Good luck. Two years ago I had to get surgery to have my appendix removed. There's gonna be a bit of pain when you get out of it, but those meds are fun. After you take one you're either knocked out by them or you're stoned out of your mind.

The meds do nothing for me.  Well, not quite nothing.  They make me itch all over.  I tried "all" of the normal ones, Percocet, etc. after my back surgery, and they all were the same.  No pain relief, no interesting side effects, lots of itching.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

I just got home from surgery. They trimmed the tears in my shoulder, shaved down all the bone spurs and trimmed the bursa sac. I go back in three weeks to get stiches out. Right now I have a pain blocker in my shoulder for the pain. They put me on Norcone ( ? ).

Best of luck with rehab Tomcat. I'm actuallly on my way to Meadowlands hospital for an operation on my neck. My primary dr had a cream compounded for topical use. It has ketamin and flexeril in it, we'll see how it works post op.
