I have some 800mg Motrin and muscle relaxants, non-narcotic stuff, Skelaxin, I believe, and they seem to work fine.

I asked for a quart of liquid codeine, but my Doctor said nope...

Edit: spelling

3. good for me
would be no pain! Yuck to the codeine I can't stomach it.

The drip morphine I had when I broke my arm (six screws/plate) now that was pretty good, the morphine not the break. :)
I had one of those push buttons was told to push it when I felt pain. So I did and then some!
The nurse fussed at me she said I was pushing it to much! :evilgrin:

So how did you manage to hurt yourself? Mine was a wreck/bike.
