Having surgery 6/17 with Dr Rapael Gomez in Bogota Columbia. Has anyone had experience with a pain pump? They don't use experal down there which would have been my preference so pain pump it is. Just don't know what to expect pain wise.

I just had a lower body lift and brachioplasty. Some lipo for auto-augmentation of the butt was done as well.

I have no idea what "experal" is, so clearly I didn't have it. I also didn't have a pain pump. I had some pain medication in my IV and then pills at the right times. I was totally fine except for one SNAFU when they neglected to drug me before moving me. Just make sure you are clear about your pain level.

Thank you. I just arrived in Columbia. Too late to chicken out. I will stay on the meds as long as I need to lol and hope the pain pump works for me.
