Does Ketogan Cause Abuse If Taken For Longer Duration As I Have Hemochrom?

Hey - I live i Copenhagen and was diagnosed with Hemochrom.5years ago.Before that I had been suffering for 20 years from strong pains, cramps in my stomach, back, breast and much more. My blood tests are now normal, but the pain has not gone. Something has got better, but the worst Things are tiredness and pain so that I cannot live a normal life. Until diagnosis and had 3 Ketogan pills daily, and they allowed me to have some good hours. My new doctor says that I will have an abuse if I still get these pills, and he gives me contalgin, which I dont need, as my pain is coming very quickly and is very strong. May be I could use only 1 Ketogan a day. The contalgin must be taken every morning and evening but they dont help when I get a very sudden pain, which may last for 3 - 4 hours. If I have a Ketogan I will get relieved after one half hour, so why should I take daily pills morning and eve for expected pain which may not come. Are there other pain killers which could take the pain as quickly as Ketogan? Is it dangerous for me to get 1 maybe 1 and a half Ketogan daily. I dont think so, then I could leave the daily Contalgin. I am 74 years old.
