Will Norco HELP withdrawls from Opana?

Hello good folks,I'm tapering down from a very high dose of pain meds for the last 12 yrs i've been going to the same p.clinic. ...From 70 mg methadone to where I'm at today. 20mg  0pana ,15mg msir's ..now due to my stupidity my meds are gone early. My p.dr will not refill until my next appointment..I would love nothing more than to get off of this .However I'm scared to death! I went to a five day detox on my own about a month ago and ended up in  er over night w/chest pain..I was checked out,and everything was ok....I'm still going to my dr.Still on opana...You get the pic..I'm very sick ,and tired of the whole mess..I'm able to use norco, and klonipin if i need for w/drawls..Klonipin is my medication.A friend can give me norco the yellow ones if I need them...I'm not sure of their strength.If I sound freaked out,It's cause I don't know what to expect..I guess what i need is a little encouragement.Advice from anyone with  a knowledge of the unknown..I'm 55 yrs.,I'm sorry if I'm difficult to understand.Thank u very much...

Okay...so you're still on Opana and can get some Norco for withdrawal and take some klonopin.
You're off Methadone. Is that right?

This makes no sense to me so i guess I don't understand you...can you tell us a little clearer?Are you trying to avoid withdrawal from the OPANA by wanting to take Norco??

HI Welcome to the forum im a little confused you said your on 70ng of methadone opana  and out of meds......do you want to quit this mery go round or are you looking for a way to get by till your next refill ??? as for the withdrawals I dont think the norco is going to do much since your on the 2 strongest meds out there opana and methadone if you want to quite we can guild you along but thats going to be a ruff ride coming off that high of dose of methadone + the opana if your just looking to get by till your next refill the norco will give you some releve just not much it is always best to taper off the stronger meds I would talk to my doctoer about getting off them and have him set up a taper plan try your best to follow it its ezer said then done if you cant will take it from there if you just want to get off we can help you do that to right now start forcing the fluids and a hot bath goes a long way in releaving the symptoms post back to let us knowe your intentions good luck and God bless......Gnarly....I will check back later for your post....
