yeah, for the not medically trained the translation of "*High pitched* OK" is something like "they f**king kidding me here!?!?! I'm rushed off my feet and I need to help this poor guy out with something as simple as a prescription because they can't properly manage his pain after major surgery"
The doctor who did that is a complete idiot. That's the kind of knowledge you have as a pharmacy assistant. And in pharmacies you get a lot of people who come in in agony for this reason. Their stupid doctor or dentist etc. Has diagnosed them with a problem, charged them a tonne of money, and failed to even give them any pain-killer script. The pharmacist would then have to ring the doctor/ dentist/ specialist and make them fax one. Which would often take hours. And in the meanwhile we would have a customer who was agitated and in agony who we could not help.
@@TheTardisDreamer I guess I’m just lucky that no one I know has been in that situation. Always been able to get appropriate analgesia on the day, sometimes within hours depending how busy the GP or consultant is.
Yeah, chronic pain is a right... errr... pain. Mine started bad on New Year’s Eve 1984 when I was getting ready to go out to celebrate. Never even drank a drop... just fell down the stairs in my digs and dislocated my hip. 3 days later they operated because it wouldn’t stay in. Pain ever since (and another 3 ops).

It is actually very complicated to determine the line between enabling drug seeking behaviours and seeming like the unhelpful doctor. Unfortunately, you run the very real risk of contributing to the death of a patient when you provide opioid medications to an addict... many addicts can appear normal in a consult or might get medication off someone else who you have a script to. Knowing that you have played a role in the death of a patient who overdosed is incredibly difficult to deal with obviously in a professional sense but also in a deeply personal sense (I have seen this first hand). The correct thing to do is to take a conservative stance in prescribing pain relief, but you must always acknowledge the patient’s experience and use your best clinical judgement in determining the right option for them. It’s not an easy call. Sometimes opioids are needed but it’s irresponsible to send patients off with a script for that kind of pain relief unless it is genuinely warranted. Also I might add that a lot of the time patients can become accidentally addicted to these medications, so it is common to experience a significant level of pain when weaning off of strong analgesic medications (not necessarily saying that’s the case here though).
That poor guy should never have been discharged so early. He should have been able to have hospital care for much longer than he did. I can fully sympathize as I've had lung surgery in the past.
Now days doctors just trying to get rid of people so quick. Like everytime I had pains in my chest or it felt like i couldnt breath and I had a allergic reaction to something all they said is your healthy and basically leave and its like my body wouldnt be acting weird if there wasnt something wrong with me.
The hospital wants you out of the hospital the next day no matter what. I had major low back surgery with screws and rods fusing my entire low back and both Si joints and the next day the PT people came and picked me up to take me to PT and wanted me up and walking and getting out of bed by myself I absolutely could not do it. I was still discharged that day later on and got home without anyone being told how to get me to a bathroom when I could not walk or a bedside commode. About 2AM I could not stay home any longer the 15mg of oxycodone was not helping my pain and I could not walk to a bathroom. I still only got one additional day in the hospital and a bedside commode to be transferred to from my bed.
My friend had one of these operations, the fundraiser for it was one of the saddest events i’ve ever been to, no one knew if he’d be okay. And you know what? He pulled through. Tallest dude I know today!
It makes me feel sad to see his ribcage deformity ... I had a school mate who had the same condition, I myself have a deformity of the spine (scoliosis) which makes one side of the ribcage lopsidedly protruding while the other side is caved in .. Beyond the physical discomfort and pain, there is also a deep feeling of low self esteem which stops some of sufferers from taking part in normal activities that requires taking off of shirt or wearing tight fitting shirts due to shame of the body...
I've got it and everyone else in my house at university had it as well. 3 boys. You are not alone if you have this, and working on chest in the gym does wonders
Totally understand the continuous excruciating pain and the stressing associated with it. Most people don’t understand that when you hurt your whole life is spent trying to ease the pain. Nothing else matters. Prayers for your pain relief and healing.

I’ve had this lung surgery in 2018. Got discharged early, had similar symptoms after. The doctors that discharged me got their medical license suspended and paid a hearty fine of $80,000 of being prescribed medication that wasn’t supposed to be taken during recovery but before surgery it almost killed me. Had internal bleeding.

After 3 and half years since an onset of debilitating symptoms and non stop abdominal pain and discomfort it’s nice to see a positive story. But from what I’ve experienced a lot of doctors have very basic knowledge or are pig ignorant to complex chronic conditions. I’ve gone from a practical athlete to living on my sofa.
I’m sorry! This is my story too. It’s been a decade for me. I finally have a team of good doctors who work with me and I’m slowly getting some of my life back. Hang in there. There’s hope. I will likely never run again but I got to work in the garden yesterday and that was a big deal. Celebrate your little wins
My brother had this procedure done, they definitely had transition pain meds for over a week! It is a horribly painful surgery as it cracks a lot of your ribs😬
Damn I had the exact same procedure, and they also dropped the morphine immediately and gave me paracetamol. The pain was so bad i could not describe with words how much it hurt . In my case the metal bar actually detached and they had to correct it again, after which i got an infection as well. I feel for this guy
That dr was very understanding, could see hes in a lot of pain, paracetamol wasnt the best, when u are in pain 24/7 is unbearable, especially when u cant see the injury.
The fact they gave him morphine and no in between is wild. That’s gonna lead to so much pain because you basically go from no pain, to over the counter bare minimum pain killers that are meant for like headaches
I came to this video actually searching for a similar condition, but my pain at least is not constant. I have something called costochondritis which is a chronic chest wall inflammation. There IS no surgery for it, just have to let it run its course and heal itself. I'm at least fortunate that I have a relatively mild case all things considered.
I had constant chest pains I thought I was having a heart attack then I went to my doctor and she told me my cholesterol was Sky High I was put on medication and my chest pain stop I also suffer from chronic pain I know the what pain like that feels like it's horrible
I feel for him. Constant pain is draining and exhausting. When I got ill I just assumed that they would be able to stop pain but the only hope is morphine but that makes you drowsy 😩
You couldn’t take another opiate? Everyone is different and different types will effect you differently. I have chronic nerve pain after a lesion on my spinal cord (I have multiple sclerosis) and morphine makes me feel groggy and drugged to be frank. I hate it but hydrocodone relieves a lot of the pain, not all but enough, and I feel as though I just took a Tylenol that actually worked if that makes sense. No drugged up groggy feeling. Sincerely hope you’ve been able to manage something that works for you in the year since you posted. No one who hasn’t experienced it could truly understand how draining it is both physically and emotionally. Truly wish you the best❤
@@angiebear8727 I currently take tramadol and ibuprofen. When I'm in a lot of pain I take tramadol then 2.5 hours later cocodamol but that's only if I'm desperate. It's a constant juggling act of trying to be as pain free as possible but still being able to function to work. Take care xx
@@pixiepie3774 had to look up what co codomal is. I’m assuming you’re not in the Us because this is the first time I’ve heard of it. Glad you’ve found a good balance.
Never forget waking up after having an organ removed and being told I can have 1 paracetamol. Literally a single paracetamol tablet. I just lay there like “doc I take more than that for a headache!” I always sneak my own medication into hospital now ...
Same here! I always take a supply of my normal painkillers & medication onto hospital & keep them in my handbag. I am very ill with several conditions & am on about 30 different medications including blood thinners, daily antibiotics, a very high dose of morphine & co-codamol (paracetamol & codeine), pregabalin, medication for my seizures, blood pressure medications & loads of others. Several times I have been left waiting in serious pain or being sick for HOURS waiting for the nurses to bring my meds. I have had Renal Sepsis twice & nearly died & one nurse decided that rather than give me my intravenous antibiotics & fluids before she went on her break, she couldn't be bothered. Then once she was back she had forgotten & I was so ill anyway & starting to feel worse because I was now becoming dehydrated & my blood pressure started dropping lower & lower. It wasn't until just before the nursing shift was about to change that the nurse bothered to check on me & by that stage I was really dehydrated (I was nil by mouth & unable to keep any fluids down anyway so it wasn't like I could just drink water) & this nurse started panicking because she hadn't given me my medication & my blood pressure was really low & she was running around trying to get me all of the medication & fluids before the doctors came round when the new shift started. I've had several experiences like that & it's just horrible. One nurse was deliberately withholding my pain medication- the medication the doctor had prescribed for me! as "she didn't think I needed it" it was in the middle of the night & I was literally crying with pain. I managed to finally speak to another nurse who was so angry on my behalf that I heard her having a shouting match with the horrible nurse who had refused my medication & I didn't see that horrible nurse again & someone came to see me the next day to speak to me about it so I gathered she waz in serious trouble over it. I've had some fantastic care over the years & I really am so glad that we have the NHS in the UK as they do so much wonderful work, but it is the bad NHS workers who seem to ruin it for the rest. I also hate it with GP's where you get another doctor who isn't your GP interfering for no reason & changing or stopping medication when they have no knowledge of your case history & are nothing to do with your care.
I was taken to the hospital last week with Acute Pancreatitis, and it felt like my Pancreas and Kidney (I only have 1) were exploding, and they left me in the waiting room for 25 hours, all while I was passing out from the pain the whole time. Not only that, but they didn't even give me fluids until the 3rd day, and because I was passed out most of the time, I didn't drink, and was only peeing once a day. Because I only have 1 Kidney, that could have been extremely, EXTREMELY dangerous very quickly.
I am suffering from chest pain since 2017 I went to different doctors different hospitals. They say everything if fine now I don't know what to do am in pain everyday but I feel sorry for this poor guy
I'm not saying 100% this is the case for you but I had incredible chest pain and I saw several doctors for it and they all told me that nothing was wrong as well. I found out after going to at least 5 doctors that it was stress and anxiety causing the pain. I didn't think it could manifest so strongly as pain like that but I was given medicine for anxiety and the chest pain stopped shortly thereafter.
I had knee surgery and they sent me home with oxycodone. I didn't like the way it made me feel, so went straight to Tylenol. Doesn't do much for pain, but I didn't want an opioid, and I'm allergic to all non steroid anti inflammatory pain killers.
I've had key hole in my lower abdomen, and although the scares are never seen i think they're so neat to have. Its a story to tell and a part of my life experience that I'll be able to reflect on in the future as they change as I get older. They also solved an issue which is the main thing, respecting what the body can handle! Xxxx
@@rachelelizabeth2483 ye I guess I should be greatful that it has helped my future health, but my chest has almost turned into now a ‘pigeon’ chest where it was coming in now it sticks out so like Idk I need to gain weight on my chest tbf to maybe even it out
Is the surgery really bad. Both my kids have it, but my 2 year old has it more severe. We were told that as a teenager he would definitely need the surgery.
I'm super lucky to have been at UCH and was given oxycodone (120mg per day, high I know! But we kept going up in 5mg increments until pain was controlled). I spent 6 weeks in the ICU with rhabdo and heart failure. I'm now on 65mg of oxycodone 2 years later. When don't have it my life is just pure torture. Thank god this country is understanding the needs of people in pain
Yeah, you can hear the nurses surprise as well as everyone else’s surprise they went from “Here’s some Morphine, now here’s some paracetamol” like…what?? The morphine is only given for a few days because of addictiveness but to jump straight to over the counter paracetamol is not it. Coding can be addictive but you need it! Cause that’s one HELL of a surgery he’s had…man, that’s bonkers.
The fact that he wasn’t sent home with a prescription is beyond ridiculous. Paracetamol shouldn’t be the only analgesic given after any type of surgery, let alone one as painful as this. If I’m being honest, I don’t even think codeine will be a strong enough opiate for his pain, but at least it will help. I recently had my gallbladder removed and was sent home with a script for 10 oxycodone tablets. I was in a lot of pain, but I imagine this type of surgery would be far more painful.
paracetamol is completely useless, especially if you built up some resistance to opioids. You might aswell try to treat pain with cereal or something, except ceral doesn't fuck up your liver
When a pressed the Button (almost the only one) on my iPhone 12 Pro Passific Blue, just after watching the notifications feed screen, this started playing. I had no intention whatsoever to play anything, just as always, Apple phones (or probably any other phone these days) starts playing something cause it’s massive touch screen figured I intentionally pressed some part of it. That must be important to watch for me. I wish him recovery and all those mental vices that put you in place where you understand all the shit that life throws at you and kind of accept is as self-evident, to go away. Let life be good, without mental pressure that “any shit can happen” or something. Let it flow and be great. Amen.
I knew she was going to give him codeine. Being ill with chronic pain wich is horrendous at times, Iv been ill for 12 years. So iv learnt alot about meds n what docs will do. I really felt for this guy. Ridiculous to take away morphean and replace with paracetamol and ibuprofen. So stupid . We pay taxes we are allowed strong meds if needed. Dr.s need to tske a course in understanding chronic pain.
It depends, if he couldn't get an appointment or if it was during the night he can't be expected to be in horrendous pain until his GP is able to see him purely because he wasn't given the correct pain management plan. He'd had major surgery and was struggling to inflate his chest due to the pain so I can't blame him for going to A&E
He’s had a serious operation and he’s in considerable pain plus shortness of breath ! If that’s not something to go to a&e for then I don’t know what is.
@@hannahdyson7129 Why couldn't he have just called the surgeon's office who operated on him and explained? They can't prescribe over the phone in the UK?
Morphine to paracetamol/ibuprofen!? Good ol’ NHS there 🙄. Codeine can be brought over the counter though. Kratom is the safest option, way less addictive.
I’d say this classifies as an emergency. He’s acting chill but it’s meant to be one of the most excruciating surgery’s due to pressure on bones etc. Also, he didn’t know if the pain was meant to be better at that point so they can do X-rays and checks much faster than the route of getting an appointment with a GP.
Pharmacy’s codeine is up to 8/500mg - that’s 8mg of codeine / 500mg of paracetamol per tablet. Drs can prescribe 15/500 or 30/500 per tablet, take 2 of these up to 4 times daily & that’s definitely not a ‘trash’ dosage.
he really isnt, its common to slowly step down from strong painkillers instead of just stopping. the guy is just in a lot of pain because they gave him something thats only really meant for very minor pain
@@NexusC35 That's ridiculous, from Morphine to "paracetamol & ibuprofen".. That's such a stupid drop in pain meds, that poor guy. It's not "withdrawal" sounds like the surgery was not long ago either.
@@cariad81 I know, confused me for a couple seconds before I read it xD. The fact they gave him paracetamol and an anti-inflammatory for severe pain is insane. You only have to watch the woman's response when he said that to realise that it wasnt right

What a nice doctor...made sure someone who's in need gets what they need to be in better condition and everything gets done correctly so her patient is healthy 🥺🤍 the guy suffered a lot man I don't wish that for anyone he's still soo strong I can't explain how much he'd be going thru because I'm having breathing issues since last month and I still don't know the reason and it's actually very draining mentally and physically I'm only having a breathing problem and this guy goes thru constant pain knows that his ribs keep growing inwards displacing his internal organs causing him so much suffering I pray he gets well very soon 🥺 stay strong sir you'll be very very healthy very soon again Ameen 🤍

After 3 and half years since an onset of debilitating symptoms and non stop abdominal pain and discomfort it’s nice to see a positive story. But from what I’ve experienced a lot of doctors have very basic knowledge or are pig ignorant to complex chronic conditions. I’ve gone from a practical athlete to living on my sofa.
I’m sorry! This is my story too. It’s been a decade for me. I finally have a team of good doctors who work with me and I’m slowly getting some of my life back. Hang in there. There’s hope. I will likely never run again but I got to work in the garden yesterday and that was a big deal. Celebrate your little wins
@@Aubz47 sorry I’ve only just seen this reply. I hope you’re recovering. I’m hanging on. Chris UK
My brother had this procedure done, they definitely had transition pain meds for over a week! It is a horribly painful surgery as it cracks a lot of your ribs😬
Damn I had the exact same procedure, and they also dropped the morphine immediately and gave me paracetamol. The pain was so bad i could not describe with words how much it hurt . In my case the metal bar actually detached and they had to correct it again, after which i got an infection as well. I feel for this guy
He is a warrior.
Non stop pain is bad but it’s even worse when it stops for a sec and you think it’s gone but then comes back
I have Pectus Excavatum, nowhere near as bad as this - mine is a very minor depression.
Maybe I should have it checked out again.
Hope you get better 💪
Omg he is so cute
Imagine people that had things like this in medieval times would be a bad time to be alive
And in a few hundred years people will say the same about cancer, leukaemia, kidney failure etc.
They would have died, no treatment, and this type of surgery has not been around for very long either.
That dr was very understanding, could see hes in a lot of pain, paracetamol wasnt the best, when u are in pain 24/7 is unbearable, especially when u cant see the injury.
How can I watch the FULL episodes in QLD
I hope he got/is getting the help he needs, also, he seems like an intelligent dude
The fact they gave him morphine and no in between is wild. That’s gonna lead to so much pain because you basically go from no pain, to over the counter bare minimum pain killers that are meant for like headaches
Woah there's a
So little comments
I am know enjoying the video and it finish.
I came to this video actually searching for a similar condition, but my pain at least is not constant. I have something called costochondritis which is a chronic chest wall inflammation. There IS no surgery for it, just have to let it run its course and heal itself. I'm at least fortunate that I have a relatively mild case all things considered.
I hope Jamie is a lot better now, i know what it is like to be in pain.
you could see how drained he is he looks like one more day the pain he would have passed out
It will help you
Poor man
I had constant chest pains I thought I was having a heart attack then I went to my doctor and she told me my cholesterol was Sky High I was put on medication and my chest pain stop I also suffer from chronic pain I know the what pain like that feels like it's horrible
I feel for him. Constant pain is draining and exhausting. When I got ill I just assumed that they would be able to stop pain but the only hope is morphine but that makes you drowsy 😩
You couldn’t take another opiate? Everyone is different and different types will effect you differently. I have chronic nerve pain after a lesion on my spinal cord (I have multiple sclerosis) and morphine makes me feel groggy and drugged to be frank. I hate it but hydrocodone relieves a lot of the pain, not all but enough, and I feel as though I just took a Tylenol that actually worked if that makes sense. No drugged up groggy feeling.
Sincerely hope you’ve been able to manage something that works for you in the year since you posted. No one who hasn’t experienced it could truly understand how draining it is both physically and emotionally. Truly wish you the best❤
@@angiebear8727 I currently take tramadol and ibuprofen. When I'm in a lot of pain I take tramadol then 2.5 hours later cocodamol but that's only if I'm desperate. It's a constant juggling act of trying to be as pain free as possible but still being able to function to work. Take care xx
@@pixiepie3774 had to look up what co codomal is. I’m assuming you’re not in the Us because this is the first time I’ve heard of it. Glad you’ve found a good balance.
@@angiebear8727 no in the UK. Co-codamol is also called Zapain. Its basically Paracetamol and Codeine x
His friend tho👉👈🥺
What is The Name of This Hospital????
I also have this condition but they won't operate on mine is the most painful thing mine dislocates it's horrible wish u well
Why won't they operate?
Never forget waking up after having an organ removed and being told I can have 1 paracetamol. Literally a single paracetamol tablet. I just lay there like “doc I take more than that for a headache!” I always sneak my own medication into hospital now ...
Same here! I always take a supply of my normal painkillers & medication onto hospital & keep them in my handbag. I am very ill with several conditions & am on about 30 different medications including blood thinners, daily antibiotics, a very high dose of morphine & co-codamol (paracetamol & codeine), pregabalin, medication for my seizures, blood pressure medications & loads of others. Several times I have been left waiting in serious pain or being sick for HOURS waiting for the nurses to bring my meds. I have had Renal Sepsis twice & nearly died & one nurse decided that rather than give me my intravenous antibiotics & fluids before she went on her break, she couldn't be bothered. Then once she was back she had forgotten & I was so ill anyway & starting to feel worse because I was now becoming dehydrated & my blood pressure started dropping lower & lower. It wasn't until just before the nursing shift was about to change that the nurse bothered to check on me & by that stage I was really dehydrated (I was nil by mouth & unable to keep any fluids down anyway so it wasn't like I could just drink water) & this nurse started panicking because she hadn't given me my medication & my blood pressure was really low & she was running around trying to get me all of the medication & fluids before the doctors came round when the new shift started. I've had several experiences like that & it's just horrible. One nurse was deliberately withholding my pain medication- the medication the doctor had prescribed for me! as "she didn't think I needed it" it was in the middle of the night & I was literally crying with pain. I managed to finally speak to another nurse who was so angry on my behalf that I heard her having a shouting match with the horrible nurse who had refused my medication & I didn't see that horrible nurse again & someone came to see me the next day to speak to me about it so I gathered she waz in serious trouble over it. I've had some fantastic care over the years & I really am so glad that we have the NHS in the UK as they do so much wonderful work, but it is the bad NHS workers who seem to ruin it for the rest. I also hate it with GP's where you get another doctor who isn't your GP interfering for no reason & changing or stopping medication when they have no knowledge of your case history & are nothing to do with your care.
I was taken to the hospital last week with Acute Pancreatitis, and it felt like my Pancreas and Kidney (I only have 1) were exploding, and they left me in the waiting room for 25 hours, all while I was passing out from the pain the whole time.
Not only that, but they didn't even give me fluids until the 3rd day, and because I was passed out most of the time, I didn't drink, and was only peeing once a day.
Because I only have 1 Kidney, that could have been extremely, EXTREMELY dangerous very quickly.
I am suffering from chest pain since 2017 I went to different doctors different hospitals. They say everything if fine now I don't know what to do am in pain everyday but I feel sorry for this poor guy
I'm not saying 100% this is the case for you but I had incredible chest pain and I saw several doctors for it and they all told me that nothing was wrong as well. I found out after going to at least 5 doctors that it was stress and anxiety causing the pain. I didn't think it could manifest so strongly as pain like that but I was given medicine for anxiety and the chest pain stopped shortly thereafter.
Give the poor man some Tramadol.
I had the same thought.
That stuff can give people bad headaches. It did me. Oxycodone was the one for me after an op.
@@Chris_1983 they all have side effects though, that’s the challenging part.
Amen
I had knee surgery and they sent me home with oxycodone. I didn't like the way it made me feel, so went straight to Tylenol. Doesn't do much for pain, but I didn't want an opioid, and I'm allergic to all non steroid anti inflammatory pain killers.
I just got an alcohol ad
He sounds like Callux
Poor guy
He’s so handsome
I had this surgery n I’m still insecure about my chest lol
The main thing is your health ... As you get older things like perfect chests won't matter as it does to you now 🙂.
I've had key hole in my lower abdomen, and although the scares are never seen i think they're so neat to have. Its a story to tell and a part of my life experience that I'll be able to reflect on in the future as they change as I get older.
They also solved an issue which is the main thing, respecting what the body can handle! Xxxx
@@rachelelizabeth2483 ye I guess I should be greatful that it has helped my future health, but my chest has almost turned into now a ‘pigeon’ chest where it was coming in now it sticks out so like Idk I need to gain weight on my chest tbf to maybe even it out
i had pectus carinatum and had surgery to fix it and i hate my scar
Is the surgery really bad. Both my kids have it, but my 2 year old has it more severe. We were told that as a teenager he would definitely need the surgery.
I’ve got a concave chest as well I’m 14
I had that when I was young but now it’s gone at 29
Sometimes of you're young enough and still growing, they can correct it with a suction device.
wow! in Canada and USA hydromorphone Is almost illegal to prescribe..even Tylenol 3..
Or dear
Reminds me of rafe from obx
I’m no doctor but how in the hell do you go from morphine to paracetamol? They fucked up there big time!
Don’t lay down so u don’t fall in to a coma
I would like a surgery to push out the depression.
Geezer definitely wanted diazepam and not just codeine
Who wouldn't 😂
I'm super lucky to have been at UCH and was given oxycodone (120mg per day, high I know! But we kept going up in 5mg increments until pain was controlled). I spent 6 weeks in the ICU with rhabdo and heart failure. I'm now on 65mg of oxycodone 2 years later. When don't have it my life is just pure torture. Thank god this country is understanding the needs of people in pain
Yeah, you can hear the nurses surprise as well as everyone else’s surprise they went from “Here’s some Morphine, now here’s some paracetamol” like…what?? The morphine is only given for a few days because of addictiveness but to jump straight to over the counter paracetamol is not it. Coding can be addictive but you need it! Cause that’s one HELL of a surgery he’s had…man, that’s bonkers.
I think i have endometriosis which means I’m in pain 24/7 hrs a day I can relate
The fact that he wasn’t sent home with a prescription is beyond ridiculous. Paracetamol shouldn’t be the only analgesic given after any type of surgery, let alone one as painful as this. If I’m being honest, I don’t even think codeine will be a strong enough opiate for his pain, but at least it will help. I recently had my gallbladder removed and was sent home with a script for 10 oxycodone tablets. I was in a lot of pain, but I imagine this type of surgery would be far more painful.
How can they switch him from morphine to paracetamol straight after a surgery like that!
Luckily his good
Shouldn't he just be able to call his surgeon and get some better pain meds, instead of having to go to the hospital?
I had opiates given only after having my wisdom teeth (all four) removed at once, most definitely this guy should have gotten that too
It was codeine I beliveve, called panacod
Codeine is classed as an opiate
Paramol is also used and has paracetamol and Dihydrocodeine (opiod)
Opioids are very addictive. In Canada we're trying to reduce their usage because they basically caused an addiction epidemic
Who came here for improving listening for OET purpose
paracetamol is completely useless, especially if you built up some resistance to opioids. You might aswell try to treat pain with cereal or something, except ceral doesn't fuck up your liver
When a pressed the Button (almost the only one) on my iPhone 12 Pro Passific Blue, just after watching the notifications feed screen, this started playing. I had no intention whatsoever to play anything, just as always, Apple phones (or probably any other phone these days) starts playing something cause it’s massive touch screen figured I intentionally pressed some part of it.
That must be important to watch for me. I wish him recovery and all those mental vices that put you in place where you understand all the shit that life throws at you and kind of accept is as self-evident, to go away. Let life be good, without mental pressure that “any shit can happen” or something. Let it flow and be great. Amen.
I knew she was going to give him codeine. Being ill with chronic pain wich is horrendous at times, Iv been ill for 12 years. So iv learnt alot about meds n what docs will do. I really felt for this guy. Ridiculous to take away morphean and replace with paracetamol and ibuprofen. So stupid . We pay taxes we are allowed strong meds if needed. Dr.s need to tske a course in understanding chronic pain.
Poor darling I’m praying for you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Paracetamol from morphine of 3 days ???? What in the
This could have been dealt with by general practice as opposed to A&E ideally the patient should have been advised of this upon discharge post op
It depends, if he couldn't get an appointment or if it was during the night he can't be expected to be in horrendous pain until his GP is able to see him purely because he wasn't given the correct pain management plan. He'd had major surgery and was struggling to inflate his chest due to the pain so I can't blame him for going to A&E
He’s had a serious operation and he’s in considerable pain plus shortness of breath !
If that’s not something to go to a&e for then I don’t know what is.
The GP would have sent him to hospital. They won't touch post op pain with a barge poll
@@hannahdyson7129 Why couldn't he have just called the surgeon's office who operated on him and explained? They can't prescribe over the phone in the UK?
Morphine to paracetamol.....where are we.....on mars......
Morphine to paracetamol/ibuprofen!? Good ol’ NHS there 🙄. Codeine can be brought over the counter though. Kratom is the safest option, way less addictive.
Yea I dont kno why he thought he couldnt get it over the counter
Should have gave him something like tramadol
Is codeine really the next thing to morphine? We can buy Tylenol with codeine over the counter.
So hard
Gees no pain management, that's bad but let hope he doesn't get addicted to it.
Going to A&E for stronger pain meds. Shouldn't he have booked a doctors appointment.
I’d say this classifies as an emergency. He’s acting chill but it’s meant to be one of the most excruciating surgery’s due to pressure on bones etc. Also, he didn’t know if the pain was meant to be better at that point so they can do X-rays and checks much faster than the route of getting an appointment with a GP.
The GP would have sent him to the hospital anyway . They don't like getting involved in prescribing pain meds
@@LiannaLovelle Couldn't he have just called his surgeon's office and explained over the phone? They couldn't then call in a prescription?
Hope you ain't had Satan's Poker! 👹💉
Sorry, but FUCK THAT.
Codeine is trash, they can get it over the counter in the UK actually lol
not the stronger strength you cant
It's weak Codeine over the counter, the prescription ones are strong AF. Plus you get constipated lol
Codeine is affective if you get it off he drs. The ones over the counters is very week, as it is easy to get addicted to it.
Pharmacy’s codeine is up to 8/500mg - that’s 8mg of codeine / 500mg of paracetamol per tablet. Drs can prescribe 15/500 or 30/500 per tablet, take 2 of these up to 4 times daily & that’s definitely not a ‘trash’ dosage.
@@lostyank shut up, no one cares.
What about a couple of shots of whiskey & MANNING--UP ? !!!!
This dudes clearly having opiate withdrawals
he really isnt, its common to slowly step down from strong painkillers instead of just stopping. the guy is just in a lot of pain because they gave him something thats only really meant for very minor pain
@@NexusC35 That's ridiculous, from Morphine to "paracetamol & ibuprofen".. That's such a stupid drop in pain meds, that poor guy. It's not "withdrawal" sounds like the surgery was not long ago either.
@@cariad81 guessing you meant to reply to them and not me? haha
@@NexusC35 I was agreeing with you, what you said.. that poor bloke!
@@cariad81 I know, confused me for a couple seconds before I read it xD. The fact they gave him paracetamol and an anti-inflammatory for severe pain is insane. You only have to watch the woman's response when he said that to realise that it wasnt right
Jesus is the way the truth and the life no one gets to heaven except through Him. Repent before it’s too late it’s your choice... heaven or hell change your ways and turn to Him !!!
Stfu
Ok cheese string
Jesus is not God he is a prophet of God, Jesus prayed to the father in the bible so if he prayed he is not God because he is relying on God, go back to the worship of One God and ditch the made up trinity.
What a nice doctor...made sure someone who's in need gets what they need to be in better condition and everything gets done correctly so her patient is healthy 🥺🤍 the guy suffered a lot man I don't wish that for anyone he's still soo strong I can't explain how much he'd be going thru because I'm having breathing issues since last month and I still don't know the reason and it's actually very draining mentally and physically I'm only having a breathing problem and this guy goes thru constant pain knows that his ribs keep growing inwards displacing his internal organs causing him so much suffering I pray he gets well very soon 🥺 stay strong sir you'll be very very healthy very soon again Ameen 🤍
