How long until the pain ends?

My right thigh has been my largest obstacle post op. I am 3.5 weeks post LAP RNY The pain ranges from a constant tingling to feeling as though someone is pouring hot molten lead down my thigh. Pain extends from my hip to my knee and seems to be much worse some day for no apparent reason. Afraid to continue pain meds (addiction), although it is the only thing that helps me sleep. Others with similar stories please share any information.
