Withdrawls? No way? Ya way?

Hi everyone just to catch you up or fill you in as it may be I had kidney surgery almost two months ago was in hospital for ten days any way I was taking differant meds at differant times since then most recently perks 5 mg between 2-3 per day streched out aprox... Every four hours not very much right 3 pills a day ! so now I am done was a good girl took as needed plus my doc is crystal meth so thankfully it wasn't hard for me! I haven't  taken any for almost two days now , in a little pain but it's ok I do feel moody and my arms and legs feel squirmmy I am tired but can't seem to rest. It is kind of mild compaired to what I see people post but bugs me none the less . It doesn't seem to me that I should be feeling this?what do you think?

Usually it lasts for about a week but you may not feel it for that long as you were on a low dose.  This will probably be more of a pain in the arse than anything.  Being grumpy wont last........sara

My tumor was cancerus I will be tested in two months for any sign of it returning. It was about the size of a grapefruit and it hung of the end of my right kidney so I lost only about 1/8 of my kidney in the surgery as the kidney it's self is healthy I am 36  and am glad I was already clean and sober so I could do what needed to be done. If I was still using I wouldn't even know about it as I was always running and I don't mean jogging. Anyway how long will this last ? I am so grumpy?
