Well, I just read abc15 article about Gov.Ducey's 'open AZ presentation' where he was questioned as to why his data did not match at AZDHS website and ABC15 was told that the data we see on AZDHS is incorrect. WHAT!! I've been looking at daily and rely on this info and makes me not trust anything being released about this data or Gov.Ducey's data. Makes me mad if someone knows the data is incorrect then why not shut the site down until it is correct. The site layout is great with charts so easy to read but if data is incorrect then honestly the site is worthless!!
This is still a huge issue!! I too suffer from chronic pain due to a severe spinal injury that is well documented and Yes, everyone is different and therefore this opioid dispensing should have been evaluated on a case by case basis in order to weed out the abusers instead of allowing patients who TRULY suffer from chronic pain the inability to get their medication. I moved here from a different state and have to fly to GA every 3 months just to get my prescriptions. I have my AZ doctor working with my GA doctor in order to help monitor and control my pain levels. Buying a plane ticket every 3 months is expensive and the travel is so painful that it puts me in the bed for a week afterwards. I am going on 20yrs of disability, worked as an executive in the healthcare industry before I was injured, and have two bachelor degrees so I'm not an idiot, nor an abuser, so it angers me when I hear people say that chronic pain patients can get out of pain with exercise and dietary changes. I think a waiver program should be initiated that would allow patients who have passed an in depth screening of medical history and have a legitimate need the ability to have their doctor prescribe over the max opioid limits.
