That's the thing about the PCA pumps--they NEVER work for me. I get much better pain relief from injections (and in my case, IM rather than IV.) In the case of my hysterectomy, I got greater relief from Percocet taken orally than I did with the morphine drip. Doesn't matter what's in the pump...it just doesn't cut the mustard.
I would put the meds in a sock and wad the sock up and stick it in your shoe. You will have the perfect opportunity to do this when you get undressed prior to surgery. The hospital will put all your things in a plastic bag and send it to whatever room you will be in. Once you are moved to your room, ask the nurse to put your belongings next to the bed. Bring a book with you to put in the bag in case they question why you want your things.
And by the way--all of you copycats --I TOLD HER TO BRING HER MEDS WITH HER BEFORE YOU DID! Why is Blackcat getting all the credit??? Really, just giving you all a hard time!
Good luck, Daycamp!
