:(Okay, I got 2 prescriptions of Hydrocodone filled in a month. Now I'm out, and I'm thinking of going to my local hospital, and tell them I fell and hurt my back ( which it really does, that's the reason I'm on the Hydrocodone ). My question is will they search and see that I've gotten 2 scripts filled recently? I'm hurting so bad. These withdrawals are hell. The dr just doesn't prescribe enough and that's why I got both of the scripts filled. Now I don't know what to do. Please help!

The answer could vary based on your location.
but chances are, yes, they will certainly see that.
Is your backpain the result of an accident or something? Or more along the lines of chronic pain?
If the latter, bring it up to your DR at the next visit. Hydrocodone is pretty low on the list of opiate strenths, so there are many options if the Dr agrees to increase or try something else.
As far as if you should go to the ER, again it depends on the actual cause of your pain. If you plan to go to the ER with the hope of receiving an opiate to alleviate your withdrawl, you may end up with shot of morphine, or you may end up with a Tramadol. 800mg ibuprofen and a 500 dollar bill. They see that shit everyday, so they're pretty keen on drug seeking behavior. again, way to many variables to give you a completely straight answer.
Best of luck in whatever you do, Trust me when I say we feel your pain.

Hi. Welcome to our forum. If you let us know how much you take, how often, and how long you have been taking opiates it might help you get a more appropriate answer.
The first withdraw hit me like a truck. I didn't see it coming, and I never imagined it would hit like that. I hope that you figure out a solution.

If the wd's are that bad, go to Walmart/Cvs or what have you and buy loperamide (Imodium) pills. They are 2mg and start by taking around 8-12mg aka 4-6 pills. Wait a couple hours and see how you feel and maybe take a little more. Don't go overboard but it helps a lot of people, me included. Some people it doesn't but it SHOULD get you well enough to hold yourself over so you can figure your situation out without being on the toilet. Good luck, as Tchip said, we've been there and it is for the birds.

Whatever happens, it's hydrocodone, one of the mildest of opiates. Remember how you feel now if you are ever tempted to start taking stronger opiates.
Consider yourself lucky. You have been given a glimpse into the real misery of w/d you would get from full-strength opiates.
Have you tried getting some OTC lomotil? I suspct with your small habit they would make you much more comfortable.

You could try the ER-although there's no guarantee they'll help and you run the risk of being labelled a drug seeker-which you need like a hole in the head.
if all else fails and it's pressing,I'd go with loperamide if you can't beg,borrow or steal anything else.
Anyhow,my main advice is, prepare,prepare prepare-don't let this happen again.Always have a plan b.
Much luck and I hope your pain passes quickly.

I agree with teh loperamide, you can look around the net and find dosing advice, but 5-10 pills@ 2mg per should give you some relief.
Also, I have to echo what others have said, if ou think W/D's are bad from a few vicoden a day, DO NOT ever use harder shit, honeslty. I'm not trying to dicksize here, but I wouldn't even feel 5 vicoden, hell I'd be surprised to fee 20, my liver would feel the asprin, but that's about it.
If you do take the wrong turn and end p on stronger opi's, you'll look back and this day and PRAY for the w/d's you're going thru now. Heroin W/D's are just plain unbearable....
again, Lope, dxm, and vitamins all will help your case. I promise it'll get better with those things...

Thanks everyone for responding! I'm just now seeing this. I get a new script in 2 weeks😩, but my cousin gave me enough for a few days, so I'm just gonna make an appointment with my dr and tell him the 7.5 aren't working anymore. I have chronic back and neck pain, and I also have heel Spurs. I decided not to go to ER cause I really don't wanna take the chance of getting cut off cause that has happened before. Thank you so much guys!

What if you go to your doctor saying "these ain't working",
and he wants to do a pill count ? And can 'see' 2 recent refills ?
OOOPS !

I fought through some pretty nasty oxy w/d a few years back. Kratom is a good answer IMHO. Green Malaysian. You can get it at virtually any head shop, except fucking TN and IN where I think it's still illegal.
Once you're stable on the Kratom, you can taper off. Much easier.

If your state is connected
By a computer net work
Not only will you
Ruin your chances
You might
Get labeled
A drug seeker
Then good luck with any script
You could do the old little bit of blood in the urine
Not enough to be seen just a pin prick
That is a sign of a kidney stone
And a cause of back pain
But you should have high blood pressure
So you should have some pain
It's a symptom of pain
And of detox
So that one is up to you
If you lived in my state MI
I would just suffer through it
With Imodium and ibuprofen

give it another 5-8 years/50-200 more withdrawals and you will get used to it...
seriously though, PLEASE take the advice

You ain't kiddin-- I know when I was in full blown addiction I couldn't feel even 20 Vicodin tens. I had tons of cash and not as many connects for a couple years but I used to get #180 Vicodin 10s for $250 and I took 70+ in 24 hours and I was hurting more than feeling good. Still can't believe I did that shit.
But once I went to rehab for the first time it wasn't long before I had more connects than money and lost a 6 figure job not too long after that... God damn tolerance.
