Hey yall,
Well i have been scripted opana 30s, and various benzos because of chronic kidney stones and a generous doctor. I just moved to Orlando for school, and wouldnt you know it, the craziest thing happend! Im 5 days (10 Opanas) short on my script. (Sarcasm) Gahh i cant believe i let myself get ahead... but anyways now im pretty screwed. Im facing 5 days of WDs. I know the drill... but its sad to say ive never even made it past the first 12 hours.:( Im pretty terrified because i suffer from serious anxiety and I know that plays a huge part in WDing. Can someone give me some advice? Oh and remember ive been taking about 70-100mg a day for 11 months and have never missed a day. Snorted as well. At least i know its only for five days... but what a five days it will be.

Any advice?
 
If your going to just resume your opiate usage after, I suggest you just go score some dope. Whats the point of going through wd for no reason?

You can also do some cwe on tylenol ones... It will hold the wd a fair amount actually. Be careful with how many you take though, cuz its a lot of caffiene. Any doctor will script you clonadine. Thats a good one!! uhm...

PREPARE FOR HELL!! :p

Day 7 CT off a really fucked up fentanyl habit here...
 
oh man, i feel really bad for you. 70-100mg of oxymorphone IN daily is going to SUCk even just for 5 days.

at this point i would seriously try to get some suboxone, methadone, or even some heroin. i normally would NOT reccomend heroin but you are going to be so fucking sick that i think just having some would be a good idea. if you are in florida your best bet is oxycodone. the shit is everywhere. fl is flooded with script opiate and consequently heroin is very rare/shitty.

suboxone would be best, but fucking grab anything before it hits.

oh, and yes you are correct, having anxiety issues certainly does affect WD. after going on lexapro for anxiety and depression i ran out of suboxone for a week and i didnt become suicidal like i used to when i would get sick in the past. having those issues it my anxiety and depression used to get so bad when i would be dopesick, now at least i dont feel like i have to blow my brains out.

on a side note, im thinking of trying lyrica. ive heard wonderful stuff about it and lexapro does not seem like ideal treatment for anxiety to me. it does help, but i think a gabnergic drug would be way way more helpful. i cant use benzos responsibly but christ on a stick do they make me feel WONDERFUL. from what ive heard lyrica is too good to pass up as far as my situation.
 
I wasn't taking as much Opana as you are and my dr gave me a way too low dose of Morphine because I said I wanted off all the opiates. Long story short...get off of the oxymorphone and stay off of it! Kidney stones will not be as painful as the WD from Opana. I am not trying to scare you just tell you that I wished I could die.
 
thanks everyone for the quick advice<3

the problem is i cant find ANYONE with anything to hold me over... it looks like this is going to be a cold turkey deal. If i can find something, i will get it lol.

On a side note... i am also prescribed lyrica for fibro, and i just took about 1000mg with 40mg of valium... if you havent tried lyrica in high doses it feels like sorta like a low dose of MDMA, and last time i took a bunch like this my body/addict clock got... reset? I have no idea why but the next morning i didnt need the opana. I even went a few days (amazing for me) without any opana.
So im hoping that i might get that fluke again! Anyone know why this may have happend before?
Thanks guys... im terrified!!!
 
dude go get a bunch of tylenol 1's do a cwe. It seriously works. I dont know how exactly.. cuz its only liek 300mg of codeine max, but its held the most ridiculous habits ive had. It even held this last fent habit at times!

just remember that 300mg of codeine is like drinking 4-5 cups of coffee! lol have some benzos on hand. I could always handle that much coffee though... dont ask :p
 
Friend, I have been there many times. Not with oxymorphone, but with tramadol. And many here will tell you tramadol withdrawal is not a game. I remember reading about an ex-heroin addict who used tramadol to get off of heroin, but had a tougher time getting through tram w/d than the heroin w/d.

Running out early happens. I do it a lot. In fact, I am running out early 3 days early this month. I even made a thread about it. However, I did find some hydrocodone to help me out, but it's not going to help much.

If you have to do cold-turkey (trust me, I've been there plenty of times and will be again) for a few days here is some sound advice:

- For the exploding shits, take Imodium (loperamide). It does wonders for the diarrhea.

- Try, try, try to find a benzo. They don't take away w/d, but will stop most of the shaking and general restlessness and anxiety.

- If you can't find a benzo, some people use OTC sedatives such as Benadryl (diphenhydramine), Dramamine (dimenhydrinate), Unisom (doxylamine). But some people report that it makes their restlessness worse.

- Marijuana! I don't smoke it anymore, but when I would run out tramadol early and have to face withdrawal, smoking bud did wonders.

- Try, try, try to stay positive. It's incredibly difficult during withdrawal. Look on the bright side, tolerance drops extremely quickly during withdrawal. Those 5 days will pass slowly, but they will pass. And by day 5 you may even be feeling better anyway.

Good luck, friend. Withdrawal is very painful as you probably already know. And if you're really taking the oxymorphone for pain (ouch! kidney stones) then that can makes things worse, too.
 
Benzos and weed would help a LOT.

Last time I did serious w/d, I just wanted to curl up and die. If I were you I'd save whatever you currently have other than your opana (lyrica, etc) for those days you're going to be out. The lyrica would at least help you sleep a bit.
 
Split what Oxymorph you got left equally over the days so at least you have some in your system that may help a lot!
 
yah benadryl makes my restlessness so horrible!!

^This has been my experience as well. In fact, benedryl has given me RLS even when I wasn't w/d'ing.

NyQuil can give me some relief though, maybe you could try just a little to see how it works?

Hang in there, bro- try to get out and take some long walks if you can. Those have really helped me in the past.
 
luckily now its only 4 days and my dad is a saint. he is ex military and he got wounded a long time ago and had to have major back sugery so he gets Opana ER 20s from the VA. I told him about what happened and he hooked me up with two of his 20s. I LOVE MY DAD!!!! <3
And I must have amazing Karma because i looked all over my floor to see if anything dropped and I FOUND A 10mg OPANA IR!!!!! I banged it, so with a valium on top of that i should make it through to the 3rd day. I dont IV very often but lets face it... if there is ever a time that was it haha.
I also have two 10mg valiums and three 2mg xanax bars.

So now the 4th day is almost over, and like said i should make it to the 3rd day.
There may be hope!!

If you were taking that much lyrica chances are it didn't reset anything. The lyrica alone can sometimes kill 80-90% of wds for certain people. It happens a lot if you read stories about people kicking large opiate habits with lyrica, where they claim it removed nearly all of their wds symptoms.

So if you HAVE LYRICA. TAKE IT lol.
You can get through the wds alone with lyrica, which is precisely why I ordered a whole bunch to kick my habit. Its a much more valuable med for opiate detox than people understand.
 
Would Neurontin (gabapentin) mitigate withdrawal in a similar manner to Lyrica (pregablin)?

It's Monday 2:31AM and I can not sleep due to tramadol withdrawal. I have a few tramadol left and I am saving them for this afternoon. I took 20mg of hydrocodone yesterday instead. It sucked. The first couple of hours were blissful. Then I was left feeling depressed, lethargic, and mini-tram withdrawal due to short half-life of hydrocodone.

Today will be my last good tramadol dose until Thursday and if gabapentin is great for withdrawal like pregabalin, I will take gaba instead of hydrocodone on Tuesday and Wednesday. Only bad thing is I only have six or seven gabapentin capsules and they are 100mg.
 
Bumping for my above question ^

I am also quite curious how the original poster is doing.
 
at least u get prescribed something for ur chronic pain. i drag myself to work and then lay at home all day in agony and do it all over again.

Remember it could be worse.
