Could these be symptoms of withdrawal?

So I was taking Lortab for a broken collarbone and stopped cold turkey on Feb 12th. I had started to get really hungry. Nothing would fill me up. About three days after that, I became extremely fatigued, but I eventually woke up and enjoyed the rest of the day. While in class, my legs began to cramp. When I got to my room, the cramping intensified, soon turning into full body pains. It was a mix of spasms and a crawling sensation. I got scared and went to the ER. They told me my potassium levels were low, and the nurse mentioned the hydrocodone but didn't tell me any connection it had with my symptoms. The next day, I was super anxious, hungry but had no appetite. I was dizzy (probably due to the potassium imbalance and no food consumption), crying, lack of concentration/confusion. Today marks the 9th day of this situation. The excessive hunger has gone away, and the cramps have subsided. They still come and go. But the anxiety and crying are still here. I'm sorry that this is so long, but has anyone who stopped taking Lortab go through this? Thanks!

Sounds like withdrawal to me. How long were you taking them? I'm not familiar with the hunger symptom, but the crawling sensation in your muscles, and the emotional liability, as well as fatigue, are all symptoms of withdrawal.

Unfortunately physical tolerance and dependence can happen fairly rapidly - even when using the drug as prescribed. I hope you're doing better. Blessings!
