So I had my pre op appointment today and I asked the doctor if he was going to be giving me liquid pain meds after my surgery and he told me no that he was going to be giving percocet and it's only in pill form. He said it's because percocet is stronger than most liquid medications so I'm wondering what is the best method to be able to swallow it without it being excruciating for me!?!?! Any advice would help!!
