I interviewed Alecia previously for <a href=\"https:\/\/disabilityvisibilityproject.com\/2017\/12\/16\/ep-14-emergency-preparedness\/\">episode 14 on emergency preparedness<\/a> and the conversation continued about her experiences getting prescription medications and accessing healthcare as a person with sickle cell anemia. You\u2019re going to hear about about that in this episode. In the second half, Sarah shares some of the major misconceptions about living with pain and recent efforts by pharmacies and the government to limit prescription painkillers. Both Alecia and Sarah describe the stigma and shame that pain patients face and the numerous hurdles they encounter when seeking pain treatment.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Transcript<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1gu9XgNYQ5u8hXtgIaVT_0Ov0252ixxwXHWrsjY4WIjs\/edit?usp=sharing\"><strong>[Google doc]<\/strong><\/a> \u00a0 \u00a0 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/disabilityvisibilityproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Chronic-Pain.pdf\">[PDF]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Related Links<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Blahovec, Sarah.
