That's appalling, actually. I had my wisdom teeth pulled in '88 - four of them - and was prescribed "warm compresses." My girlfriend in '99 had a ventral hernia repair and received four Tylenol 3s. When she bitched about the tremendous pain she was in (she was a serious lightweight) they gave her three Vicodin.
