Went to pick up my Moms meds..DEA Agents Showed up NW NJ

Morris County NJ-12pm As everyone is trying to prepare for a major holiday..I’ve never seen my Cvs Pharmacy so busy. As myself and about eight others wait to pick up our prescriptions..two individuals walk to the front of everybody and present the pharmacist with a document with the department of justice seal on top. The document was demand for an immediate inspection.

To my surprise the pharmacist a young and bold individual told them they could wait until all of those customers who are waiting online were taken care of . They agreed and the pharmacist proceeded to get us all out of there as fast she could.

As i waited, I acknowledged the two individuals (a man and a woman )and asked if they were from the DEA? The man Initially attempted to act as if he didn’t hear my question and attempted to avoid making eye contact with me. I asked again and he ever so slightly nodded yes as to not engage in conversation.

I said to him you know it really is a terrible thing that’s happening as far as the opioid crisis. It’s good that someone is doing something but you should also consider that these people are just doing their jobs and there are actually people who need pain medication to live productive lives. I hope you will keep that in mind as you continue to do your work.

The woman kind of laughed and the man gave me another slight nod. I then responded by saying, “ you may think that’s funny but you have the people behind the counter scared to death and good people are suffering because of it I don’t think that’s very funny. “

The pharmacist who knows me.. called me over to finish up my business as she saw I was steamed..

The thread the other day was no joke . The opioid crisis is causing unforeseen and major consequences to law abiding citizens. The system needs to be fixed and I’m not sure how .

On one hand I’ve seen at least eight or nine people in the past five years die from Opioid overdose.. The crisis is real, very real. But that doesn’t mean people who require controlled substances should be forced to live a more difficult life because of it.

Sorry I’ve gone on a rant here but the arrogance and lack of care by these DEA representatives made my blood boil. This pharmacy is pretty big and I’ve known these people for sometime they run a clean operation. It’s not a pill mail or small back alley pharmacy. I feel for those affected by This crisis.

I hope everyone has a great Easter God bless

I encourage anyone who suffers with pain, chronic pain, to look in to kratom leaf. It has helped so many of us who do not want to be in the opiate prison but who live with pain every day.

Didn’t they classify Kratom recently?

No. Scott Gottleib rattles his sabre every once in awhile, but has left the legality to the states. Kratom is legal in most states, some states have an over 18 or over 21 restriction on it. A few states ban it. Those are the really backwards ones.

I have debilitating fibro,cfs,degenerative disc disease, scolosis, been in serious pain, often horrific pain, for the last two decades....only got pain meds about two years of that time...I've spent years of my life in bed...while raising kids..by myself..no family or friends helped me. My adult sons had the same as myself ten years now, another has r.a. we get zero pain meds, zero disability benefits....yet if I was rich, famous, I would get whatever pills I wanted...and of I was an addict, i would get sympathy, and methadone....which ironically enough, kills pain. I no longer have funds to pay a self pay pain clinic, and I've been on a waiting list years in alabama with medicaid, to see a pain doc!!! It's pure insanity! It's barbaric!
