  • Obviously people bitching on here have never dealt with piece of shit pain med seekers who give most others a bad name...this is not making fun of anyone...this is the truth. This bullshit happens EVERYDAY all day long and wastes time of all the ER staff trying to SAVE LIVES!!

  • Ridiculous! This marginalizes the pain community. This is not the norm, and people who require palliative care are being stigmatized due to the sensationalizing of pill mills and drug seekers.

  • Fuck Dilaudid....That shit made my heart felt like it was gonna jump out my chest! Would that be an allergy or just intolerence?

  • This is funny but I wish it was titled differently. Those of us with chronic pain (I have syringomyelia) are not the same as nutjobs who say they have every disease in the book and want a doctor to coddle them. By the way, ERs are freezing and God yes I need a three warm blankets every time I'm there. Imagine having a syrinx and laying flat on a board, shivering the whole time. It really amplifies the pain a hundredfold.

  • Well, In Italy and Europe it is the General Practitioner who prescribeslong-time pain-killers or similar drugs to their patients needing chronic therapies,because GPs generally know their patients and who is lieing and who is not.

I am grateful for that one doctor that listened to me and that led me to an amazing medical staff that have helped me deal with all my chronic conditions.

  • STOP LOOKING AT THE CHART AND LOOK AT THE PATIENT! I went to many doctors looking for help because I was in distress and the labs found NOTHING wrong with me. I was in pain, not sleeping, depressed, anxious, etc and guess what after going to a doctor that stopped looking at my chart and started listening to me we found out I have 3 autoimmune diseases (hashimoto thyroiditis, TMJ, Interstitial Cystitis), chronic migraines, and guess what? cancer...hmm..my labs have always looked good.

  • I have a chronic pain condition that is invisible to the naked eye and I've been in a flare up for a few days now and in pain. No pain Meds are working. I called my dr who is a specialist and she can't see me till mid November. I would go to another Dr but over the years I've found that Drs are NOT educated on chronic pain conditions and treat you either as a hypochondriac or drug addict. Therefore I have to suffer OR go to the ER for ineffective acute treatment for a chronic condition. They sy

  • This is ridiculous
