So once again I have another appointment at the doctors due to being in constant pain. Codeine does not seem to work. Does anyone have any suggestions for any other pain killers that have worked for them?

Thanks

I can only take tramadol (which I hate but it does do the job), some days need higher dose than others and some days none at all. Hope you find something that suits. Oh I take a powder laxative everyday as well for constipation cos codiene and tramadol both can cause you to be bunged up which totally doesn’t help x

I use Diclofenac suppositories, they are brilliant and work quite quickly too. Good luck.
