<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thank you to the 8 people who responded with tips on this. My original post was: <I will be having surgery on my arm for tennis elbow and carpel tunnel. I know I will have a lot of pain for a few days after but do not know what meds I should ask for. Does anyone know what med's are good for this type of pain following surgery that are both GF and dairy free?> The meds recommended are: Lortab elixer Tylenol w/codeine elixer Darvocet 100mg (lactose and GF) Vioxx was recommended but my last check showed this to include dairy Toradol (an injected type of anti-inflammatory) Pain Buster (used to remove all feeling from the affected area and lasts for a few days) Stokes Pharmacy was also recommended I know my son took the Lortab elixer when he broke his leg so I believe I will go with that unless the doctor sees something else on this list which would be more appropriate. Thanks once again for everyone's help. Jean No. Cal.
