Where is Kolodny in all this? Everyone knows I think Andrew could probably pass the entrance exam for kindergarten. After that, it may get dicey.

I am almost fully certain that Andrew Kolodny will be sacrificed by his handlers in this thing, and in the coming weeks, many incurable painful disease patients may see a vindication the likes of which hasn’t been seen since the news came in they caught Ted Bundy.

Unfortunate, in there is no way on earth this thing could have been machinated by the likes of him, sorry. Anyone with a whit of sense would know that.

However, you reap what you sow, Andrew. Hey, I don’t even think you are smart enough to have even come up with the names of some of these groups, if that is any consolation. I am just an incurable painful disease patient though, so you hold me in the least esteem — and you have spent the last almost 15 years attempting to convince America I am a drug addict who drools when she speaks and is unable to form coherent thoughts. My words are worthless to you.

Who would have ever believed there used to be a time when Roger Chou and Jane Ballentyne thought that painful disease patients could have long term opioids, that it was okay?

They did think this was okay — in 2009. It is simply amazing how all one believes can change like that, because of a “promise” or something else…

The biggest trigger that caused this to be green-lit, no passing go, was the Baby Boomers. Yes, I know. I have those feelings, too, sometimes. I was raised by Boomers.

The Baby Boomers are getting old, though.

The first ones started knocking on Big Government’s door for their money — the money they paid into Social Security and all that jazz in June 2012.

Well, why not? It is not entitlement when you paid your whole life into this system.The Boomers by and large did. They worked.

The Washington greed factory foresaw all their perks, expense accounts, lavish spending going into an endless dark vat that is the Baby Boomers when the realization struck them these few claims were the extreme tip of a monster iceberg with a voracious appetite.

What better way to shut off that faucet? Taking away their pain relief, demonizing opioids, making the senior baby boomers feel like addicts for taking an opioid after years of stability taking one… or not allowing any when the time arrived that one needed it.

Less opioids= pain filled, shorter life expectancy/possible suicide= less benefits paid. More money stays in the life insurance account in DC. Of course, not the Boomers lucky enough to be in Congress, but everyone else.

Health, “Wellness”, Prescribing

The race was then on, the ACA was signed into law. The plan began to hatch all its subplots and subplans.

Stakeholder groups got into the action, and here is where crony capitalism is showcased and shines.

Abt Associates was contracted by the government to help them socially engineer the country into thinking opioids were horrible, filthy things. That anyone who used opioid therapy was a drug seeking addict. That any doctor who wrote a prescription was a “drug dealer in a white coat”. DEA suddenly was off the hook for their monstrous failure in keeping illegal Chinese fentanyl out of our country, as physicians were blamed for the first time in history for the deaths of addicts, even in the face of science.

2013 Asset Forfeiture- Starting in CA, laws were weaponized against physicians, and the DEA used this liberally to seize assets of doctors who they arbitrarily decided to arrest — after they used the (now weaponized) PDMPs (prescription drug monitoring programs). The one-two punch frightened doctors into virtually no prescribing of opioids.

2015-California’s Death Certificate Project is worst of all. A classic case of scare tactics via legislation, the government combs through old death certificates looking for “inappropriate prescribing practices” that “may have contributed to demise”. A sheer fright tactic to keep docs from prescribing — all in the name of this study!! There is no opioid crisis. Just their study! How many physicians are or have been arrested and/ or jailed and/or fined all in the name of this study?!

Brandeis University and Appriss Inc. aligned through Peter Kreiner of Brandeis, worked to implement the mass surveillance of the PDMP system in each state.

Not to mention the myriad of different ways and means of study done through the PDMPs themselves — the aforementioned hyperlink under Dr. Kreiner is to one of those ACA hatchlings that was thrown to the VA, “to assess the impact of the Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act of 2014 (VCA) on appropriateness of opioid therapy”.

Not only were the surveillance systems mass implemented without a single signature of informed consent, but the systems themselves were used in countless ways to extract reams of sensitive data from unsuspecting patients and sell it to the highest bidder on the healthcare market, as well as “study” in slanted and biased ways to forward this agenda.

As previously mentioned, Rep. Hal Rogers is the Congressional front man on this. Gubernatorial appointments were made to the KY Prescription Drug Monitoring Compact, a self serving, self enriching stakeholder group slipped through legislation.

We have no way of knowing just what data and where all this information went, because these agencies hide behind so-called “proprietary” algorithms and will not disclose their data fields.

A violation of HIPAA, privacy, human and civil rights that is incalcuble.

Healthy People 2010 was implemented with bright splashy graphics on their website. And we all fall for it every time they pull this crap. I have. We just do.

They do these things and invite public commentary — not because what we say is going to actually shape any policies.

Because we are all part of the study now, and they want us to participate in it.

It is fully Orwell’s world.

They file away the comments and move on to tweak the process based on the feedback- tweak it in a way that we won’t notice what we complained about previously.

It is not us shaping the policy. It is them shaping us through the policy.

HHS does this every time with their TaskForce Public Dockets. They post these for patients, not because they want our thoughtful comments and will listen to what we have to say.

They do this because they are required to do so by the ACA, they have to check off the box and show they received public feedback. No more. Hence why we feel ignored.

Because we are! They have absolutely zero interest in anything we have to say. What we think has nothing to do with what they are doing and will shape none of it.

This ties into the “advocate” clinicians on social media. Many patients believe that the clinicians on social media who are surveying them and studying them are on “their side”.

No.

Use of Social Media as Study Device/ Social Engineering Mechanism

The incurable painful disease patient communities exploded online in the wake of the implementation of the government’s scheme.

This was exactly what the government wanted to happen. They knew that people would be easy to study, manipulate, and also they could use the internet to their advantage socially to a large scale to push through their agenda through social engineering.

HHS and NIH, along with several college and university research departments immediately dispatched a multitude of their “finest”.

To pose as patients, troll agitators, patient sympathizers, advocates, leaders of movements… it is so thick in the incurable painful disease patient advocate movement at this point on social media between several different vested interest groups and the government, that one would be more likely to fall in with a faux advocate or faux patient than one would with a genuinely sick person in need of aid. It’s that disgustingly bad. Add in big pharma and their disinfo agents, and it truly is a hot mess.

Not to mention the junkies and the hypochondriacs that are always attracted to these groups. The junkies were immediately pressed into service. They were put to work as trolls and agitators. Paid in trade or cash to actively go after genuine leaders and effective opioid crisis advocates.

They would troll, agitate, and do as much as they could to get that person banned or deactivated off social media so their voice was silent and doing no damage to the government’s work.

These people would infiltrate every group they could, take screenshots of conversations, cause chaos in their wake wherever they went, and spent all their time on social media pretending to do good while being the very worst of human beings. It’s quite gross, the stunning hypocrisy. Lying about themselves and their lives to ingratiate as closely as they could to as many as they could. Blocking these people was like a death in the family to them. They carried on as though it was.

Many are active at this moment doing this very thing. People love drama. This won’t ever stop. The drama they provide keeps them popular.

The others were far worse.

Researchers swarmed in. Some were pretty open about what they were doing, however, patients mistook that openness to mean that person was working for the patients and helping them “gain their meds back”. Nothing could be further from the truth. These researchers had carte blanche to say whatever they had to. They were to gain the trust of patients so the patients would provide information to them — in the forms of surveys, stories, and infographics. Or better, messages in private groups that would provide a rich tapestry of accentuation to the research papers being written.

This proved to be surprisingly easy. Patients were desperate for someone to validate their experiences, especially an authority figure, someone who was a doctor or professional, and these horrible people played them like a fiddle.

Advocacy statisticians, NIH analysts, physicians from the beginning days in Washington State…so many people in the know would play both ends against the middle, dashing away to write it up and submit their pieces to JAMA, NEJM, and the like, or to provide to other physicians and psychiatrists who needed the information to plug holes in their “research”.

Patients were none the wiser.

ACA 4305 Advancing Research and Treatment for Pain Care Management

The part of the ACA that actually directly addresses pain, pain care and treatment is so short and vague as to render this entire topic rote and meaningless.

The only part of this that would raise any eyebrows to anyone is the little nugget buried in paragraph 2 under subsection (a) under 409J of 4305 says this, “ANNUAL RECOMMENDATIONS. — Not less than annually, the Pain Consortium, in consultation with the Division of Pro- gram Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives, shall develop and submit to the Director of NIH recommendations on appropriate pain research initiatives that could be under- taken with funds reserved under section 402A(c)(1) for the Common Fund or otherwise available for such initiatives.”

The NIH Common Fund has a person or two masquerading as “advocates” on social media networks. It’s interesting to see the interactions being made with these people, simply because of the shark like social climber personalities known behind the profiles. With the Common Fund funding set up as such and desperation of people for money for their psychosocial projects, one has to wonder where the intersection lies? There is no shame, apparently.

The 6 Building Blocks

The day of the CDC guidelines were issued, HHS released grant money to the states for the creation of the 6 Building Blocks programs the very next day, March 16, 2016. Of course, this originates in Washington State U and is being sold as a program to help facilitate patient centered care for the complex patient who is on long term opioid therapy. And our friends from Abt Associates are here! Surely this program is in the patient’s best interest.

The Definition of Bravery

The textbook definition of bravery is “the quality or state of having or showing mental or moral strength to face danger, fear, or difficulty.”

I have heard many patients and advocates carelessly say they would do many things… XYZ… if they found out what the “real” story was behind the CDC guidelines.

Well, here is your chance to prove it. I am telling you the story, the truth, and will you do what you have told me all this time?

Lauren Deluca and Shasta Rayne Harner, two painful disease patients, discovered everything I told you. Two disabled women.

After they discussed it with Jayne Flanders, the current Vice President of CIAAG, they brought it to me, yet another painful disease patient and woman they trusted implicitly.

Then they took it to Washington, D.C. to tell Congress they knew what they were doing.

To tell them to stop.

To tell them enough is enough.

How many more have to die to end the hellish agony their lives had become?! And all for… a study? To save money? Because extremely rich people were greedy and believed a lie?

Imagine two small women walking into Congress and saying what I just told you… right now.

That is what they did.

Because to do what they did… takes courage the likes of which there just isn’t very much of these days.

With courage and determination, they took their research and saw through their task to their goal.

The United States of America owes them a deep and enormous debt of gratitude.
