Any suggestions as what I can do to get thru till hopefully I fall asleep. I also wanted to know, is there anyone whose eyes get dialated when the take their oxyi, mine have been and I have a problem focusing and seeing clearly. I have tried not to go anywhere and drive because I really have a problem with the sun. Has this happened to anyone????  Any help is greatly appreciated.

If you are down to 1 pill a day, you may as well stop and get this over with. All you are doing is prolonging the physical withdrawal stage. If you think that is the best way to go as well let us know and we can support you and help you with some home remedies that have worked for us.

Good luck and I wish you the best.

i think your experiencing withdrawal symptoms, but it might be a good idea to get your eyes checked out if it gets any worse, to be on the safe side, you need to drink plenty of fluids, use imodium for stomache problems or diorreah,
hot baths are good and help relax you, also valerian root will help too, if you go to top right hand corner of this page you will see the thomas recipe, in the health pages, there is some good things there to help ,i also had a bit of blurred vision whilst withdrawing, so hopefully thats what you have, keep posting and let us know how you are doing, take care, god bless
