Today, after getting my wisdom teeth pulled, I woke up from a much needed nap realizing I should take my pain medication. My mother then told me she had thrown them out so I wouldn't get addicted and become a drug dealer. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mother-in-law flushed my pain medicine because she believes I’ve been using it too long and I’m addicted. I had surgery four days ago. FML
Today, my older, pill-addicted brother, came over to visit with me. After he left, I realized all my Vicodin was gone. I got my wisdom teeth removed two hours ago. FML
Today, I found my mom throwing my very expensive and important medication down the toilet. She thought I was doing drugs. FML
Today, I got my wisdom teeth out. Due to the drugs they gave me I felt nauseous. When I went to the bathroom as a precaution I did not throw up. Instead I passed out face first in the toilet. FML
Today, I woke up with one of the worst migraines I've had in months. My mother (who thinks I'm a hypochondriac) began to scream at me about "making up an illness". When I asked for my meds, she called me an addict, and dumped my $300 prescription down the sink. FML
Today, my mom told me she's a drug addict, sold my bed to buy meth, and then lectured me about how I should be okay with it. FML
Today, I came home from surgery to remove my tonsils. It's a much better surgery to have as a kid, because when you get older it's much more painful. I didn't know my mom liked pain killers. I do now, because I have none left and I haven't even taken any yet. FML
Today, after having surgery, I called my family to tell them I was out, safe, and on my way home. The first thing they asked was if they could "borrow" some of my pain meds. FML
Today, I got my wisdom teeth removed and took the pain medicine that the oral surgeon prescribed for me before bed. The pain actually did go away for the most part, until my stomach decided to betray me and make me throw up, forcing my jaw to open more than it could after surgery. FML
Today, I got all four of my wisdom teeth taken out. I happen to be allergic to all types of pain medication. FML

Looks like someone ELSE got their wisdom teeth pulled.

Pain sucks but actually your mom did you a favour. You can handle it- and not poison your body.

Acute post-operative pain is more stress on your body than a short course of narcotics would be. There is no reason to be in pain if you don't have to be, and post-op narcs rarely lead to abuse or addiction.

You are a moron for thinking that.

Wow, I'm truly boggled that someone would think that's an acceptable comment to make. That is such irresponsible advice.

It's actually dangerous to stress the body with extreme pain especially after a surgery.

Narcotics used for post-operative pain RARELY lead to an addiction, unless you really have a history of addiction/an addictive personality. When I had my wisdom teeth removed I got codeine for the first two days, then Tylenol with codeine. You can buy Tylenol with codeine OTC. Maybe send a friend to get you some of those, they might take the edge off.

If they're not working well enough, add a shot of whiskey. It has a numbing sopophoric effect when mixed with codeine.

Sopophoric? You mean soporific? That said, taking a narcotic with alcohol is NOT the smartest idea.

Imagine if you wanted to pursue a career being a pharmacist. This would be an awkward moment when you look back.
