Log of Tramdol Withdrawl

Well I'm finishing day 3 of my weaning off Tramdal.  I thought at first I was only (not that only is a good term to use) taking 8-10 a day, but I think it was more like 12-13.  Anyway, I went down to 5 for days 1 and 2.  Went through a ton of withdrawls and had to call out from work.  Today was better, though of course I obviously have a long way to go.  I only took 4 today, as I'm only taking them if the withdrawl gets really bad.  I will try another day or two on 4, and then go down to three.  If I'm not off completely by spring break in a month, I will just go cold turkey, as I have 3 days off, plus the weekend, and I could then go through withdrawl.  I'm pretty proud of myself because a lot of people quit only when they've run out.  I quit because I'm just tired of them running my life.  Especially when I just broken a bone and my first thought is, oh good, I can stock up on meds.  So I'm weaning off with pain, but in a way it feels good, plus I have excuse to my coworkers as to way I don't feel good.  Well, I will update on my symptoms and progess!
