The Society for Neuroscience estimates that 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain. The consequences of this are enumerated: needless suffering, broken marriages, family violence, alcoholism, absenteeism & job loss, depression, & even suicide. Untreated pain costs more than $100 billion in medical expenses, according to the American Pain Society. Results of a 1999 survey indicate that only 25% of pain patients are adequately treated. It is argued that the primary reason for this is the government decision to prosecute pain doctors for overprescribing prescription narcotics. Physicians present an easier target in the war on drugs than do black market drug dealers. They provide easy evidence in the records they keep, of which they file copies as instructed. It's much harder to go after criminals. This should be recognized as the persecution it is. The authorities should leave doctors alone to act in the best interest of their patients. References. J.
