In  May 2009 i had arthroscopy shoulder surgery on right shoulder for torn labrum with capsular shrinkage, the Doctor has perscribed for me Darvon N 100 mg 1 tab every 4 to 6 hours, Skelatin 800 mg 1 tab every 6 hours, and Ambien 10 mg for sleep; besides that i did physical therapy for 8 weeks after surgery, i still do the exercises every day when i first get up, i use ice for 20 minutes and heat for 30 minutes on neck, back, and right shoulder. This pain when it comes on last all day, and usually i get 3 to 6 hours of sleep a night even with all the pills i take. Thank You
