I take 2 to 4 a day. I have pills in my purse and refills Iif I want them. I just dont see anything good coming out of this situation. I have the best husband but im so scared to admit it. That would mean he would monitor me and my euphoria would end. Sound weird?
Oh no listen to atthebeach, I thought you were on pain pills! I'm sorry!
and yes, atthebeach is right, i forgot to mention, with fioricet you need to taper and talk to your doctor for help with this!
Honestly, no, I don't think you can stop and then still take them for migraines. I think that you'll have to find alternative ways to deal with the migraines, and the board is a little slow right now but there are tons of people on here with legit pain that manage without narcotics, and they can give you tons of advice.
To start with, look at the bottom of this page and you'll see the Thomas Recipe. Pick up all of the vitamins/supplements (I substituted valerian root for valium), gatorade, water, saltine crackers, bananas (for RLS), and Ensure. Also, get some epsom salt and plan on taking baths often (especially the first 48 hrs). Those were my life savers during detox. You'd probably be surprised with how supportive you husband would be if he sees the effort you're putting forth. I told my husband I had the flu when I was going through w/ds and he was great at helping with our daughter while I felt bad. I recently told him the truth and he was amazing.
You can do this. There is a TON of support on here. I couldn't have done it (well at least not as easily) without the people here. I'm here for you. You can do this...I see so many jump from the pill ship on here everyday and after a couple of days they are posting their happy stories. You've got this!
Hi and welcome....i agree with Happy that this road you are on will take you down fast...to a dark place that 's hard to come up from....please talk to a doctor or addiction specialist about what you are feeling as far as how they make you feel...that's the problem with opiates, they make you feel euphoric and want more and more....that's the addiction/dependence pushing you to take more and more for that same feeling....stop now before it gets any worse...you will be so glad you did...trust me, i was on hydros for many years and it's no picnic to get off them....but you can do it if you put a plan into place...and you don't want to get caught doctor shopping, pharmacies and doctors now have a national database in alot of states that can track your rx's and visits, whether it's insurance or not....good luck with this, and now is the time to stop. I wish you nothing but the best!!
how many are you taking a day? you cant stop the fioricet cold turkey.
they are barbiturate and that csan cause seizures.
also if you are taking high amounts each day you might be taking a lot of Tylenol.
do you have pills left?
