I am a handful of pages behind right now, and no time to read them at the moment, so forgive me if this is redundant. I am also allergic to morphine, which I also had the pleasure of finding out after a serious surgery. :( This is all pretty foggy, I vaguely remember briefly waking up in recovery to the most amazing pain ever, (and this is coming from someone who has birthed two babies at home! 
) before blacking out. I also remember waking up again because they got the wheels of my bed stuck in the elevator, and despite the overwhelming pain, I laughed in my head at how ridiculous it was that the hospital beds should not fit through the hospital elevators. Then I blacked out again, lol.
Anyway, it took them two days to realize the reason I was dying was the morphine, and then they switched me over to something else, and it is after that I remember waking up the first time with any sense of clarity. I tried to look it up for you, but I am afraid I couldn't figure it out. The only thing I remember is that it started with a "D", and I don't know if it is something they can send home, I had it intravenously. I would certainly ask, though, if you are still in that much pain. There are alternatives.
As a side note, I am also allergic to codeine, and probably many opiates, which you would think might be obvious from the morphine reaction, but it was the same hospital that I had the surgery done at, (U of M,) that looked over my extensive allergies, (which I gained in cancer treatment, bah!) and prescribed me codeine. It was awful, so watch out for that!
