how am I doing?

6 months of 40-80 mg daily of oxycodone, recently did 2 weeks on suboxone, ran out and have been back on OC for 4 days, 40 mg daily.
I'm 24 hours clean now and feeling mild stomach discomfort, slight aches, a bit tired/depressed. Overall not too bad. Haven't started any otc meds - pain killers, anti-dirreah or benzos -ativan yet either. Anyone have any feedback on how much worse WD will get? I may use 5mg of oxycodone to continue a slow taper if things get too bad. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Re: how am I doing?

Hmm..In swim's opinion, the withdrawal might get a little worse before it gets better (swim would say, after 72 hours, swiy should be just fine). But this is just swim's experience from a similar experience as yours. When he was chipping mode he accidently used 4 days in a row. The withdrawals lasted about 3 days, but not terrible by any means. Just not "normal" not "fine".

However, perhaps it may be longer for swiy because of the bupenorphine (suboxone). It has a long withdrawal period if used long enough, but swim isn't sure if 2 weeks is long enough to get any real withdrawal symptoms from it. Could be wrong, though..
