Who are we to question the need of pain meds?
Since you asked: I am someone who has had surgery and know it HURTS. I am someone who decades ago, before I learned better, has watched two dogs who "did not need pain meds" whimper for hours if not days and gimp along in pain after surgery. I am also someone who has worked in pharmacy for 25 years and have completed numerous CEs on the further damage done and delay in healing to someone who is not properly treated for pain management.
I truly hope all goes well for you and yours. |
Sorry, Mayzoo. Know that it isn't about children; but, I'm in the same boat, and I'm sorry someone else had to watch something like that happen.
