"Pain Killers death rate goes down..."???
Too hilarious! And TOTALLY irrelevant!
Of course the death rate EVENTUALLY flattens out and maybe goes down! Not EVERYONE is prone to drug abuse and those that are eventually wise up on how to abuse it PROPERLY. And, although many so-called "authorities" would have you believe otherwise, simple use an opioid for REAL pain is NOT addicting. The rise in deaths was due to idiots who thought they had found a new "joy toy" that was easier to get than heroin and other drugs. When they realize it's not as "safe" as they thought, they adjust their "habits" accordingly.
In the meantime, while some are patting themselves on the back for making opioids more difficult to get, the death rate from "synthetic marijuana" and "homecooked" drugs continues to spiral -- not to mention whatever other complications might arise from their use.
As far as calmare, what use is it in dealing with addictive personalities? Not to mention the total lack of "social benefits" since since it won't get you stoned!
And this new clinic? He's ALREADY put himself out of business by simply including this line in his ad:
"Our mission is to provide compassionate and effective pain management by offering completely non-narcotic (no drugs)..."
By ruling out narcotics, he's effectively telling a patient that he's limiting the spectrum of his treatment options. Anyone is bound to wonder, well, if his fancy machine doesn't work, what will he do then? Will the patient have to go off to yet ANOTHER doctor?
