I was on morphine- 60 MG, 3/day for chronic back pain for 3 months. I lost my Pain Management doctor, and now can only get percocet- 10-650...5 a day. I want to quit cold terkey!!! I cannot afford a DETOX TREATMENT. I need to know how long the withdrawals are expected to last, and what to take-over the counter, thats not addictive in itself, that will help until the withdrawals are gone. I have been addicted to heroine before and quit cold terkey in 8 hellacious days... Is this going to take longer, is it worse withdrawal-wise, and what can I do to lesson the withdrawals, if anything. I was a mixed martial arts fighter for 5 years, and have terrible back and shoulder pain, but can tolerate the pain, more easily than the dependancy. Help me, any one, if you can answer these questions. Thanks.
