@pekoe01 no problem, glad my experience helped you. The hospital sent me home with oxy, and it didn’t help. I think maybe I took one pill and it just made me spacey, but didn’t take away the pain and discomfort. When I told my doctor he ordered gabapentin, I did take that for about five days but Stopped because it wasn’t really helping the thing that helped the most was the Tylenol and Advil, but ultimately, a little exercise in the form of light walking, and time, was really all that helped it. I could do just about anything after three or four months, but it really took about six months for me to realize I didn’t hurt anymore, just MINOR inconveniences that were easier to deal with. Be patient, healing will come. Best wishes.!
