Millions of Canadians and Americans are chronic pain (agony) patients. A disturbing story from Georgia about Danny and Gretchen Elliott.

Reason: Danny, because of the electrocution suffered from constant chronic agony which was controlled somewhat by long prescribed opioid pain medication. This medication was denied after the U.S. DEA forced his pain physician out of practice. Danny could find no other doctor to provide the pain meds he needed to somewhat ease his agony. He and his wife shot themselves.

Guest: Dr/Professor Stefan Kertesz. Primary care physician who specializes in addiction medicine.
