Tapering is tough..congrats on being able to do it!
Can be a drawn out process for some, when CT is over physically in a week or usually less...but if u r disciplined and dont get the urge to cheat all the ime//then more power to ya!  (:

Oxycodone is sposedly a bit stronger than hydrocodone.  I found the same thing tho...I got more of a jump start from hydros.  Not sure of the reason and could be everyone's chemical make up is different

good luck and keep moving forward

LOL...well, to be honest, you are right..i have this plan in my head that when i have a week off (4 weeks away) then, i will "jump" :) i have a really good, BUT, high pressure job and i don't want to "jones" there. I plan on being down to 2 (or less) by then. and as you say....IM GONNA JUUUUUUUUUMP :)

Having fun with the space bar are you? LOL

At 3 pills a day why don't you just jump off? Tapering at this point seems like you're dragging it out, no?
