Hello.
I've had 2 bulged discs in my neck and a flair up or arthritis in my lower back which lead to me taking endone for about 5 months. Ranging from 5mg-30mg a day.
I'm now off it and the withdrawal is brutal...my anxiety and panic attacks are through the roof. Please some good news that a) it doesn't last forever b) how long did it last c) words of encouragement!!!!
Edit. My doctor is the best and has been with me every step of the way. I can even msg him personally on weekends if I need to.

Feeling for you! Withdrawing from prescription medication is awful. But you can do it!!! Take it one day at a time. Even hour at a time!
I hope your feeling much better soon xx
It is so awful. Thanks for your msg. It means a lot xxx
Withdrawal is nasty! No it doesn't last forever, you can do it! So good you have a great relationship with your doctor. My hubby has been on endone for yeeaarrrss, because of chronic pain/ poor health I am dreading him withdrawing haha its going to be soon though after he has the last of his surgeries.
It’s been a week since you posted, I hope that the side effects have started to subside and you’re doing much better.
My husband went through this a few years ago. It was hard for about 2 weeks it definitely passes. Hang in there
