Honestly never thought I'd add the word "poop condom" to my vocab. Thank you sir.

Physician here. A common sentiment in the medical community is that increased emphasis on pain as a 'fifth vital sign' and tying patient satisfaction to physician reimbursement has driven many physicians to overprescribe narcotics.

How have pharmaceutical companies tried to influence the policies of medical associations in order to promote their pain medications?

Many of my fellow physicians use urine drug screens as part of pain contracts with patients receiving opioid narcotics. They will refuse to prescribe narcotic medications if patients test positive for any illegal drugs, marijuana included. I've always found this odd because they rarely screen for alcohol use, nor do they refuse narcotics to patients who use alcohol.

My question is, what are the effects of marijuana on opioids from a patient safety perspective? Does marijuana interfere with the metabolism of opioids?

I remember learning about this in medical school. It's one of those diseases you assume you'll never see in real life.

Does the disease affect primarily the cartilage in your trachea or does it affect all cartilage equally? Will you be able to have the trach removed or is this likely permanent?

Thanks for answering my questions! I hope you do well!

Actual medical doctor here.

A huge red flag is that you are parading your NASA credentials in an attempt to give yourself legitimacy.

Are you an actual healthcare professional? Do you understand how weight loss works? Is this device safe?

All important questions which you are not qualified to answer. You're treading on thin legal territory here.
