help with bad dr and meds

I have cronic pain. RLS,fibermialga,diabetes,neuropathy,among other things. I have been takeing one or two norco and it works. I have no problems or sideeffects from it. There are days i may take three but that is the max. My primary dr wanted me to try a pain management dr. He told me I am addicted to norco and i have to switch medications. So he gives me morphine. It is way to strong and i fekt like a zombie. Dr said it was not a  side effect of morphine It was me coming off norco. I totally disagreed so he put me on Percocet. I think its to strong to. Is it really better to go on a stronger medication when its not needed? Are my symptoms really because i need norco and not that they are to strong. I just want to feel.like a normal person and I dont
