morphine is a once a day thing. and percs are for break though.see i went over seas for my surgery so one takes his or her reg meds while over there. then once you return you work on getting off the pills. my reg dose avinza {time release morphine} was 60mgs aday. after my return my dr gave me a script for 14 days at 30mgs to ween off the morphine. which i am now completey off the morphine as of 9/30. and we traded that for 1600mgs aday neurotin for distraction pain. and i still take 4 7.5/325 percocet a day.
my goal is to be off all narc 4 months postop. i return to work on 10/23 which is 2 days light of 12 weeks postop. i expect to need one more script for percs to adjust to the return of standing all day at work.
