Hi @populerrose12! Welcome to the community
I'm sorry to hear that you're in so much pain at the moment. Are you in hospital right now?
We're not able to give medical advice on the community, so we couldn't advise what pain medication you should be on. Have you told the doctors that you're in a great deal of pain, and the paracetamol and ibuprofen aren't enough?

Yes they said they can’t prescribe anything else

Hmm. To be honest, I'm not sure what else to suggest @populerrose12. Would you be willing to tell us a little more about your situation? Have they explained why they can't prescribe anything else?
