http://www.painnewsnetwork.org/stories/2016/8/25/surgeon-general-launches-anti-opioid-campaign When someone (a doctor, or someone who works for one) gets gravely injured or is killed because of this type of thought process, I will NOT be surprised. You're telling pain patients that our quality of life does not matter. If that's the case, then you have to factor in how in-human this is. … Continue reading Surgeon General Launches Anti-Opioid Campaign

It is the early morning hours of Thanksgiving Day here in the States. After spending hours preparing stuffing yesterday (which I highly suspect might suck today), I ended up with a highly stressful day which resulted in a migraine.

http://www.prevention.com/health/medical-fat-shaming?cid=soc_facebook_allure_11-2&mbid=social_facebook This is disgustingly real. There are doctors in many states that will refuse to treat you if you're ten pounds "overweight".

Don't EVER be afraid to get a … Continue reading Medical Fat-Shaming

I'm sitting here plagued by a migraine I wouldn't wish on a soul, except maybe Hitler, and he was probably soulless, so that puts that concept to rest. Please don't tell me he was "good to his dogs". I've known some horrible people who were good to a cat or good to their dogs; do … Continue reading I Hope To See A Cure

I had something great planned, and then insomnia bit and there's no way I will be able to put the finishing touches on it this morning. Perhaps later or tomorrow. At the moment, I am in desperate need of serious sleep. I am so tired, I'm shaking. 😦 I've had four migraines and a couple … Continue reading Zombie Lisa

Out Of The Ashes One of the first PILD pieces I ever wrote was about drug addiction. It was an incredibly poignant piece of prose, but the basic theme was this: Anyone can become addicted to prescription pain medicine. This is a simple fact. This is a new blog, and since many of the readers … Continue reading Out Of The Ashes
