Pain Meds after knee surgery??
I haven't had any problems taking pain meds after my DS. I've taken NSAIDS, vicoden, morephine, percoset, tramadol, and a bunch of other things I can't remember. (I know a lot but I had 2 surgeries within a few weeks.) If you're not sure you could ask your DS surgeon and he may be able to suggest something.
Good luck on your upcoming knee surgery! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

At 2 1/2 mos post DS I had a knee scope. I took NSAIDS prior to surgery for pain and after surgery I took percocet which knocked me on my ass - no problems with malabsorption here! I had to cut my pills in half. Now I'm 5 weeks post knee surgery and I take an occassional ibuprofen for pain - works fine.
Are you having a knee scope or replacement?
