i have been taking vicodin for 2 years and have abused it rather extensively.
-- By 40vicsdaily | Reply | Private Message me1 year ago i started taking somas also. i would take 25- 7.50mg tabs while i was at work throughout a normal day, when i would leave work i would pop 8 vics and 5 350mg somas..........on weekends about 40 vics and 10-15 somas a day.this is the type of abuse that causes constipation. 2 weeks without a bowel movement was not un common. So now the hard part i decided to stop taking these things and so far ive gone 11 days i went thru all of the symptoms you guys have listed and now i have no idea what to do about the diarrhea which will not stop.ive taken over the counter anti diarrhea meds, went to the hospital got an iv, had a test which came back showing my liver was swollen which turned out not to be a big deal because the damage is not to a vital point yet.but anyways the main thing i cant get over is the diarrhea....heres the weird thing if i eat a lot of food i don't poop but if i don't i have diarrhea all day. sorry this is so sloppy and porely punctuated but im in a rush when i figure out what will help me with this problem i post it
