Hello again i have been lurking for the last couple of years, but what is happening to some of you in America is criminal.

In the UK we have the national health system i am under a pain consultant and have a very good GP.
I use the dugestic patch, take tramadol for break through pain and pre-pentin for knocking out nerve pain. and other stuff for kidney problems because i have knackered the nerves that control the bladder. We don't have to pay for our medication or any treatment and i never have a moment of hassle because i gasp take heavy opiate drugs there is no stupid crap about what the heck a doctor can give a patent here and i once thought i hated the NHS but i will never want to change, I feel so annoyed that people have to put up with more pain just because of stupid rules your doctors have to follow or get into trouble unbleavable it just makes me feel sick just thinking about this!

I used to have great trouble from my parents as well about taking my drugs and all the crud about getting addicted. Dam right i know i am addicted to my pills but without them i just can not function so if anyone ever starts telling you to give up the drugs you need to function they DO NOT understand what you problems are. The only person i will listen to is my consultant they know what they are talking about. So i hope everyone is having a low pain day and don't give up.
