Waiting for ok from insurance company for go ahead. I broke my wrist over 20 yrs ago, undetected fracture. Reinjured it 8 years later, had orif. Reinjured it 1 1/2 yrs ago, tear in ligament between scaphoid and adjoining bone. Horrible arthritis, now going for scaphoidectomy/4 corner fusion. My concern is pain afterwards. I have a really high tolerance for pain, so traditional pain meds just don t cut it when pain lever is high. My concern about what I should ask for for pain meds afterwards. What can I expect my doctor to prescribe since norco does not work, nor does dilatid in pill form. Any recommendations for something in the days post surgery?
