[quote=Anonymous]RN here. Sometimes Tylenol is all you need. However, if this surgeon is adamantly against giving anything other than Tylenol, I would look around. I've found those doctors are the hardest to deal with when trying to advocate for patients who need better pain management. That said, I'd also be wary of a surgeon who just freely prescribes narcotics too. The good in between is the one who talks about how they normally handle pain management (maybe with Tylenol) and then how they escalate it if you're still in pain. Or how they escalate it if you're having a certain level of pain in the recovery room before you go home (if it's same day surgery). Or ask about your history with pain management. [/quote]
