"Learn to live with a little pain in your life" is the new mantra as chronic pain patients are unfairly lumped in with the drug seekers in the opioid crisis. I've even seen one article written by a medical professional arguing that patients recovering from surgery don't even need them and shouldn't get them because Americans are just too soft and expect that they should never feel pain! These people need to find new jobs.
