I'm very nervous about proper pain relief following my upcoming tummy tuck. I had a terrible experience with post op pain after having a transternal thymectomy, and had my blood pressure bottom out and collapsing. I also have a condition that can be aggravated by pain and stress. I have a threshold due to treatment for chronic pain. Is Percocet and Valium a good/common treatment for managing post op tummy tuck pain?
