National Pain Care Policy Act of 2007: Tackling Barriers to Pain Management
On behalf of more than 76 million Americans suffering from pain, please support passage of the National Pain Care Policy Act of 2007 (S./H.R.)
Most painful conditions can be relieved with proper treatment, yet many people in pain and their healthcare providers often face a range of barriers that can prevent proper pain management. The National Pain Care Policy Act of 2007 helps address these barriers by improving coordination of pain research, healthcare practitioner education & training, and public awareness.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Read the last paragraph.
Your welcome! I saw that and was so happy that FINALLY there might be some hope for us!!!!! Please pass it along to ANYONE you know who can sign it. Think of it... if there are "more than 76 MILLION Americans suffering from pain"... and they sign this, along with say, 2 of their loved ones or friends... the result would be positively ASTOUNDING!!!!!! :) :)
I certainly hoped for a better response to this posting. Doesn't anyone care??????
We complain mornin', noon, and night that no one's helping us... but HERE, with this Act, people are indeed trying to improve things for us.
It would be a damned serious shame if it didn't go through for lack of support!!!
Thank you so much for trying! It's greatly appreciated! :)
