Joe, I am jumping on 12/26. Welcome to join me if you want a buddy, we can suffer together while making the best decision of our lives!
Hi honey:
Most of us get addicted to these pain pills. They'll ruin your life if you let them..and I applaud you for wanting to stop.
You can read thru all the posts here and here about what its like, but basically, yes, you're going to be sick for at least a week. It's a lot like having a bad flu where your stomach and bowels are messed up too. Its' only temporary, though, and it is SO worth it...
Pick a day, and just jump off of them. Flush all the extra's down the commode, and CUT OFF all your suppliers.
You gotta trust us that even though this is gonna suck for a bit, it is absolutely, positively the ONLY right thing to do. You can't live your life high on opiates...
Hugs honey..let us know how you're doing...

Hello and welcome to the forum. I would suggest the Thomas recipe. All the vitamins and minerals. This will not take away withdrawal but does help. Soon more people will be on to help with lots of experience and advice. I just wanted to respond.
