Dolores, That's just the feeling I'm getting... the old "take 2 and call me in the morning" routine. Millie.

Dear Helen: I signed the petitiion on oxycontin but you know this thing really worries me since I found this site and see the massive suffering amongst people who are not crazy nor chronic complainers. Although I do not take oxycontin and would not be a candidate to take it because I have to dissolve my pain medicine in my mouth because of my absorption factor. I know a lot of people are able to lead a half decent life with it and my fear is that the Dea wants everybody to take an aspirin and go to bed. So sad. Love you all, Dolores in Louisiana dtouch@bellsouth.net Millie wrote:

Seems when I get so far behind I find it hard to come back and get through the 500 e-mails. I am doing fine (hanging in there as many of us are).

When I went to my pain specialist this month I found out that my wonderful, caring, compassionate doctor had been raided by the DEA, FBI and the VA Medical Board. I believe this happened because he believes in treating the chronic pain patient and is not afraid to dispense opiods, including (oxycontin)! He has worked with the DEA previously in turning in those he felt maybe selling the drug, but they still have gone after him, as they are going after so many doctors in the country. It seems the DEA is not going to be happy until they get oxycontin pulled off the market, even if it takes taking down every pain specialist in the country.

Please take the time to sign the petition below to save this wonderful drug that is so needed by the chronic patient to have some semblance of life.

Thank you,

Helen C.
