D'oh! That's extremely sucky.

I'd certainly make sure you get a supply of vicodin before you go, then, just to be sure. It's also worth (I always recommend this) learning Japanese phrases specific to your medical needs, or having something translated and written down that you can show doctors in Japan if the need arises.
