ahahahahahahaha! I am very glad that diamorphine works as intended for you, and hope that you make a swift recovery and find a balance of taking painkillers that works for you.
My dad was Very Unhappy after being given diamorphine, and complained AT LENGTH that he had HAD DREAMS, and described them in a way that he had never done before. They seemed like perfectly normal descriptions of dreams to everyone else - I did not know the word aphantasia at the time, but yeah we're now pretty sure that my dad was usually aphantasic, and the diamorphine was showing him a whole new world when he just wanted to sleep quietly.
