I am surprised that you don't get pain relief on free prescription (over 60 as you are).
Several years ago I was on 8 distalgesics a day.(free)
They removed them from the prescribed list after they were used by Dr Kelly to suicide (allegedly).
They were replaced by a codiene/paracetemol combination (free)
When I got addicted to codiene and told doc I wanted paracetemol only he supplied it free without question.
I eventually stopped using that too.
Whatever I was on, I got a months supply at a time to accommodate the max daily dose.
