I have 2 boys with Sickle Cell Disease.  I support regulations to control the abuse of opiods but not at the expense of Sickle Cell patients.  Some, not all require available medication that goes beyond the current allowable limits to support there pain management at home or after a hospitalization.  There pain management is suffering with the limits proposed and will in effect cause more ER visits which could have been avoided.  

Please make Sickle Cell Disease an exception to the opiod guidelines.  I thank you and my children that you.
