I stumbled upon this site and read about your problem regarding MAOI's and your options of painkillers and I think I may have a solution.
I take parnate (30mg/day) and a few months back my doctor prescribed me a quasi-narcotic painkiller which worked fairly well. It's called Ultram(tramadol).I was taking around 200mg/day for a significant time period and experienced no adverse reactions at all.
BUT, I did, however, read that there is some risk of hypertensive problems but let me add that my brother takes Parnate and also was prescribed Ultram and he experienced no adverse effects either
