Default Fascinating Read - Howard Hughes and Pseudoaddiction
Dr. Forest Tennant is no stranger to many chronic/intractable pain patients. I happened to be doing some rsearch this morning when I came across this article he wrote in 2007 about Howard Hughes:

That was interesting....thanks for passing it along Dr Smith

Danger, danger Will Robinson
(sorry, I couldn't resist !)

If only more doctors would listen to Dr Tennant's advice to be more liberal with the long acting opiods to help control intractable pain.

Well, at least you get the joke!

One of the main reasons I chose the handle was to make humorous, but apt, use of the sig line in the various chronic pain venues I participate in. Oddly, it's fit in to other areas as well.
