Pain Experts Speak Out Against Forced Opioid Tapering

Pain Experts Speak Out Against Forced Opioid Tapering – Pain Medicine News – Dec 2018

The tone of this article is very pain-patient-centric and finally shows sympathy for our plight.

Appearing in a mainstream medical newsletter will give our cause far more visibility than what we publish on sites devoted to our cause, so I feel this is a positive sign that the media narrative is starting to shift.

I believe we’ll be seeing less of the outdated and outright wrong “innocent people getting hooked on prescription opioids” stories to more stories about Rx opioids denied to pain patients while others overdose on injected illicit opioids freely available on the black market.
