I never found the withdrawals from hydrocodone all that bad. But that's me comparing it to Worse withdrawals from Methadone and Tramadol. Believe me after a extended use of Tramadol, it is So Much worse than coming off hydrocodone. See coming off tramadol you get all the effects as you would coming off hydrocodone, except you have these panic attacks on top of that. And it takes a lot longer to come off Tramadol and feel normal again. Takes about 3-4 weeks off hydrocodone and you feel normal again. Tramadol can take two months before you feel that normal again.
Sounds good Stan! I think you are on the right track. Quitting the Norco's has been one of the toughest things I have ever gone through. I remember telling my wife "I'll never get addicted to pain killers" as she warned me nearly 5 years ago. But I did! I am blown away what a hold on my body those thing had on me. I am feeling so much better, thinking clearer, feel healthier, and best of all I am not lying to myself anymore!!! You don't have to tell the whole town, but you do need to be honest with yourself and your loved ones! Its the best approach, trust me! Good luck and stay strong! I'll check in on your progress soon.

I can totally relate! You are doing a great job! I found that when it was the time for my normal dosing was when my body craved them the most. I just tell myself to hold on....and it would pass. 3 1/2 is great from 5-10. I think you should try 1 1/2 twice a day for a few days then do the quick taper from there. 2 for two days, then 1 for 2 days then 0. You are almost there. Hang in there! I just sent you a message with a link to the Amino Acid Protocol, did you get it???
