Democracy was being assaulted long b4 this issue surfaced.

Americans denied legal pain medications simply because they suffer with chronic illnesses, for example. #opioidhysteria #CPP

@w7voa
That would be the same CDC that loves to make #CPP suffer via its massive #opioidhysteria campaign.
@EthanHolmes @NoahH I'm with Ethan. Two peas in a pod, it was Bill Clinton who urged Trump to make it harder for those with chronic pain to obtain legal paid medications. #opioidhysteria
Pissed me off. Looking at Evil In Ohio on Netflix. Traumatized person taken to hospital. Nurse reports that patient's pain is being treated with (drum roll) Tramadol. #opioidhysteria

So when I got to the pharmacy (for the second time today, thanks “family” day🫠) I was greeted by this giant sign in the window (& again at the counter) that states the pharmacy keeps all narcotics in a time locked safe.

There were already clear notices about how narcotics are dispensed/kept on site… but I guess the province decided that wasn’t enough & more hostile signage was needed🙃

Easing prescription rules for opioid treatment meds did not increase overdose deaths, study finds

During the coronavirus pandemic, federal agencies changed rules to allow qualified clinicians to remotely prescribe buprenorphine, even to new patients.

I’m given ketamine microdoses orally. Doesn’t do much for pain. But since I won’t try LDN, they won’t help me with other options. Suddenly they say they won’t refill ketamine unless I drug test. I’m not leaving my house unnecessarily.
