Being American, I don't understand your system, but aren't you BRITISH Columbia? If you are all the same country, can't you just get to Dr. Dare over in England? Or is my reasoning off?

Lilyth Canada and Britain are about as associated as the U.S. and Britain at this point. The only thing in common we have is we have the same head of state (the Queen as a figurehead) and thus are both part of the commonwealth.

Now in terms of what that means for healthcare, no Canadians can't use the NHS (National Health Service of Britain) unless we were resident in Britain for 3 months+. To put it in perspective I have dual Canadian-British citizenship and even I couldn't pursue the NHS option for this reason.

7tattoo,

I don't know much about it, but I recent,y read an article about a non-addictive pain med....
Might be worth the research.
I know there ae some studies & research into to field of non addictives...
The drug I read about was Neurocet - I think the spelling is correct. Do your research.

You've been given some great advice, treat the whole body as well as your mind, depression can cause physical pain & can increase symptoms.

Best of luck...
