My surgery was April 17th just 1 day shy from 2 weeks. My question is on pain meds. When they sent me home on the 19th I picked up a precription on Hydrocodone 5mg. I have taken them like clock work. I take 2 every 4 to 5 hrs to stay ahead of the pain. Yesterday I had to call my general doctor for a refill. The first bottle contained 80 tablets and this bottle contains only 40 with no refill. I see my regular physican tomorrow for the unwrapping of my knee. I have no staples so this is why I had to have the bandage on my leg so long. I am going to talk to him about the pain meds but I am curious about your experiences....
