ultram detox

[jonandbrandi]

I have decided to quit tramadol cold turkey. I have been on it for 3 or 4 years now, and I am down to 450 mgs a day. I have been through withdrawel before, but only for a couple of days and it was hell. I hate this drug. I am a wife and mother of three and I know they have suffered from it. I plan to have a goood weekend with my family and monday is the beginning. My husband says he will be there for me and take care of me. I am so afraid. I would love any advice that I could get. I am so greatful to everyone else here who have been so open and honest. That has helped me so much. Thanx

My husband told me not to worry about that, we will get what I need. So any info on a taper plan would be great. Thanx

My husband got laid off from his job about a month ago. I really wanted to not spend the money. I have some hard decisions to make.  Thanx so much.

Thank you all so much. I will check back a few times over the next few days and try to keep commenting on how it goes.

It's great that you have support, and I wish you all the best. Until I got to this site, I had no idea that this drug was addictive ... keep us posted, please.

Tramadol is alittle different from other opiates. You can have seizures when stopping abruptly. I know I did. Of course tapering is the best idea but if you go ct be aware of this. Of course consulting a doctor would be recommended. Please be careful.
Best wishes

I forgot to add that I plan to use the thomas recipe, but instead of valium or xanax I will use an over the counter med such as unisom or benadryl.
