If you are doing this on your own then you could run into problems. Tapering is tricky business and if you are not following a set plan you may be setting yourself up for relapse. I know it is tough and I could never get it done but if you are going to go this way, please get a plan.

I am glad you explained yourself. Thank you.

Withdrawals will make your stomach upset regardless of the drug. Staying hydrated will help a lot-try some Gatorade. Just be super careful tapering the tramadol, if not done properly it can cause a seizure. Vic you should just CT. It ***** but it's not deadly and it's better to just get it over with.
Best of luck!!!!!!

Hi joey....you didn't say enough in this post so I think you may have been misunderstood.

You are taking hydrocodone and tramadol and trying to wean down right?
Are you doing one drug at a time?  Since you were only taking 2 trams, I'd tackle that drug first.  Are you able to get any help with a taper plan from your dr?

If your overall health is good, it is totally feasible to do this at home.  You just have to have a plan.  Many things can help your tummy right now. (the water is good for ALL things right now...very important to flush and hydrate)  Imodium or pepto are both good for tummy issues.... and both the drugs you are on are opioids and we have opiate receptors in our guts.  That is one place we usually get hit hard when we wean down and/or w/draw.

Let us know more specifically where you are at in this process and we'll help you all we can~
