"PAIN Making" written by Derek Morrison


‘THE ONGOING ADDITION OF DOCTORS’.

Today, here in Australia and around the world patients are being not only harmed but disabled due to the continued use of ‘off-label’ Injectable chemicals into the cerebrospinal fluid of the spine without Regulatory Approval. Epidural steroid injections for instance are a classic example of this today through such being used on ill-informed or non-informed unsuspecting patients and in some case directly ‘ordered by Insurance Companies’ to “hopefully” improve their moveability and able them to return to the workforce. Those that carry out these procedures have ‘also’ been ‘mixing’ two or more of these ‘off label’ toxic chemicals together, and injecting them Intrathecally into the patients without any awareness such was safe or had Regulatory Approval.

The question is ‘why’ have they been allowed to do so for decades without being challenged, “is such safe”??? The answer to this, is when such injections started way back in the early 1920’s in fact 1921 there were NO regulatory requirements Governments placed the trust and expertise in the hands of the Medical Profession without any checks and balances in place. In fact, the first injectable toxic chemical used as a dye in x-rays soon led to Chemically Induced Adhesive Arachnoiditis within the subarachnoid space, [spine] and due to such was stopped not by the Government but by the end-users themselves, the Doctors injecting such into the patients. This was due not so much for the welfare of the patients, but for ‘self protection’ legally.

The American FDA being the World Regulatory of new drugs had in place by the early 1900s a set regulatory requirements known as a New Drug Application [NDA] for Companies wishing to submit a new drug for Marketing. What was NOT in place was a set regulatory requirements for Companies wishing to submit an application for a General Marketing License for diagnostic radiographic x-ray toxic contrast mediums. [Dye] for until then end-users were using ‘Air’ in such procedures. [“Air is cheap”]

A specific regulatory requirement on x-ray contrast mediums [dyes] never arrived until 1969 almost half a century later, due to the thalidomide issue, by this time the medical profession had injected this “dye” injuring close to 60 million patients throughout the world 20 million of these in the US and tens of thousands here in Australia without any knowledge of doing so. Why was this? Well those carrying out these injections were not ‘linked’ to the patent’s GP, Specialists and such like, furthermore, the development of chemically induced adhesive arachnoiditis is insidious. The slow damage to peripheral nerve roots and the related man-made disability for many [but not all] develops over time and a relationship to the cause, a past injection of what was deemed to be safe, was never considered.

Today, here in Australia and around the world the practice of ‘off-label’ use continues without any Governmental oversight or Regulatory approval of such practice in place. I believe not only these end-users need to be held accountable BUT also the Government Regulators, of each of the 107 Counties where it was used, sadly many of those once employed by these Government Regulators throughout the world are NOW working for the the Manufacturer’s or subsidiaries.

My Blog explains how many Australians today have been harmed by this unregulated x-ray dye and ‘other’ such injectable substances into the CSF of the spine [and elsewhere]. 

The first contrast medium causing horrendous pain and disability was lipiodol an x-ray oil based dye (1921-1946) then came Iophendylate Pantopaque or Myodil another oil base x-ray dye [1936 – 1996] causing chemically induced adhesive arachnoiditis.

Also, my research and that of others show that even the newer water base x-ray dyes cause chemically induced adhesive arachnoiditis and the related horrendous pain and disability.
It's clear today, what has happened and its cause, it's now up to you the reader to understand how this was allowed to happen.

PLEASE FORWARD TO OTHERS ESPECIALLY THE MEDIA.

I'm still alive but I had a bad run

I'm still alive but I had a bad run haven't I?  Ever since missing my birthday outing back in April.  I would add relapse upon relapse whenever I went out starting with masked people in doctors' waiting rooms.  I cancelled so many important appointments even after re-scheduling twice so I still don't have any advice about zinc, copper and pyrrole disorder or if I have the HLA gene because Bli Bli clinic will not allow results over the phone, not even an "action" clause.  He does not even work there but seems to use their reception people this Dr Osbourne does.  I had better make an appointment now that I am well enough to go.  I had to cancel dental appointments even though I lost another tooth during this time and my denture needs to be replaced or fixed so I cannot have a nice smile yet.  I will have to go on a denture waiting list after tomorrow's socket check (and fillings) because I had a major dry socket and lots of tooth shards painfully emerged from there over these months.  I think it has all stopped now so I am ready for my smile.

I have so many photos to post anyway because there have been changes to the yard around here and it all looks different and since my energy levels have picked up, I've been getting out of the house if only to go to doctors appointments and taking photos on the way home.  I have to catch up on so much housework and yard work.

The strangest thing that happened was the switch that flipped a couple of weeks ago inside of me that made an instant change from constant faecal loading and gastroparesis and associated bowel obstruction attacks and fluid diets; to sudden onset anxiety and its associated intestinal hurry.  So I went from fighting constipation to being a mental basket case.  I always used to say when I was young that worry kept me thin because it kept me moving in more ways than one.  Well I'm moving again, that was until I was put on Olanzapine for the agitated depression symptoms.  Dopey and well now but with more pain because I am moving my body so much more relatively speaking.  I will add some photos later.
