Allan, I have had a lot of surgery in recent years, and it started with a bit of gangrene in 1998 (I was a bit ill advised in trying to cure an ingrown toenail while a bit drunk, forgot to sterilize the instrument).
Let me state one thing for your support. Pain is transient, even if it is 24/7. Four months of no sleep and no proper nourishment weren't pleasant, but they ended. The greatest problem, when one is in such an exigency, is the lack of relief. I don't pray, but I prayed to every God known to mankind for just an hour's relief. Unlike you I'm not allegic to painkillers, I've the opposite problem. They have no effect on me. But either way it is the same, you have to put up with a continual pain and can only sleep when you practically drop. Trust me, it passes. And one of the wonderful things about the human mind and body is that you forget. It has been said that if women remembered the pain of childbirth all families would have only one offspring. I don't make light of this, but after you heal you will have forgotten at least a part of what you went through.
