Hello,
I was prescribed 120, 10/325 hydrocodone and it reads to take 1 every 6 hours as needed for pain. I have not been taking them as prescribed. However, I haven't taken more than 4 a day. I have been taking 2 at a time twice a day. I have 9 hydrocodone left.
It has been just about 48 hours since my last dose. I have been experiencing some, what I think may be withdrawals. I have been feeling a little but of nausea, but I haven't gotten sick. I have, however, have been to the bathroom 4 times in as many hours. My lower back is killing me, but it is hard to tell if this is part of it because I remember the exact time and the exact action that caused the back pain.
Now, as I wrote earlier, I have 9 hydrocodone left. Should I just try to tough it out, or can I try a "quick" taper? Toughing it out could be rough because my wife has no idea.
I also have a lot of tramadol, flexiril (sp?...muscle relaxer) and Xanax. Will any of those help, or should I just leave those alone?
Thank you in advance for all responses, advice, help and possible tapering scheduled.
