The US Centers for Desease Control (CDC) wants to hear about your pain journey and the need to improve pain management.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are currently soliciting written comments on pain and pain management, including those relevant to the benefits and harms of opioid use, to help inform the agency’s understanding of the subject.

Stakeholders encompass patients with acute or chronic pain, patients’ family members and/or caregivers, and health care providers who care for patients with pain or conditions that can complicate pain management such as opioid use disorder or overdose.
