The head nurse at the hospital actually called me to say she lives a few minutes away from me and would drop them off and expressed how sorry she was that this had happened vs everyone else who acted like they wanted me to admit I lost or misplaced them. @@samuelsmom Thank you and I will try the Tylenol. @@AhnaLucille Thank you so much I hope to get some real soon.

My doc gave me the scripts at the last meeting with him so that I can get them filled before surgery

My surgeon's office gives all your scripts at the pre-op appointment. Many surgeons give Lovenox injections before and after surgery because clots are common after this kind of trauma. Be sure to take the injections, it will prevent you from developing a blood clot. Prevention is way better that treatment. I had ankle surgery, was immobilized in a boot, that along with the surgeon not having me stop birth control, led to a clot in my calf. It was extremely painful, and very frightening. 2 injections a day for 10 days, followed by 5 months of blood thinners. Constant monitoring of my INR, to make sure my blood was thin enough. I can never be on birth control again, and am constantly afraid I will get another clot. I had exhaustive testing, showing no genetic markers for clots, it was all due to surgery, immobilization, and birth control. It was no fun.

sorry you're in pain with no meds. I don't blame you for the rant. I'd be upset too.... Great idea @@samuelsmom on the liquid Tylenol. I had it in my head, I have to take the meds prescribed to me..
Hopefully you have some Tylenol or someone can run for you brebbugbrielle4... Hoping you feel some relief soon..

Ok, unless you are at unusual risk for clots- just make sure you walk as much as you can every day and you should be fine-- most doctors don't give the blood thinner shots once you leave the hospital. For the pain meds- take liquid Tylenol-- it is effective and safe. Being 3 days out that may be enough to keep you comfortable.
Now, about the scripts-- that is a real problem. This needs to go to the director of the group as this is not acceptable. You can also call the hospital and complain. In fact, I encourage you to. Why-- because this is one way hospitals identify problems. If patients don't speak up then things are not addressed. So complain!
Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you for the well wishes all. Dr. Was suppose to repair a hernia an remove gallbladder he did neither and I've see everyone in the past to days with the exception on him.
