I have posts up here about my experiences with issues I am having including being humiliated at pharmacies and being followed out of shopping centres by security guards. I also have frequent police vehicle sightings as I return home from longer outings and this happens mainly when I am on a prescribed long-term pain killer patch called norspan. I have been on and off this for years and fighting addiction. When I wasn't on it for a time I was resorting to poppy seed tea which was not ideal.
I now think the police and security guard thing is a real thing and I stand by it. I just had a weird phone call with the original large medical practice I met this doctor at when I had a bad injury a few years ago which led me down this path.
I just phoned the large medical practice where I originally saw my regular doctor (he left there some time back) to ask if they bulk bill still and was told only a locum who is there for a few weeks does and the rest bill. I asked if I could see this locum to get a pain review as I needed one done and she became curt and said no and that a doctor who left there a while back has a lot of patients on pain medication and none of the doctors there will help with this pain review thing that is now needed and all that will be done is a referral to the public pain clinic. I have been to this public pain clinic years ago when I did the injury and I know they are against opioid pain killers and try to get patients off them and offer courses and appointments.
So now I am freaking out as I don't know what to do. I know I won't cope without the norspan as I was using poppy seed tea before when I went without. I am wondering if I should find an addiction treatment centre and look into treatment that way.
I also do wonder if either patients of this doctor are being watched and kind of scared or something is going on. I KNOW I'm not delusional and it's really happening especially given the phone call I just had with the woman at the medical practice I just had.
