Pain Meds - How Long Did You Take?

[trekker954 421]

I was given liquid hydrocodone when I left the hospital a day after surgery. After my first sip, I dumped it down the drain it was so disgusting and there was no way I could down it. That was it for me. Honestly I was only uncomfortable a couple of days and my pain was mostly when I was getting up and down out of the chair. I was pretty much pain free by day 4.

I'm a band to duodenal switch revision and I'm post op day 6. I'm still on my hydrocodone and Tylenol mix. I have one incision that is giving me the most trouble and is the reason I take it. I'm hoping as I start to feel better that I will wean off of it
