Families in Action: November 30, 2015
On today’s show Cary and Michael talk pain management with Pam Geyer from the Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital to talk about opioids and medication usage for pain. California has developed into a state that is #1 and #2 in oxycodone and hydrocodone use, but Pam asks listeners, “do you think we in California feel more pain than other states?”
There are better opportunities for chronic pain management than using opioids.
