Day one off Oxycodone 30mg

My drug of choice was oxycodone 30mg tablets. I never used too much over a month period. I have not used in 30 hours and feel normal. Nothing has been that bad. Can I assume that I will be okay? or could I take an aweful turn in wd symptoms? I would just like to know so I can prepare. I know you need to know how much and for how long (one to two 30mg tablets a day for about three weeks or so.) I typically have taken a day of two off a week. I don't plan on using these anymore, it was prescribed them after I hurt my back and I flushed them down the toilet now. I have withdrawl very badly before so I wanted to stop while I was ahead. I remeber I felt terrible on day one last time so I dont know how my body will react.

i used to use roxy(same thing as you) to and i can say that i dont know why but when i used to use percocet and lorcet i used to feel withdrawals pretty bad at 24 hours and by day three or four they would start getting better and then of course i started taking more and more and i guess i was at least thinking somewhat about my health when i decided to start buying roxies instead of the percs or sets because i was scared i was taking to much tylenol wasnt worried bout the huge amount of oxy for some reason thats the addict in me but neway back to the subject of withdrawals so when i went into withdrawal from the roxy i was the same way day one and two werent actually that bad and i thought shoot this isnt gonna be to bad but then day three came and it hit the fan and i was in full blown withdrawals that were worse than they were with the percs and sets im sure thats not what you wanted to hear but that is how it was for me i dont know why it was different from the percs to the roxies but it def was well sorry to give you this info cause im sure thats not waht you wanted to hear but u should at lelast know what to expect cause it is probably going to get a good bit worse but dont let that stop you because the worst of it is over in 7-10 days but then again everyone is different and maybe it wont be to bad for you and i hope that is the case and hope the best for you well be strong and keep posting

Good Luck and Godspeed

U may have expected worse than what will happen....were u taking oxycontin or oxycodone?
ur dose was not massive...it may be better than u think so hold onto that...not everyone suffers like another cos we r all different...and alot of this is what u "think" u will experience..if u expect the best...often the bst is what u will get!
hang tight and keep posting

Let's see......watery eyes, diarrhea, sneezing, yawning, aching joints and muscles, sweating but freezing at the same time, goose bumps, restlessness, agitation, anxiety, insomnia by nighttime, nausea, headache......

One, two or all of the above!!! : )  There are probably more, but those came to mind first.  Usually you would have some symptoms by this time.  You said 30 hrs or so, right?  By 24 hours I would think you could feel some symptoms, unless you were on something like methadone with a long half life.  

If you feel completely normal, you should be ok.  You might have some light symptoms by tomorrow, but also, maybe not!!!

Those little "blues" pack a big punch huh!!  BUT, the withdrawals from them pack an even bigger punch, not to mention that the punch generally knocks you on your butt when the w/d's hit. My point......if you've gone 30 hours without any problems, I'd say three things. You're probably in the clear, you're incredibly lucky, and thank God!!!  I think that you stopped in time to ward off any w/d's, and the duration of use and quantity you took helped greatly with that. Great job for using them as prescribed, and/or only as needed, and knowing you needed to stop before it became a nightmare. Congrsts on your 30 hours and the strength to flush them. Very impressive!!  Good luck to you. Seems to me your life will be smooth sailing from here on out, as you recognize a problem before it actually even becomes one. Good for you!!  Love to hear success stories such as yours, as it gives hope to those of us still struggling along.
