Thanks so much for your comments and advice, I think she was trying to work out what was caused by her pain and what was caused by her stopping the Oxycontin. I will pass on the info and seeing she is going to a dietician this week I will get her to ask what kind of foods and vitamins she can take with her other meds. Many thanks again.
20-40 mg is not a susper high dose..perhaps it will only last 4 or 5 days and wont be real severe...everyone is different...like i did have the runs but no sleep problems...be safe
Hi there,
Welcome here. You've come to the right place.
Withdrawal symptoms from pain killers will be very similiar to the worst flu anyone's ever had. Going cold turkey, she will experience the following:
Body aches (more than usual)
The runs for days
No appetite & possible vomiting
Skin Crawling
Restless Leg Syndrome
Sneezing & Coughing
Extreme Anxiety
No sleep for a long time
and more
Everyone is different. This varies from the length of time using and the amount of daily use.
Please check into the health pages at the top right. There are vitamins, aminos & meds to help her through this.
Please feel free to ask more questions.
Best Wishes.:
