ribit,
I'm sorry your hip is giving you a hard time.
When I've had pain issues, the only med I can deal with is Tylenol with codine. I can't deal with feeling druged.
When I had my wisdom teeth pulled (at the same time) he gave me percocet. I took one, made me loopy, still felt the pain, just didn't care.
Never took another. Aspirin helps pain more without the loopy side effects.
Hope you find relief soon.
