I had a strange experience myself.... I went 3-4 days without any oxycodone meds. Dr was out actually and noone covers for him so I had to tough it out a few days..... to be honest I was surprised because at 12am Sat night it was 24hrs without anything...felt crappy but not unbearable....12am Sunday night was 48hrs without anything...felt crappy still and felt kinds bummed out or depressed....had a few cases of the runs that night. 12am Monday was 60hrs without anything.... had the runs more often but was not achy or sore as I thought I would be still depressed though. Got refills on Tuesday and all was right with the world again (joking).......
anyways not sure why but I thought I'd be really really really sick after a few days without anything cuz I do take 120-150mgs a day for pain control. The only thing I can think of is that.....
I was totally out of meds for that SAT/SUN and MON but before that I took about 60-80 mgs on Mon,Wed & Fri so maybe that helped I am not sure.
