norco addiction

Thank you so much for all of your help last night. I went to the doctor early this morning and thanks to my heavy weight I actually put myself under the toxicity level. I flushed the rest of my medication and it took all of the strength in my body to do it!! I have restless legs so bad that I have to take the hottest showers every 1/2 hour, and I feel like such a mess, my emotions are so up and down, and already I just want to call the doctor for anything, does it get better soon? does it get worse? can anyone please help tell me how to get through it!!! I have to stop I have two very young kids I want to be better for them.

I know how their actions/reactions with you made you feel, because I was there once as well with my PCP that was writing me for Percocet every other week or less. When I approached them about my addiction, they shut the door in my face and left me high and dry with everything. Like you, I thought I deserved it after what I'd done to myself as well as the people around me, etc. However...like avisg stated, nobody walks on water! You don't deserve that sort of treatment, so just move on from the mistake and go from there. The best thing I ever did was went through the detox from home, saw through the WDs and then sought out a new PCP Monday morning. I went and saw her and was completely honest with her about everything. It was more or less me needing/wanting someone to talk to and see what could be done for me to actually try and deal with the physical pain [that remains now that the pills are gone] and she is now working with me on this, which is more than what I thought I deserved after being an addict to Percocet. She's been the first person to date [other than the members here and my amazing hubby] to make me feel like I'm nothing less than human, even after battling an addiction. I'm over 70 days sober from the pills because of people like this. It only makes you stronger in the end, and I am VERY glad to hear that all is okay with you. You're here for a reason -- remember that.

You have an amazing support system here with the members on the forums. This site will become your saving grace, as it has become this way for me. Keep us updated on how everything is for you, and know that we're all here for you!!

I saw urgent care because I had to make sure I didn't overdose from the tylonol. they told mr to taper off of them but I had flushed them because i'm just not strong enough to take just one every 10 hours like they said. But they made me feel like a junkie by the attitude and the lack of information,  like they just wanted me out of their office, which I deserve, i guess, That Reaction was the exact reason I was so scared to go to the doctor to begin with.
