You are correct about pills and painkillers in particular being band aids. I had both knees replaced last year. Recovery has been just great. I did take some oxygen for a few days, but then just used Tylenol for pain.
Does gabapentin require an Rx? I've never taken it, and would like to avoid drugs that cause withdrawal. Thank you.
