Tell the CDC That Chronic Pain is Disease and to Stop Taking Away and Reducing our Opioids, One of Our Only Life-Lines

Created by J.A. on May 07, 2016

JGF Pain Is Not Addiction Petition
By signing this petition I support the rights of Legitimate Chronic Pain Patients to receive desperately needed medical treatment, including the use of opioids.
More people are affected by chronic pain than heart disease, diabetes, and cancer combined. With no cures or effective treatments, we are left with few options to maintain quality of life. Removing Opioids as part of pain management for the disabled or long term chronic pain patient is unjust and the opposite of Do No Harm.
We demand the President, US Congress and State Legislature, CDC, DEA, FDA and other governmental and local governmental entities, protect the rights of chronic pain patients to receive the best medical care, including the use of opioids for pain management.
