Oh my gosh! One of the worst things you can do to yourself after surgery is get caught without pain control on board when the local wears off. Good luck to you and DH. Not sure I would skimp on the mixing them with food. If he's worried about being on them tell him to appease you for 24 hours. By then, Ibuprofen should keep him from crying.

I told him last night he was going to have to stay on top of the pain by taking something before he's screaming in agony. The nurse told him that today. So did the ortho doctor. So did the pharmacist. He's just feeling a bit cocky right now because the surgery stuff hasn't worn off.

He will take that medicine, I'll make sure of that. Besides, as much as I had to pay for those pills, he's taking them!

I am picturing you shoving them down his throat like a he was a dog. When he starts hurting he will change his mind. My husband is a bear to take care of, sounds like yours is too.

Al the 'heavy duty' pills do is constipate me.

Ibuprofen is my friend.

We're home!

DH came through the surgery just fine but his poor foot is swollen about twice the usual size. He's sleeping off the anesthesia right now but that sucker is going to hurt. I got a prescription filled for some heavy-duty pain killers. He said he doesn't want to take them (Mr. Tough you know?) so I just told him I was grinding them up and putting them in his food. He isn't sure if I'm kidding or not. Think I'll leave him guessing on that one ;)

Thanks for all the well-wishes everyone!

Debby glad DH is doing well - maybe you should leave him off the pills and make him beg, bit cruel I know but works sometimes with stubborn DH's mine was a big strong Boer but came crying when he had a tooth abscess, took him three days though
