You are going to be on some heavy painkillers for a little while. Really not a big deal,
For most people…
A small but significant amount of people metabolize opioids faster than they should.
So if they’re supposed to take a pill every 8 hours, they might get 2x as fucked up the first 4 and no pain relief for 4 hours till their next.
Which is like a recipe for prescription misuse and eventually opiod addiction. Especially when doctors up the dosage instead of spreading more pills throughout the day.
Any advice for someone who broke bones that need surgery to fix?
Broke my ankle and leg in 3 places and I’m getting surgery tomorrow. Idk how to feel or what to expect.
