Quackery!
Glory be! Trying to get pain relief out of the GP is like trying to ask a global conglomerate to pay tax! You'd think I'd asked them to personally fund my medication!
"You've already got a lot of controlled drugs on your repeat prescription".
No shit Sherlock! I've only had a life-limiting disability for the past 39 years that causes me fracture pain from time to time. So obviously I've no notion of how to accurately manage my condition to the best of my knowledge and life experience.
Honestly, they think you're a bloody Victorian opiate fiend!
Now hand over the fucking morphine before I set the hounds on you woman!
