vicodin withdrawl

i was taking 7-12 vicodins a day for 2 1/2 years.. i quit taking them 9 days ago, worst part of WD's are over but im still gettin the goosebumps, sweating during the day and at night, the sweating isnt as bad as it was but its still there, i am also still having to use the bathroom everytime i eat something and still craving vicodin. How long will the sweating and all that last? im doing pretty good for myself but just wondering when i will be normal again.

If you have not tried it....use Imodium for a day or two and see if it helps.  Try to go non generic.  It helps with potty trots and can help with some withdrawals.

Congrats on doing so well.

  I am over 35 days and still have a craving or two.  I have found if I eat something....grapes, crackers, etc. it seems to help settle down the cravings.
