Hello SoWeary, thank you for your comment. Yes, it was the same with me, I didn’t start with 8 pills a day, it was 2 occasionally for my back pain, then 4 when I realised it helps me for my Fibro pains too and then I built a tolerance and you know the rest… it was about 2 years ago. It’s hard for people with chronic pains to stay in control because you badly want to get rid of pain and you need to take more and more with time as it start being not enough for your body.
It’s day 4 for me, still feeling rough and no having energy is the worst for me. Maybe I should have started with tapering, it would be easier but now I don’t have any co codamol, I got rid of it and also I’m on day 4 so like half way through to feel better. I keep telling myself that what I’m going through is only temporary and it will only get better.
