Why is it not working?

By drunk I assume you mean nauseous not high.
Go back to your doctor and report your problems.
Not sure what you want TSR do about your pain issues.
What are you taking the pain for even?

Never 'asked' TSR to do anything. Just looking for potential explanations.

How long have you been taking it for?
Pain killers won't completely remove the pain.

A few days so I doubt tolerance will have built up.
Understand that but they don't work at all!

30mg is nothing come back when you're 60 and I doubt it's making you drunk. Just go back to your doctor.

I wasn't thinking about tolerance. More that you have to wait for a week or so for them to starting working. I know I have to do that with mine.
Are you taking paracetamol along side it?

Are you taking paracetamol along side it?
No. Paracetamol never did anything for the pain.

No. Paracetamol never did anything for the pain.
You can take both together, which may help.

No. Paracetamol never did anything for the pain.
If you take it regularly (1g, max 4g daily) it will work in conjunction with the codeine.
Have you tried ibuprofen or aspirin for it?

Have you tried ibuprofen or aspirin for it?
Yes, they don't do anything. This is a well documented situation with the type of pain I am suffering.
knee pain
