Constipation is a well known side effect and it’s listed on that sheet of paper your pharmacist almost certainly provided when you picked up that prescription.

Like I'm going to be reading fine print while suffering pain that was Level 8 even with the opioids. All I could think of those first few days was how to stay asleep, because I wasn't aware of it then.

I’ve never taken an opioid in my life, nor will I ever, yet I know all about the bad effects of them <-— why I won’t ever take them.

Another little bad effect of opioids they “forget” to tell you (but you can easily find out with a little Google searching) is called...

opioid induced hyperalgesia

That means the opioids will over time have the opposite effect and INCREASE pain.
