I might grow breadseed poppies and extract raw opium sometime, so I can prove to doctors beyond a reasonable doubt that I'm not drug-seeking (if I have opiates at home and I'm at a doctor asking for help instead of at home getting high, obviously I'm not just there to ask for morphine). I mean, they shouldn't deny medical treatment to people they think are drug seeking, but as a stopgap measure this idea appeals to me.

My experience of telling a doctor that I had unauthorized prescription medications has been good so far (it was estradiol and bicalutamide and she was more or less chill about it). So I'm inclined to think similar strategies will go well in the future.
