NSAID drugs can be scary and unfortunately you are not going to get one without any possible side effects. As poor Tatum was clearly in pain, she really needed something to give her some relief. I hope you get her lp surgergy done soon so Miss Tate Tate doesn't have to be in any prolonged pain I know you are scared about doing the surgery but in the long run it will be so much better for her!
