I'm not withdrawing from oxy....but from dilaudid.  I am about 6 or 8 days in.  I got cramps, diarreah, threw up, achy muscles and the worst was the way I was shaking.  ALeve works for pain, immodium for the stomach....what helped me the most on my very worst days (3-5>) was just to talk  at this forum....people here have all gone thru it....Just hold on.....I am a fat 65 year old grandmother with all kinds of medical problems.....you are a strong young man....Just grit your teeth and thank God you will will not die from an OD.   Love  Jerrri

hey skiddy, is it possible for you to get to a doctor to talk to him about depression. it seems that depression and addiction coincide with each other and if you fixed the one problem, then maybe both could be fixed. just a thought, but nobody should have to suffer with depression, there are things that can be done for it.
