NHS lack of care

My pain consultant at The Pain Clinic prescibed me a fentanyl patch for my back pain. He never warned me how strong a drug this is. It is about 80 times stronger than morphine. No wonder I have had such horrible side effects. It has made my back pain much worse and I now have pain in my hands and feet. I had originally asked for a few morphine tablets for when the pain was severe, but he wouldn't give me them, instead he gave me these patches which have made the pain worse.
