Today is my 21st birthday! I need some advice. Here's the story: I was in the hospital yesterday because I pulled ALL of my intercostal muscles in my chest, so now I am taking hydrocodone for the pain. My friends want me to drink tonight, for obvious reasons, but I can't drink while taking the pain meds. That leaves me with a few options to celebrate my birthday and I would like advice on which route I should go.
1. Take meds for the pain, don't drink
2. Take meds for pain, drink very little
3. Don't take pain meds, drink
4. Don't take pain meds, show excruciating pain, celebrate at a later date
