Day 9 . . .

[HelpinUtah]

and I'm feeling much more human!  I'm still jittery, fatigued and feel anxious, but overall I'm so much better.  I don't feel like I'll crawl out of my skin anymore.  I also do not crave the Lortab like I thought I would or will that come later?

I have reduced myself from my doctor's schedule to only one Tranxene in the a.m. and one in the p.m.  I have reduced the Xanax two twice a day (totalling 1 mg.) and only use the Phenegren about once a day when my stomach starts giving me problems.  Originally she wanted me to take the Tranxene 4 times a day and the Xanax (2 .5 tablest every 6 hours) and Phenegren (2 tablets every 6 alternating wtih Xanax hours).  I was afraid I would then develop an addiction there.  So, like I said I'm down quite a bit.  At this rate, my goal is to be off the tranquilizers by this weekend.  

Have a great day everyone and stay STRONG!!!

Can someone tell me about the Lortab as I asked above?  I haven't craved them - is that normal?  Or, should I expect that to come later on!?  I'm hoping I got lucky without the cravings!
