Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I was in the Hospital for four days the 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th for pain management. I had 4 Drs and now one will be the main guy to get me straight and under control for pain. They sent me home with methadone , which helps a lot with the pain and I take it every 6 hrs. Plus there is Indocin that I will be taking in liquid form when the drug store gets it in. This plus most of my other meds. The methodone I can take every 3 hours for breakthru.
