Brief Summary: The purpose of this research study is to determine if the two common ways of administering additional opioids morphine like substance narcotic with an epidural either mixed in the epidural solution or given separately through the intravenous are equally effective in controlling post-operative pain
Detailed Description: Open label observer and patient blinded randomized control study of patients age 18 to 85 who are booked to have an open upper abdominal surgical incision where an epidural would normally be offered and expected to be used for an average of 4 to 5 days

Study will be done at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics main operating room and post-operative surgical wards

Eligible patients who choose to consent to participate in the study will be randomized to either have the opioid administered intravenously using patient controlled administration PCA device along with a local anesthetic only continuous epidural infusion the control group or to the treatment group of the opioid combined with the local anesthetic in the epidural with a continuous infusion combined with patient controlled epidural administered PCEA bolus The epidural pump along with the PCA machine will be placed in such away that they can be obscured by a removable cover The patient will be seen daily to obtain pain and satisfaction scores using the Quality of Recovery QoR 15 Secondary data will also be collected including presence of side effects ability to mobilize signs of return of bowel function need for supplemental oxygen and total amount of opioid required Patients will be assigned a study number which all data will be kept under
