Roxicet Withdrawals how long does it last???

[stayorleave41]

Hubby & I both have been addicted to the 30 mg roxicet, snorting them, 1-3 a day, him for the last year and a half, me for the last 7 months. He was prescribed them for severe pain but it wasn't long before we both were abusing them. Today is the 2nd day no roxis, or oxys. We have each been taking a small perc in the morning and a .5 mg xanax for the anxiety. What is the worst of this? How long is this going to last? Even having the small dosage of percocet we still feel awful. Sneezing, cold one minute, hot the next, fatigue, insomnia, stomach issues.....He works full time and I am home w/ 2 young children so we have to have energy and keep going. I wish we could both just lay down and get through this. Just curious as to how other people got through this and is there anything else I can do to ease the w/d? Fate intervened, funny how that works, we made a wrong turn in our neighborhood and there was a woman on the ground screaming she was having a heart attack and I got the info from her that she was doing 40 mg oxys. Wake up call, funny how that works huh?

You do not sound pathetic in the least bit, from  what ive researched it can last a while depending on metal strength but most intense withdrawl symptoms last  up to 2 weeks minumum, im on my second day off of 2-3 30mg roxys a day and am continuing to be in horrible pain and dealing with all others symptoms.
good luck friend it is a horrible drug.

Ok, so your in a rush for answers..Look for Me1025 and QRSED's posts..Roxy wd's are the same as it is an oxy based med..They both are 2 or 3 days into the withdrawals..Read the posts .Everything you want to know is there...

Im 17 and this is my second day of being of 2-3 30mg roxicet a day. I have horrible pains in the back of my(sort of a pulling feeling), horrible stomach pains, nausea, shaking, fever, and for about a week or two i have been sweating all night everynight even if i do manage to sleep. I will sleep with all fans on, windows open, anything to relieve this sweat but same thing every morning, coverd in sweat and in horrible pain. I need help, i dont know what to do, im in so much main i cant take it anymore and need a way out, this had driven me to finding anything i can to take my mind off the pain, even if only for a little while. I am in school right this second dealing with this and itis very stressfull, the littlest thing can set me off in a bad mood twards someone and even i realize im being rediculously over mad i guess. Any advice is appreciated, i thank all of you, plz help me.

I dont know what to do..My girlfriend is going through this for the second time. I told her this is the last time. I freaked out the first time and wasn't there to help her through her withdrawal, but I promised to be here this time. It is so hard,I hate seeing her in so much pain and I just wish there was something I could do to ease it. She can be so mean though...the way she can treat me while shes taking them and now while trying to get clean is just crazy. How long will she be going through this?? And does it ever actually work for anyone with out relasping?? Like I said shes already relasped once...But on day 3 she was already arguing with me...saying she doesnt see a problem with doing them here and there..and how she doesn't like be controled "by me" But I won't stay if this happenes again...I can't

does anyone ever stay off these roxys. After you go thru cold turkey withdrawl, is it possible to stay off for good
