make sure you take the pain meds like it says..even if you don't like the feeling they give you.
I went through a painful shoulder surgery and I was determined I was going to make it with out the meds. (You hear all these stories about getting addicted) I had a longer recovery time and I think it was because I was to afraid of the meds.
Good Luck

Also, understand that people don't get addicted if they take them for what they are used for. This is a misconception that people have. If you have pain and you take pain meds as prescribed, you won't get addicted to them.
Addiction happens when people take pain meds after no longer having pain or having less pain that what the med requires.
