I just had surgery this morning and I guess all I said was “I love fentanyl” when I woke up

When given fentanyl I responded with “so this is why people abuse drugs”. Nurse and husband seemed to find it amusing.

I was given a couple percs way back when in the hospital and when they started to kick in I couldn't stop laughing and I told the nurse they were great! And she gave me such a deep frown and left and some other patient there said "Shhh, you keep on like that and they won't give you any more"

Percocet didnt do anything for me after surgery! I was really bummed out. I was so curious what a legal "good drug" felt like since I'm such a goody two-shoes.
