Go see your doctor about this. Better off getting pro advice because all will say that here. Good luck

I agree with Act10npack...seek medical advice BEFORE you are stuck on a Sunday alone while doctors are all out on the golf course.
Great intentions but be smart.

Welcome teetee22 - Good for you for deciding to stop the pain meds. You can do it. I was really scared when I decided to quit drinking, but am so glad I did. There's a lot of us out there going through the same thing and this is a great place to get support.:ghug3

Also, check out the section for substance abuse:Substance Abuse - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

(I hope you can see a doctor, too. Detoxing is different for everyone.)

Hi Teetee

Some good advice here.
I recommend getting a professional opinion for any kind of withdrawal
