narcotic pain killers withdrawel symptoms

Me and my boyfriend occasionally did percocet when ever we could get them, which would be like every couple of weeks. Just for fun. But I recently had an abortion and I was prescribed Vicodin. We both did 12 in the matter of 2 days. I went to the hospital because I was having Complications and I was prescribed 15 Percoset. And we did them in the matter of 2-3 days. And every day we would get atleast one or 2 more pain pills. and do those. We were snorting and taking up to 6 pills a day. maybe even more. We then were also taking dilatin every couple of weeks too. When we could get them, some of our friends got concerned. So we flushed the 4 dilatin we had. I was wondering what our withdrawal symptoms would be like?

me and my boyfriend are heavily addicted to these, we mostly do the 30mg roxies (oxycodone) nd 40 and 80 oxycontin.

hunny i would stop now cuz i started with vicodin and the tylanol based percoset...

i wish i could help you out on this bc im going thur the same thing my doctor got shut down for giving to much meds to people and 1 person died from it now what i would like to know is how long will i go thur withdrawal symptoms?i was taking zanax and loratab 10.5m for 3 yrs.

thats interesting, I understand what the dr is getting at I have 6 fusions. and i know back pain to the point i cant move for days pain, they didn't want to give them to me. I wish they had not. I would take the pain over the pills. if you take them you will get hooked. no one is on earth is not going to get hooked its a opium. I tried the pain is horrible and and back pain comes back . you will build up a tolerance and there it is. its not just stopping its the way you are on them even. if you have a spouse you could put it in jeopardy. Lost mine just last week. and i blame the pills. makes you an ass hole when you are on them. maybe not at first but yes eventually. now Im going to get off and ill take the back pain and all it offers. and now i lost my wife over them. the DR warned me it can change you I lost the love of my life over them. spoil it for you? take them and check back in 2 years lets see were you are in life.

I agree, your pain is your pain, and no-one can tell you what that is. GOD will carry you, HE is carrying me. Humbling but GOD is the Healer we should all be looking to.
GOD bless I will keep you in my Prayers, because chemicals are not good in the body..ever..

Don't listen to what anybody says about not trying suboxone, the only way to get addicted is taking a lot every day for a long period at a time, I was very bad (250-350 mg a day easy... All up the nose) for about a year, blew through 40,000$ and then realized I couldn't maintain this lifestyle anymore.. I'm now 2 weeks clean, I took suboxone for 5 days, 4 mg day 1, 3mg day 2, 2 mg day 3, then 1 mg day 4 and 5, cutting down each day guarantees no tolerance and you only take em a week tops, smoke mad weed and take Xanax at night.. All that allows you to eat food, not throw up, and sleep at night the only inevitable withdrawal is the body aches with no energy... Ik biggest addict is no competition but all I'm saying is if I can do it anyone can.. Just make some steps toward really quitting and spend some money on bud, Xanax, and subs, talking about quitting soon is every addicts excuse and means you have no intentions to quit.. I did that for months.. There such a great drug I cant deny that but once ur tolerance goes up to taking 150mg and feeling no buzz what so ever, where's the fun in it when 30mg got u better than the 300mg ur taking in the peak of ur addiction.. I'm no doctor a 20 year old recovering addict who wants to help as many ppl as i can because before drugs I was a boss.. 19 years old.. 30,000 in the bank, a cAr, and a street bike, now I don't have sh*t and would do very bad things to go back in the future and never take the path I chose.. Drugs are never the answer I began heavily using over getting cheated on by a girl friend of 3 years. Now im over her and no where near over my addiction.. Everyone just read this and think about how much u all have to live for especially the junkies around my age

Wednesday night we were at prayer meeting at church and my husband's hand shot up and told the whole church he had a problem with pain killers and needed prayer because he could'nt do it on his own, he hasnt taken anything since tuesday he's had mood swings cant sleep he's been taking vicodin for 10 yrs now and has never tried to stop and its cold turkey i guess i'm just writing to give you all some hope he is now attending a drug program at our church and outside mowing the lawn :) you need support and you need to be honest with family and loved ones so they can help you, and just saying if you look to something else to alleviate the pain of withdrawal your just moving from one addiction to the other drink lots of water take ibuprofin try to sleep there is light at the end of the tunnel ask God for help. Good luck you CAN do it!

:-@ Hi Carol, I suffer from Chronic pain. What is a chronic pain is that no matter how sick I am I am allergice to NSAIS and I can tell you what I am going through. I have been taking Norco for over 7 years. I am tired justifying my need for meds for I have a life of pain. My Dr. got mad at me for I went through my prescription for 100 -10mg in 16 days. I can take 1 every 4-6 hours. He said I am giving you a prescription with no refill and dated it Nov31st 2012.(funny right?) I cut down to half of what I was taking since Saturday so,this is 5 days of what's going on. Pain, unable to sleep for you get an entire achy cramp that makes you need to move around and you can't sleep. I haven't for days,I am taking Unisom and benedryl and no luck so far. My food is going through me the cramping is gettng me nuts. Hope if you try your Dr. helps you. Belledajour

My mom is addicted to pain pills. She moved in with me Yesterday to try to get clean after totaling her car and not even knowing what happened. She has been on them for at least 4 years. She is at the 24 hour mark and I think she is starting to have some problems. Not sleeping and what not. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to help? Do I leave her alone? Keep her busy? Get her some sleeping tea? Any natural remedy type help? 

 

i agree with what uv said. i was taking about 5 or so painkillers a day as painkiller adicts know u tend to build a tolerance to the drug. personally iv had enough and want to move on and stop taking painkillers. two days ago after not taking any painkillers that day during the night time i had pains in my eyes were watery witch was my first symptom. next morning my back and joints ached just will not stop aching. now im writing this three days into my so called treatment if you will. and i am simply dealing with body aches, sweating and being cold frecuentlly. smelly my sweat is smelly my worst symptom is the pains im havving making it very difficult to sleep. i feel shaky and nususe when i get up an walk around now the night befor day two i had a bad fever now cold rag on forhead seemed to help me some. try and eat even tho it may be difficult. now im sure the symptoms may be diffrent for witch ever drug ur trying to become clean from in my case i was taking percasets, a pretty poent painkiller (hydrocodon-oxycodon 7.5mg's) i agree 100% its not easy u will have memories of the "good times" but like you said stick it out and things will get better my 3rd day this morning and it is hard i feel awfull sweatty an cold aches.. if you had to say in your opinon how long may one of thies detoxis last if u will? thx you for you time

I started taking pain pills right after my son in 2003. I was on them for 6mths adter delivery. My husband said outloud one day, you feel good dont you. That my friends changed my thought process. I took them off and on througout the yrs. fiance moved in wt me in 2010 we got married. He started getting us both pills daily. He got arrested in 2011 and 2 mths after he got locked up I found someone thst could get them daily still for me. I've taken them almost every day he's been gone and I've lied to him that I'm not taken them but i am. I only take 2- 2 1/2 norco 10's a day but thats alot for me. I was forced to go wt out few times until more came in. It was horrible a few times, sometimes it dudnt bother me at all. I'm trying to stop on my own. I've been clean 3 days now. I'm mostly depressed! Then comes no sleep, very cold, no energy!! My husband is serious about getting life straight and I don't want to end up like him. He was shooting roxy's with meth bf arrested. I only did pills. Save yourself. I can honestly say I never thought I eould be on them but I started Bc of feel good, and energy. When husband away, I started Bc I was depressed and the pills made me happy and forget my pain of losing him for so long. He comes out of jail in 2014, but still has 12mths outpatient rehab. I'm getting clean bf he comes home, for myself and my son. Being depressed, sad is my hardest problem. It's just me an my son. I pray a lot.

Go to a pain management Dr..you're dr should have one to recommend as mine did. They are the ones who can help you best but you have to take your meds as directed only. They drug test you all the time and if you don't have the right amount in your urine or if you take some other drug say from a friend you wil be dropped immediately. I mean it, immediately. Find one that's recommended by your health insurance if need be... Good Luck

I have a lot of pain and getting ready for another hip replacement. The problem is the doctor is in trouble with the DEA              

She is not allowed to write for pain medicine. I don't know what to do because I'll be in a lot of pain from the replacement.

I think she wrote too many narcotic scripts. Some have to go to pain management but my pain is in my joints and the treatment they use won't help where I've had joint replacements. Don't know what to do. I'm 62 years old.
