What to expect ??

[jaxbaby]

I am back to the drawing board. Good Lord.  I completely went off lorcet for a few months and went back on due to medical issues (as many),. NOW ... I am wondering how bad withdrawals will be for me with taking 4 - 5 a day for a month.  ISH .. Anyone ??? I realize to some this may not seem like alot but to a "newbie" I just do not know what to expect and could use any support I need. I am going to taper.  This really is a beautiful website!

Jax..what kind of chronic pain have you got?You will have to be prepared to take otc or something for the pain or you will keep going back to the narcs.I know that once the rebound pain of narcotics wore off,I am able to control my chronic pain with otc's and I actually have less pain now than when I took opiates.

You can always read the Health Pages when you perceive the forum to be slow - - there is a lot to be said for actually reading the information and the experiences of other members with varying amounts of free time obtained through a ton of different stories and styles.   And then using the forum for questions and support .........

I would love to hear more peoples input if you would be so gracious to comment on this it would be greatly appreciated, I know I get ancy waiting for answers but it is the only support that I have.

This is what I would do:   Start over cold turkey~flush what's left.  Tapering is way too hard and you can ct safely from this amt.  Yes,you'll feel it but might not be for as long.  Get everything you need~you know the drill...

Keep posting...you can do this...it's totally doable!

Thank you! I appreciate that. I know in the past that I have been slow to get answers and have actually had to come back and re-post. I try not to take it personal but it is hard. Hopefully after work people look on here. I really do want some type of idea of what to expect. I have been reading your posts as well... My best to you --- we are in this together and it *****.  I am also struggling with the fact that my pain is ongoing.

  I guess this might be a slow time for this forum? I don't know, I just joined!
   Unfortunately, I can't answer your actual question-but-I didn't want you going unanswered at all.
   I'm personally struggling with a multiple opiate addiction-mainly vic's. I'm getting ready to detox, and was very glad to hae come across this site too!
   So best of luck to you-were all in this together!
