Make it a thing! Put in your zip code and find a place near you, to remove both temptation and familiarity that breeds contemptuous fentanyl overdose. Thanks @MarkHalperin for using your powers for good!
10/28 is the DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. This Ted Talk by my pal Dr. Amy Baxter explains why oral opioids are both a deadly temptation, and not “the good stuff” for pain. https://t.co/gBxKfZjKYZ

A long time friend told me she faints with #needles and never thought to bring her Buzzy for #phlebotomy. Silly!

I use it for my right “swimmers elbow” and left upper IT BAND issues. if that’s not a self- #HIPAA violation
A Buzzy for joints?! It's called @VibraCool. If 30 sec works for needle pain, imagine what 20 mins could do for knees, elbows, or foot pain. Same technology. More effective than TENS. Helps with post-surgical rehab, physical therapy, athletic training, and more.

If we were exposed we irrigated. If we feel symptoms, we irrigate QID. No deaths, no hospitalization, no cases at all until omicron, and anxiety enormously less.
