Hi, I've been off the Norco's for about 2 weeks now, Went through a very slow taper but OFF OF THEM!!! Yahoo!  I still have the chills off and on, nothing like it was.  My digestive tract still isn't well 'on track' yet but nothing like it was.  I keep thiking "how can I STILL be having withdrawls".  My sleep is not great, but I sleep solid for about 4-5 hours a night but then boom, I just wake up.  I can't remember the last time I had a solid 7 hours of sleep but I really feel it's coming.  BP (before pills) about 3 years ago, I could sleep anywhere, anytime.  Now I miss it as I've had insomnia forever.  But hey, I don't take the pills anymore!  I do get comments at work about why I put the sweater on and then take it right off.  It's getting better... It will for you too!!
