Today Walgreens and CVS were named Defendants in class action lawsuits in Federal Court in California and Rhode Island because of the discrimination policies against suffering Americans. This will expose them, their finances,m their treachery and their corrupt corporate culture.

I know I've been quiet. Why? Because I'm living my best life & after 1yr continue to do wonderfully well with Aroga. I try not to get angry I suffered needlessly 15 yrs. Aroga's only been around 4yrs. I wish the same relief for all pain warriors. <3
It's so frustrating 2 be sitting on the answer for so many sufferers but no one will believe. Company only 4yrs old & small. Products mighty & real. Sadly expensive because real ingredients are expensive. Now I'm saving $ w/o MD/meds to buy! Took me 2weeks 2 hav good hrs,3mo/days

This time last yr I was in ER getting Ketamine infusion for fibro attack that ended my 40yr career as a RN. Today, after 15yrs I'm off all meds & saw pain MD for last time. I got my life back! Arogalife.com/Kia

I feel like my qol is near nothing. A year and a half w/o meds and every day seems like a year. Shame on the gov and Drs for doing this to us. I can barely move tonight. ☹️

Just curious, what planet are you living on? Here on earth, there are no “incentives” to prescribe opiates. CPPs on opiates are hassled at every turn, discriminated against, and generally treated like complete sh*t. You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about... 🙄

I find this concerning. Won't this put patients at a higher risk of Identity Theft?🤔 SSN were removed from Medicare Cards for a reason. Now they're ✍ on RX?😱

My new pt: 80 yr old man with severe arthritis. Wife of 60yrs broke hip but MD won’t treat her pain. Husband shared his pills. His MD fired him. Who’s the wrong-doer? Wife’s MD, husband, or his MD?

Lawyers are slowly starting to advertise for pain patient abandonment. Doctors can't use, "the CDC recommended"-defense because they're guidelines. Where's the DOH/governor/CDC when you're getting sued? Crickets. Make the right decision.

If this is what it appears to be, why does @savonpharmacy allow its staff to harass chronic pain patients? Isn’t this arguably a violation of both HIPAA and ADA? Consider filing formal complaints w/ Board of Pharmacy and US HHS DOJ!
How about me being told by my pharmacist (she wrote it on my papers!) that my “Drug (Methadone) does not improve health outcomes” This pharmacy been filling my drugs over 6yrs. I have #CRPS. I changed pharmacies after that! The drug helps with my quality of life!! 😥

Functioning on a few hours sleep is par for the course among CPPs. I tell my pts, chronic pain is like an angry vicious dog barking in your face 24/7/365. It’s exhausting. Now we’re asking ill patients who’ve been up all night to fight for their basic legal right to healthcare.
I finally got 8 hours sleep. Took me 4 days but whatever. 😂👌 #ChronicIllness #ChronicPain #Insomnia #ChronicIllnessWarrior
