Going from the patch to oxy

[Denises1968]

I've been on the patch 50MG. Put one on every 2 days, been on the same dose for 12 yrs. my body is so used to it, it does nothing to pain anymore, I'm also on 8mg. Of Diluadid 3xday. Will I have with drawls going from the patch to the oxy? I used to be on OxyContin like 15 yrs ago, I got weaned off of the oxy too on the patch, I had no with drawls from the oxy, my dr. Slowly weaned me, no problem at all. This time, I'm going straight to the oxy from the patch, actually tonight I'm suppose to take my patch off and take my first oxy pill in the morning. Will I be feeling any with drawl? I also take Ativan 1mg. 3xday been on that for 25 yrs. also on phenergan 12mg. 3xday. I'm getting nervous! I really did not want to switch meds but the patch has stopped working and I'm miserable! Plus I got no side effects from the patch, no sleepiness, no high feeling...I hate taking all these pills! I wish I could try marijuana! That would be amazing to just have that, and get rid of all the pills! Then again, I'm not sure how it would work on my pain. Thanks! Any suggestions on how I might feel switching to the oxy from the patch, would be nice to know, either way, I will know tomorrow morning! Ugh! Thanks!
PS. I had wrote this yesterday in wrong form, I am going through the worst with drawls! 30mg is not even close to 50mg, of fentanyl! I've been taking an extra Ativan and Diluadid, but still am not that great! I hate having to be on this crap!! Should of just stayed with the patch, but it was not working after 12yrs! I guess I'll have to wait and hope my dr. Ups the OxyContin dose...  this sucks!

Sorry to hear that. I've been through opiate withdrawal as well, and it sucks! Worst 7 days of my life, when I was taken off of Fentanyl.  How are you feeling now?
