Norco, Take 2, 7 5 Mg Tabs A Day

I was in a bad accident 13 years ago and broke a lot of bones, some badly. A lot of them are displaced and never healed back together. There are like 24 fractures including pelvic fractures and scapula. They move, pop, stick out and my collar-bone bends in the middle where a non union bone is. Even with 2 norco 7.5 325 I haven't been able to sleep on my back since the wreck. I take one in the late morning and one in the evening. I go 18-19 hours every day intentionally between evening and morning dose. I am feeling pretty rough by then. Is that withdrawals I'm having? I have always taken less than prescribed and been at 2 a day for a long time, years. I have never abused it and never felt high from it, only less pain but not gone. Have always had a prescription for it.

I'm having a problem with Doctors. How bad do I have it and how long will it take for me to get over the dependence and know how I'll feel after the drug? I wonder sometimes if it makes some pain worse and really want to try and get off it.

Hello, Ronnie! How are you?

Yes, that rough feeling could be some minor withdrawal, coupled with the medication wearing off, so more of your pain is breaking through.

However, taking that low of a dose, your withdrawals will most likely get just a bit worse than that. The symptoms may possibly include nausea, dizziness, fever, chills and rebound pain.

Have you spoken to your doctor about stopping it? They should be able to help you taper it.

I got my norco last month and was given white instead the peach ones and ive slept more and more pain. So I asked today for the company that makes the colored ones and the pharmacist says he doesnt know the co. I dont believe that. Ive got the colored ones for yrs til last month. Im asking for the co name that makes them if anyone knows?
