You're right, Scott. The stuff I got post root canal was Oxycodone. It gave me terrible headaches, right where the top of my neck meets my skull. It was awful. I also got very dizzy. I hated it.

However, I definitely had Oxycontin after my most recent surgeries.The real kick in the teeth is that I think I will need further surgery, and this Oxycontin didn't do jack squat to alleviate my pain.

As long as you let them know up front, they can probably find another similar-classed drug that will help. My wife went through most of them due to a car accident, and they all were different in their own ways (in terms of effectiveness, and side effects).
