This is a lot of fun.  But, as I always say, this too will pass.

Pooch, during procedures that call for pain drugs, it will not hurt you to stop LDN for a day or three and take the pain med. I have done this and I have also taken narc pain relievers, after dental surgery and didn't stop my LDN and had no problems whatsoever.
The only reason that you are told not to take narc pain relievers with LDN is because at very high doses Naltrexone is a narc catalist and so your narc pill may not work, but at the low dose of naltrexone that we take, I've found that this is not the case. At least on a temporary basis.
If you have to be on heavy narcs for an extended period of time then I wouldn't advise it, though.
