Thanks! My dr gave me percacet after my lap, but not regularly. Since,
I have moved & changed dr's. My new dr gave me darvocet last Feb, but
its not working as well now. I've tried Aleve, Advil, avarything over
the counter. I think the Aleve & Naproxen caused my IBS. Heat helps,
but I can't stay plugged in all day.
Thanks again, Tia.
