This is a randomized prospective study that will compare the use of narcotics in a control group of non-injected patients with a treatment arm of patients injected intra-operatively with a ropivacaine, morphine, and epinephrine cocktail. The investigators hypothesize that this treatment will reduce narcotic use in patients during their hospital stay, and possibly decrease the length of their stay in the hospital.The investigators also hope their pain will be decreased as displayed by their multi-daily Clinically Aligned Pain Assessment (CAPA) score.
