I have been reading some of the posts here and I think this is great. I will get right to the point. I have been addicted to Norco for nearly three years now. I just went through rehab about three weeks ago but due to severe stomach pain, I started taking the pills again. Before detox I was taking over 30 a day and now I am at about 16 to 18. I want to go cold turkey but I am not sure it is safe and cannot really ask for help from any doctors due to disability issues. Is it dangerous to go cold turkey and will it be as bad as it was in rehab? I have Xanax and Clonidine patches as well as Zofran for stomach. Am I making a big mistake or should I taper? Taper doesn't seem to work for me and I want this over with. My girlfreind can't know I am back on the pills or she will leave and she is out of town for a week or so. Can anyone give me any advice on this? I am really not sure what to do. How bad and how long will this last? It only took about 3 days in rehab until after 2 days after detox my stomach got severe pain and I had to go to ER. I don't want to go through that all again and I was thinking since I just got out of rehab it might not be so bad or am i wishful thinking. Thanks for any reply.
