Invest more time in finding a local drug dealer then trying to swindle your doctor - oopsz is correct, you're 15, there is no chance in hell you're going to get Vicodin or any other narcotic ... unless you have some physical problems that show up on some form of film (visually, X-ray, or MRI) then you wont get ANYTHING!
See, you can complain of back-pain, so the doctor will say "where exactly does it hurt" .. you will piont to your lower back and the doctor will start to think you're scamming... you will be asked questions about your legs, he will ask you to stand on your tip-toes, he may have you push down on his hands with your feet, or push up as he tries to push your feet down... because you don't know EXACTLY how to respond to these 'tests', you will QUICKLY be discounted ... even if you were able to lead him to believe you have legit back problems, an X-ray would show it's nothing wrong with your vertabre... an MRI would show it's nothing wrong with any of your disc's ..
I am all hopped up on goofballs so we will still play this game... lets say that you flat our cry like a little girl in his office.... say that despite having no bone or disc problems, your doctor believes you have back-pain ... well, you might get some medication... the first thing would be an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflamatory drug) - basically prescription strength Aleve... lets continue to hop down lollipop lane and imagine you convince him that doesn't work - you might get a muscle-relaxer - and a weak one, the type little baby girls get ... lets say your doctor thinks you have a nice cock and believe that you have pain and neither of the above have worked, well, you might get Elivil - a horrible tricyclic anti-d that helps nerve pain ... it's a year later later, and you have been through 7 or 8 drugs - STILL HAVING PAIN? Shit, it's time for physical therapy... 6 months later you MIGHT get into NON-NARCOTIC PAIN KILLERS, things that are 100% DEVOID OF VALUE!
Did you say Vicodin? You might be able to score by your 18th birthday, and I wouldn't imagine you would get more then 10 of the 5mg pills in any given month..
The story about a sore throat is equally insane, as they only give hydrocodone syrups for people with legit coughing problems - ie you can fake back pain, but you can't fake a nasty upper-respiratory infection with a painfull cough.. you MIGHT be able to get codeine cough syrup next time you have the flu, just cry when you cough and say "it's really that bad" ..
[EDIT - I know some people will relate stories of good luck getting various *tuss syrups by complaining of a cough, but this is the EXTREME MINORITY, and at the MOST you will get enough for a few days.. if you're 15 you can write this one off]
Sorry man, you're 15, you wont get anything until you get your wisdom teeth removed, or have some surgery - if you get lucky your apendix will rupture in the near future...
