I know my reactions to withdrawals because I forgot to take my Avinza 3 times. Like the flu. A really, really bad case. I hit WD at about 30 - 34 hours.
I took Librium in 1970, but don't remember any problems. Hytrin? Dunno.
Dr. said to take my last Avinza capsule at 8am Monday, then take the Librium and Hytrin 24 hours later and 8 hours thereafter.
I read that withdrawal symptoms only last a few days to a week. After reading about Librium I was thinking I might prefer to just get it over with. Take Valium or something.
Suggestions appreciated....thanks... (Oh, I haven't set a date to do it yet, no hurry, once I am ready, I planned on taking my last pill Sunday morning, then I have 5 working days to be sick or get different meds or talk to the doctor again, etc.) |
Suboxone!!!!!! There are a hand full of Doctors that can help with that. Try and find one. I live in the chicago area and what happends is they have you drop your meds and once you have so many symptom they give you sumboxone. It is what I would call a miracle. Ther is no withdrawal from it. How long were you on the meds before? My question is what are they going to do for you after you are offf all of these Its been a month for me and have to say the pain levels are not good. Its been really hard. Is there something else they are going to do to help with the pain. Were in the same boat so may be we can help each other? Lori T.
