Is Sweating Along With Tiredness Is Normal If Having RA And Taking Percocet?

Hi. I have RA and have been on percocet in the past which i got of on my own last year. I have since been taking T3 - about 4-6/day. I stopped cold turkey because I dont like how they make me feel. Im sweaty and tired. Is this normal? I thought the amount of codine was too low to actually have any syptoms coming off of them. Thanks.

Hello and welcome.

I understand how the cold turkey makes an individual feel, but sadly as this is the only effective way, it is still being used.

Your symptoms could be due to withdrawal, but then again they could be due to various other conditions as well (eg. Diabetes, side effects of the current medications, etc.). Please visit your doctor for the same.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
