I just learned that my dear friend, who lost his left leg to sepsis from diabetes, and has TERRIBLE phantom leg pain, has been advised by #KaiserPermanente to be made a paraplegic - so he won't feel that pain anymore. WTF? #KaiserContinuesToKillAndMaim

Be warned. The company promoting "Emma" intestinal wellness products is a Bait and Switch monster. The doctor, Dr. Gina Sam, should be ashamed of herself. These people don't answer the phone, don't return emails.#EMMAHealthIsAScam

Amen. And don't get me started on the abject stupidity and greed of most of the medical professionals I am unlucky enough to meet, who thus far, have just caused me to get sicker, faster. I plan on being a REALLY nasty poltergeist ... #AlmostDeadAndReallyPissedOff

You live long enough, you lose people you love. Its starting to blur. In 2 days, it will be the anniversary of my little brother's death, Patrick. R.I.P. I might be seeing you sooner than I care to ... you burned bright, and then were gobbled up by ballet's darkness.

Well, it happened. Urine screen shows a drug I DID NOT TAKE. EVER. I am being punished for something I DID NOT DO. I have NEVER broken a pain contract. I have cancer. If my pain medicine is cut off, I will die. I'm dying fast enough, thank you. HELP. #UrinePanelPunishment

Families ruined because of opiates? Exactly zero in my experience. Oh the humanity. these are among the safest drugs ever approved by fda. Spare us the drama. what about getting pain treated.

Most people who blame prescription opioids were already abusing/using other substances Let’s face it, it was convenient to blame the doctor ANNE-MARIE: As I clearly stated - 5 people I knew never received an rx. They found and started it on the street.”

Doctor: “How are you?” Me, internally: Existence feels like a punishment, my body is decaying faster than my will to fight it, I haven’t got real rest in years and the only consistent thing in my life is pain. Me, out loud: “I’m fine.”

My guts are a mess. After seeing 3 in a row, all of whom terrorized and injured me, NOW I am being blacklisted by all their cronies. Gaslit. Every new doctor is actually BLOCKING MY PHONE NUMBER. Its unethical. At a minimum. I just don't want to die this way. #BrokeColon

Oh, and when people tritely respond "Everyone is going to die," I would like those people to go first. Because it is NOT A HELPFUL STATEMENT. Some of us are fighting for our very lives in a medical system so corrupt and useless it kills and tortures more than it helps. #PAIN

I wake up every morning feeling like I've been gut shot. Its agony. 15 years now. I didn't ask for it. Did nothing to cause it. Never abused or used any medicine. COVID and Long COVID triggered what is happening to me now. And my doctors are ghosting me. #HelpPainPatients

Claudia speaks the truth. I'm devastated. I've never done ANYTHING against the rules, but I'm going to die horribly anyway because of the stigma against Opioids. My heart is so broken. Its getting hard to breathe at this point. #PainCrisis

This is very powerful. I'm going to repost on Facebook, even though I know not one single "friend" will give a crap. They only care if its happening to them. Now, pictures of food get tons of replies. Ugh. Why bother...

🚨 "All Alone on an Island" 🚨 I just got the saddest email from a patient. I hear these stories every day, but this one shattered me. 💔 Russ, a 61-year-old disabled roofer, was stable on pain meds for 15 years—never misused, never broke a contract. Then, his doctor forced a

Just learned that my Vulvar Cancer is terminal. Told my sister. She called me a hypochondriac. Okay. One less Christmas Card. #CantPickYourFamily

Went to make another appointment for a biopsy with my Vulvar Cancer doctor. Found out she had left the practice. Didn't tell me. Not a word. So I have no Vulvar Cancer doctor. With active cancer that is killing me. #PatientAbandonment
