Glad to hear he's feeling better and even up to getting around a bit, that's really great! As for the pain meds, my SIL (she was a doctor) explained to me that the reason it's important is that you take it on time is to keep up the levels of drugs in your bloodstream for it to work properly. It's like a mobius strip....take the drugs, feels better....feels better so won't take the drugs... If Mr. M is like most guys I know....you'll have to hand it to him every time and watch him swallow!
