If you're in pain, don't bother. I have severe spine disabilities, including a break in there. I'm in severe, SEVERE pain. I have been begging the doctors for years to help with my pain, but they fob me off and just tell me to lose weight. My neurosurgeons, physio, consultants etc ALL state I should have pain relief for bad pain days, and have even stated this to my GP due to the severity of my conditions. Everyone I know with chronic pain, even some who attend this surgery get pain relief, however I get told, and I quote "join a gym, go for long walks, have physio and lose weight" whilst Im sat in a wheelchair unable to walk and in severe pain. Along with "we dont prescribe painkillers". Very neglectful. They wouldnt put up with this pain, so why leave me like this?

Listen to your patients. Listen to consultants and physio. Have some compassion and understanding
