Hydrocodone withdrawal

What are the withdrawal symptoms from Hydrocodone and how long will they last?  I've been taking 1 or 2 10-325s a day  for about a year for knee pain and quit a few days ago.  I'm suffering from nausea that lasts from the time I wake up in the morning until about 12:00 noon.  And I still don't feel well even then.  I would really appreciate this information, as I'm starting to think there is something seriously wrong with me.  Thank you!

hydro is one of the weaker narcotics but the WD's still can suk. It should only take about 5 days or so to get through it and you shouldn't need to go on sub or methadone. all the best

Have you had a check-up lately? How is your health?  There are no physical problems like with the heart or anything?  
Just wanta make sure that's all

Nausea could very well be a sign of withdrawl, but really it usually goes along with diahreah,chills,body aches, headache,rls,insomnia ect.  Just nausea by itsself tho is something that I'm unaware of.
Withdrawls usually last 4-5 days perhaps a day or two longer.
I hope others will come along soon to add some of their thoughts.

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, shakes, cold sweats, goosebumps, muscle aches, anxiety - there's a long list of possibilites for opiate wd. You haven't been taking very many so the nausea you're experiencing should be short-lived, 3-5 days. You'll likely feel a bit run down and drained for a few weeks following that but it should be tolerable. Try starting a multivitamin and possibly some exercise to get your endorphins flowing.
