I was on them for 2 years or more up to 8-12/day...tapered for a while and then CT..was feeling crummy for a week or so then woke up one day and said "you know....I think I'm feeling pretty good!"


And then my doctor put me on "non addictive" tramadol

It is a short time.  Withdrawal symptoms can be very similar to flu-like symptoms.  Not sure where you are, but I know 2 of my 4 kids have been sick with flu-type things the last few weeks; mostly stomach, diarrhea, achy stuff.  Could be that.

wow, you are going through w/ds after taking them for only a week...i am surprised you would have any w/ds.  they surely shouldnt last but a couple days.  when did you stop?  are you sure you dont have the flu or something???  stick around, i am sure others will give their opinions as well.  good luck to you.
