With all due respect I think you missed the boat. The DEA is making it's own rules as it goes along with or without congresional approval. As a concrete example just look at SWMG. The DEA gives less than a sh!t about records or not. People using no record shops are no different in the eyes of the DEA than a record shop. They are going to start with the soft targets (no record op's) and now they have already started bustin SWMG.
I hate to sound negative, but now is the time to do whatever it takes to go out and find a good doctor and forget about relying on OP's anymore (it is sad but true). I am a legitamite, massive stack of records, chronic pain patient, but even with everything that has been documented I still had to resort to OP's because most MD's are scared to death to due what they been trained to do, which is keep people out of pain and feeling emotionaly, and physically healthy. I don't use OP's to get high, he11, if I wanted to do that I would go out get an 1/4oz and listen to some Bob Marley. I find it highly ironic that there are boat loads of coke comming into our shores via panama, columbia, equador etc and by "mexican mules" and DEA agents are trained to handle this needed enforcement. But hey, when it comes down to it, why not hit soft targets like (brick/morter & op docs) for trying to help society out? Everyone should know why, they need that media coverage to show they are winning the drug war by putting fear into every doctor in this country and leaving many like myself in agonizing pain.
This is really getting off topic but, your average doctor (with no specialties) has devoted at least 10 years of thier lives to the study of medicine and the human body YET, some well trained guys with mp-5's, kevlar helments, and survailence equipment are the ones dictating HOW MEDICINE IS TO BE PRESCRIBED?????????????
Ok back on subject, to the DEA, let me enlighten you, they are going to start out with the soft sites and then, with their infininte wisdom, they will claim that unless a doctor actually bends you over a table, sticks his finger up your buttox, then there was never a "TRUE DOCTOR PATIENT RELATIONSHIP),, thats when reputable sites like NWW and YOD will fall, but for the next few weeks they are very busy weeding out soft targets.

My advice, get you records together and talk to your friends, family, and a real good source is pharmacists(only ones you really trust) and find out which brick and mortor MD's have not been scared into believing that the only thing they can script out is the latest/greatest (most expensive) NSAID. There are still doctors out there that care for their patients, sometimes they can be hard and expensive to find, but write it down, IN 179 days FROM TODAY, THERE WILL NOT BE ONE OP IN EXISTENCE (I really hope this statement is never comes true, but unfortunaly it will). The only way we can expect to ever get OP's back is if congress amends this HR 3880,, so the burden is on us to contact our lawmakers and get let them know THE BENIFITS OF LIVING A HEALTHY LIFE becuase all they here are these totatly insane stories about oxycontin, kids overdosing and foriegn pharms. ok,, im p1sssed, ill shut up.
