Have question bout W/Ds

by Penny4everypill, Nov 23, 2007 07:39PM

Ok,I'm new to the board, but have been reading lots of stuff....an u guys seem to know what yer talkin about. So my question is, I have been on 5-325 percs for about a month.....I had surgery,,,I was on methadone before the surgery & had to stop because I couldnt work. SO I had the percs to get through the methadone w/ds now I ran outta my percs & cant see the doc till next wenesday..
If I take a tramdol will that help my bodyaches & chills?? I havent had any perc'sin 2 days and feelin pretty bad right now. I'm freezin my azz off...and feel like ****. So just wondering if the tramadol would help alittle. I got tylenol PM for sleep cause I cant sleep either...
Thanks for any help...

Are you trying to get off the pills ? Tramadol will probaly take away alittle, but if you are trying to get clean it will just postpone it.

Are you trying to stop taking pain pills or are you just trying to get by until your next refill??

by Penny4everypill, Nov 24, 2007 09:54AM

well to be honest, I have had a problem with pain pills for 9 yrs....so when I go back to the doc next week, I know she will give me more, but I'm geting better from the surgery, so I really dont need them.Its just the POWER to say NO TY...but heck If I can go 5 days without them (today day 3) feel like someone beat me up....I feel so bad. need to clean my house,...but I just cant. I have a daughter whos 9 yrs old. I think maybe I'll just say its the flu, because I cant go through this and try to live, not this week. I did try to take a vitamin, but cant keep anything down. The tramadol did help my backaches last night and the tylenol pm worked, But Lord please just get me through this day.
God bless ya'll

You're in the home stretch...if your goal is to quit-well you made it this far so tough it out and kick the habit. Day 3 is ALWAYS the worst for me. If you can make it through today you are solid.
Keep posting-it helps to be able to talk to people that understand the wd's and how bad they are.
