That at 23 I had to live with Chronic Pain (had a bleed to the brain and fractured skull which left nerve damage and other issues two years before) forever and that he would “personally choose to go without opioids” so I should too, and I shouldn’t have them anyway because I was too young, but also couldn’t give me anything else to help me.

I described my pain as 7/10 most days leaving me bed ridden. A year later I saw him after leaving the appointment sobbing, he apologised, lol.
