I had surgery three weeks ago. My surgeon had me do a pre-op physical with my PCP and also said to have the PCP handle pain management after their allowed 1 week post op opioid. My PCP prescribed gabapentin and sent it to my pharmacy. In hospital my surgeon asked what my PCP prescribed and I informed them of the Gabapentin and that my spouse picked it up for when I was discharged. Surgeon said absolutely do not take and said they only wanted me on extra strength Tylenol if able as they were able to give me oxy for 1 week post op.
I immediately messaged my PCP and informed them I was not to take the gabapentin. However It is now on my prescription history and in my medical notes. All of which will show up when I send in my medical records that for sure the FAA will request due to the nature of my surgery (consulted AME prior to surgery to be prepared for when I apply for medical).
I never took the script so what should I do to remedy this being on my record? I can absolutely have my PCP document this. There is also a record of the email I sent stating the surgeon did not want me to take it.
