I had my tonsils removed 1.17.08
I am still in a great deal of pain and saw my ENT today
He thought my pain level was higher than 'normal' patients and gave me a steroid shot of Celestone (to boost the Prednisone I've been on since surgery) as well as a script for Lorcet Plus 7.5-650. Post-op I was given Lorcet Elixir and had to call him Sunday because I was already out of medicine. So I have gone through 3 bottles of elixir and have taken 4 of the pills. I am also using Phenegran suppositories (was told by a nurse that can boost the effects of the pain meds). Without my pain meds I am a 7 on a scale of 1-10; on them I am a 3. If I eat the pain goes way up.
Does anyone have any suggestions what else to try? My ENT doesn't seem to be much help.
