Having problems with message search?
Hi Gray - we need to have more exposure on the dent in the lives of people in genuine pain who are affected by negative stereotypes, and there is never enough education on the terrible effects of losing medication because of not-relevant scenarios. So glad you are posting and sharing links.
PS: I have spoken/continue speaking regarding Pain in different fora including the United Nations, and it occurs to me that I am not sure this invitation (below) has appeared on this list. Included are pictures and audio and talking posters (multimedia) relating to the UN Disability Treaty now in progress, and if members here are interested or interested in attending just wave.
:) again, LDMF.
Very best wishes

This item here from a major media criticism website really tells an interesting story about problems with that series last fall about Oxy. Read on if you are interested...here's to hoping that reports like this keep the media honest about reporting on issues that really matter to people, such as pain management.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A44798-2004Feb15.html (registration required!) -- Washington Post (reg. req.)Why did the Orlando Sentinel fail to report the criminal background of the man profiled in its OxyContin series? Managing editor Elaine Kramer tells Howard Kurtz: "We still don't know exactly what happened. We're looking into it pretty actively and aggressively." A rep for the firm that makes the painkiller says: "Clearly, it would appear the newspaper did not do an accurate job of researching the story, and compounded that by concealing information that was known to them for some period of time."
