You may not need it for long. I had my gall bladder removed a few years ago and found the percocet too be a bit much but I had the surgery laproscopically. Yours was an open surgery (they opened you up)?

I'm on percocet right now too. I had back surgery two weeks ago but my surgical experience wasn't as "fun" as yours.
