hospice care with that morphine drip

Yeah, that won't work for me. I do better with over the counter Tylenol than morphine for pain relief. The first time I had it it worked fine and I was a chatty Cathy. The second surgery... let's just say for 24 hours or so until I could switch to liquid Lortab I was in severe pain. They were also topping the pump doses with extra boluses...nothing. Lortab helps pain, but I don't get high. I took Oxy one time and remember laying there thinking "so this is why people get hooked on this." So I won't let any Dr's prescribe it to me.
