man you can do it. I was at 15-20 loratab 10s a day or more if i could get. Day 3 is always bad for me, i have  been tryin now for 8 days day 3 and 6 i messed up so tomorrow is day 3 again. It is hard but it is doable, if you can get a hold to something to help you sleep even tylanol pm you are gona need it. Energy of course well be a concern but man i had to work a 12 hour shift my first day of cold turkey after 2.5 years and then turn around next day and do a 15 hour shift. Yes i have felled so prob not the best one to be talkin but tomorrow I WILL MAKE it past day 3 then it be mostly mental. Just be prepared. Get your bed confortable, get everything you need for a few days, rent movies, plan on takin lots of warm baths, and maybe(others might disagree with this, but we all disagree about ****) get you some over counter energy pills to take in the mornings. Try to do as much as you can every day, and if you make it to the 14 when you get that next script man refuse it, it might be hard but man oh man what a rush it gives you to be in controll enough to say * I dont need those anymore, thanks doc*, i just flused over 80 10s the other day and yes for a moment i was sick but all of a sudden i got a high out of that. You can do it, i will be here tomorrow to soppurt you

Your life will be so much better, and your body healthy...I was addicted to lortabs, and quit at taking 20, 10mg a day...So i was killing my liver..I am not sure how much APAP is in 5mg, but at 20, that is toxic....Praying for you!!
