I get you now; the rage and vitriol you bring here are expressions of chronic pain. I wish you strength and comfort too.  Heaven knows most of us wouldn't be able to muster much of either in your circumstances.

But here you're killing the messenger; you've been victimized by Big Pharma, not Nicholas Kristof. Big Pharma solved the problem of human pain, as far as they're concerned, when they figured out how make money from it.
