Morphine in after surgery

When I just went into the Hosp. for neck surgery the nurses would come in ALL during the day and night,while doing other things they were also putting "something" in my I.V. bag. Someone told me that could be morphine? Does that sound right?  Just woundering cuz these w/d`s were/are way worse than the darvocet ones. If anyone has a thought??

Why don't you ask your doctor what they gave you? I had Morphine after reconstructive back surgery but it was only for a few days, not enough to cause withdrawal. How long were you on the IV?
