As you know Ed I also live in the UK.
On behalf of our American babblers I will respond by asking why we don't use Oxicodone and Hydrocodone?
I work in a hospital as a porter and it seems to me that the pain control is not great. Either people seem to get Ultra strong painkillers like morphine, or they seem to get weak painkillers like paracetamol and ultram, with a little codein thrown in if they're very lucky!
There seems to be no middle ground!
