Göring was hooked on morphine. And it wasn't due to a war injury. He got belly shot in the failed coup of 1923, which led to al kinds of speculations. Such as the The Colonel Bogey March with new lyrics invented by british soldiers: Göring has only got one ball, Hitler's got two but very small. Also, Julius Streicher openly speculated on Göring's ball condition and suspected him to be impotent and not the father of his daughter Edda. Which ultimately cost him his job as "Gauleiter" of Franken. There was also a contemporary German joke on the real meaning of the name Edda. "Ewiger Dank dem Adjutanten". (Eternal thanks to the adjutant). Which of course could earn you a place in a concentration camp if caught telling it.
When Göring got caught by the allies, he had moved on to Paracodein tablets. Burton C Andrews reported that he carried several bags of these tablets with him when being brought to camp Dustbin.
