[quote=Anonymous]There are doctors who refuse to give opioids after surgery (although unless you are sensitive to NSAIDs IV toradol, which is an NSAID, is apparently pretty effective). There are also a lot of doctors who believe that the reaction to the opioid problem has made things much worse in terms of patient care and managing pain. I had wrist surgery after a bad fall (couple of plates and a lot of screws) and the first night was agony even with whatever the opioid was(might have been hydrocodone). I ended up not need all the pills they gave me but would not have wanted to be without. When I had wisdom teeth removed I was given codeine (many years ago) but was going to my parents' for the weekend and forgot the pills. Not as bad as the wrist thing but I mostly slept as much as possible because I was so sore. [/quote]
