i am an addict. i can finally say it. i have been taking Vicodine the last 2 and a 1/2 years at least 7 pills a day at 750/750mg. i never went to rehab and stopped taking them about 3 months ago. i was told that it was not a good idea to get off the pills myself, but i was to scared to go to the Hospital. well about 3 weeks ago i started getting stomach pain in the mornings and was unable to eat a full lunch. then i started throwing up everymorning. so on and so on. no the vomiting has stopped but i still have a bad gag reflex and i still can eat whole meals. i have lost some weight but have put most of it back on. i need someone who know about this to let me know if this is normal? or if i need to go to the Doc?
thank you,
RJ
Robb,
I would suggest going to the doctor. Thats great you got off the pills, but after two or three months clean and now your getting sick, I'd say at this point it's not the lack of pills in your system it may be something else. And probably a good idea to make a doctors appointment. Good luck, let us know how ya' make out.
Take care.....................................God bless.......................................Bob

dear robb-
i do hope that you will find a doctor that you can trust. there are some out there so seek help. i finally found a physician whom i told about my addiction (20 vicodins/day) and she is honest, compassionate and caring to me. i had a complete physical, blood work, etc. so i can start living each day completely without worrying about my health. please do the same so that you can start living again! take care of yourself...

robb,
i really think u need a dr. i am not going to write this to scare u but, i hope it helps u.
i lost my sister 5 yrs ago, she was on vikes. because of covering up the pain with meds she couldn't feel other pain. she started symtoms like yourself, not being able to eat, yellow diareah all the time and a pain in her stomach.
she went to the hospital because of ONLY being able to eat popcycls. they ran test. she had a tumor that ate away her pancrease, spleen,and put a hole in her stomach.she had level 4 stomach cancer. she's no longer with me. the vikes can tear up your stomach like that.
my advice to you is, go get checked. i hope u r ok and it's nothing but, better to b safe then sorry.
i miss her a lot
good luck to you

Hey Robb, just to throw in my hat, definitely go see a dr. It occurs to me that you might have burnt a hole in your stomach due to the "tylenol" in the tabs (can't spell the generic name right now).
Having said that, I am not qualified at all to make make such a judgement, but those of us who abused drugs in the past seem to prone to continuing health ailments and sometimes they can be rather serious. Take this as anecdotal advice only.
All the best; let us know what you find out.
