It really depends on how much oxy you were taking. When I came off a large oxy habit the physical symtoms were really bad for about 2 weeks before they started to get better. You said ''back and forth for the past two years" - what do you mean? Were you taking the sub to prevent oxy use, then relapsed - or were you taking the sub so you wouldn't wd from the oxys?
