Check it out Spine, and take advantage of the abiltity to be adequately and professionally medicated and forarmed before leaving for home or your daughter's home,

Since being on narcotic meds have always arrange ahead of time with my surgeon to allow my Pain Management doctor to take over the management of my medication. I have never had a problem with any of the doctors accepting this arrangement; including the latest lasting two weeks in the hospital. Have been very grateful since a fear of withdrawal is always there. I can understand Spine's concern.
Again, pray all these concerns are addressed and the outcome successful.
