No withdrawals from Vicodin?

Question

Asked for Female, 58 Years

I have lupus and fibromyalgia and have been on disability since 2007. I have taken Ultram and Vicodin for pain since 2005 but my doctor suggested I should stop taking one or the other. I’ve never taken more than prescribed but usually took 3 Vicodin and 6 Ultram a day. Ultram helps the burning pain in my legs, Vicodin the joint pain. I’ve had less joint pain so I stopped taking Vicodin a week ago. I dreaded withdrawal symptoms but the only thing I’ve had is a runny nose. How is this possible?
