are they as bad as methadone, if you ever did methadone? I,l be down to 10mgs from 30mgs witch was started in Dec 2015..my 1st drop was 10mgs 14 days by old doc.wasnt to bad chills 5 days. Next drop was 5 mgs 10 days same chills. Then I had to drop them due to my Medicare deductible..I have to pay my docs full payment till ded met..so I,m on my own, but I've got plenty of meds to do this. He gave me 2 scripts to help me out. All he was doing was dicking me around. You get 1 that wants to help.

Be very glad you're not on methadone. As the other response stated, it has an extremely long duration. Oxycodone produces some pretty nasty chills upon withdrawal, so this is normal. You'll also lack energy, feel weak, possibly depressed and listless, sweat, feel anxious and just bad in general. You have the tools you need to get off this stuff. I've found it useful to find out the minimal amount it takes to alleviate discontinuation symptoms.. Usually about 2/3 of your usual dose. Just keep increasing your dose intervals...and decreasing the dose every few days.  Let yourself be uncomfortable for awhile, then take just enough to feel some relief. It'll take some time but with determination, willpower and a plan...you'll be off the stuff with minimal discomfort. My own note, quitting suddenly has you pretty much bedbound for 2 to 3 days but you bounce back pretty quickly. Where as the slow taper allows you to stay functional and feeling decent but it takes longer to reach your goal. I personally recommend tapering; it's much easier on your brain and body.
    Also, at 6mg of Xanax a day, this should help the anxiety associated with quitting Percocet. Just listen to your body and do your taper nice and slow!
