Idk if there’s a better comm for this, but.

Let’s say, purely for the sake of argument that I am currently on a super-cool prescription painkiller that works great. Let’s also say for the sake of argument that the bone/sinew structure that’s supposed to hold my ribs together is trying to kill me constantly by conspiring with the base of my skull to cause me unbearable chronic pain. If I skip more than like one day of the cool prescription painkillers, then even just walking around becomes challenging. But also, if I just keep taking the cool prescription painkillers, I’ll build up a tolerance. I’m on like 75mg a day right now and even that could be playing with fire.

I need something cool that’s gonna dummy out my pain receptors long term. What’s a good painkilling solution? I’ve tried cymbalta, taking way too much paracetamol and ibuprofen, and this cool highly addictive prescription thing. I’m game for any suggestions.
