I am new too. and I am not a young either I have never had this problem. I have osteoarthritis and I now know that I should not have gotten involved with opana or oxymorphone but I believed the Dr. I have since had knee replacement and really didn't know what my pain level even was anymore. to make long story short I got addicted and ended up in constant withdrawal cause I absolutely refused to let him increase that stuff. so I made him start decreasing it 5 mos ago but I got sick of him and the last month I really cut it down and finally just stopped last Monday. I was hardly taking any anyway. mon tue wed felt pretty bad muscle pain no appetite very weak. yesterday was up day muscle aches were gone until late last night when came back with a vengeance and I haven't been to sleep since. am I going to be ok? I am 62 and am a strong old lady, been thru a lot in my life. but for the life of me I have never been addicted to much except sex LOL but I am worried. do I need a Dr? or is this going to get better in next couple of days I am pretty determined. as determined as that dr was to keep me addicted to that stuff. I did not go cold turkey I was smart enough not to do that. I didn't want to kill myself but I can tell my body wants that stuff only I am not going to give it. I threw it away . I never vomited or had the runs just aches no appetite very weak. so how long do I suffer? can I take it?
