthopedic surgeon, Arizona, targeted by the DEA for treating his patients postoperatively
Another Suboxone victim who developed mouth trauma and is seeing an ENT Any provider who minimizes Suboxone dental decay/mouth trauma is a scumbag Start to wean off the poison

@user5893784: I took your advice, Claudia. I canceled surgery the morning of whilst in the parking lot” Wallet pain tends to hurt the most Multimodal approach means no opioids Just ask this orthopedic surgeon
Anna Lembke, Stanford conartist, claims pain patients are on disability for the paycheck Meanwhile, it gets paid 30 -50k per speaking engagement
Yup, Anna Lembke, MD is arguably just a sophisticated con artist/ scammer.
And the pain grifter of the day goes to…… Terry Sellers, MD - former addict “I’m currently 23 years sober and licensed for 18 years as a board certified addiction medicine physician.” Detox1Global = pain grift
