Thanks everyone for the feedback. It was very helpful. My ENT wants to get me off the Lortab and although my dosage has decreased since treatment ended I still have to take it for pain in my mouth and right side of my jaw. Motrin, even 800mg, is just not enough. I know everyone heals differently but it is good to know that I am not crazy or unusual to experience pain at this point in time.
