Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can try non opiod analgesics like paracetamol infusion or NSAIDs like diclofenac or ktrolac both are goo analgesics. After surgery you can keep epidural catheter for few more days so that you can refill the anesthetic drug analgesia can be ensured in the immediate post operative period.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
