First, I'd like to say that I'm glad you survived the accident. It sounds like it was serious.

Since everyone is different, giving you a straightforward, factual answer will be impossible. It may very well be that you will not experience any withdrawal or it will be so mild that you are able to tolerate it and may not even notice any symptoms at all (which would be fantastic for you). The dosage you've been taking is not that much and the length of time you've been taking them is not that long of a period so you may be fortunate in that your withdrawal from this medication will be uneventful. Since you've already had a two week period where you've stopped taking the Lorcet you've given your body a chance to taper. 20mg of Oxy is a very low dose and stopping may be harder for you in your mind than it actually will be for your body. I have found that my mind plays a vital role in my success at stopping hydro and also plays a role in what degree of withdrawal symptoms I suffer. Our minds can be crafty little buggers that don't necessarily operate the way we intend for it to at times. We can think ourselves right into withdrawal. Of course, I may be the only weird one whose mind operates this way. I highly doubt it though.
