How long does hydrocodone stay in the system?

[blessed2]

I have been off painkillers for about 2 weeks and still get the chills and diarrea. Is this still the remainence of the hydro? If so are there any ways to cleanse my system besides water? Thank you for this forum. I really enjoy reading all the support people give each other.

I have become addicted to Norco. My husband and I are both addicted. I don't know what to do. I'm taking Norco for Arthritus and a torn rotator cuff. I'm totally crying reading your stories right now and I too want to quit so bad. I'm a mom and I don't want to be on this emtional roller coaster anymore. My husband takes twice as much as me. WE BOTH HAVE A SCRIPT and we share. When he's running low he will take the last 10 and hide them from me. I'm so desperate I know I need to quit. I need help. I can't do this anymore. I have become angry becuase I know each time I take one of those evil bastards it's going to be harder for me to quit..............................................Crying right now!

Hi everyone  ive spent the last couple hours reading  about everyones experiences.im a norco addict ive been using for about 5 years it all started after a hernia surgery and then escalated from there .ive had some issues in my life that have caused alot of depression and lonliness also.it seemed to be a miracle drug for me  at the beginning atleast .i was able to quit drinking and it made the time pass and made me happy until i suffered the first withdrawls.it took me a while to figure out what the problem was. but to make a long story short im using way to much and im starting a taper tomarrow morning.i live alone and the depression and lonliness kills me during withdrawl i have been taking 10 at a time and it barely does anything for me .i have tapered before but always with a very limited amount and way to fast. this time im going to take it slow starting at 5 tomarrow morning and evening and 4 the next day and evening and then three the next day .and i think i can handle that. but will have to stay at 3 for atleast a week  and then go to 2 etc .im on 10-325   then i have some 5-500 i plan on using after that .i want the withdrawls to be minimum. i have done it before sometimes cold turkey after 15 at once .i have to get my life back and it seems like there is alot of people here who care so if anyone would like to talk to me and help me thru it i would greatly appreciate it. i was going to check in to detox monday morning but decided i will do it this time .i have quit before once for 11 days and once for 15  .i know its not my drs fault but he just keeps feeding my habit i mean addiction.i have bad neck problems and need surgery but  i can handle the pain without narcs i just want them . but i am finished with the wasting of my life .i need to stop now    good luck to everyone else and congrats to everyone who has kicked it    Bill
