Suboxone To Oxycodone

I have disc issues from L1 to L5 and I was on Oxycodone for 1 1/2 years starting at 5/325 4x's a day and ended @ 30mg 6x's aday so I decided to get off the Oxycodone with Suboxone, started @ 8mg Suboxone 2x's a day then tapered to .25.g Suboxone 1x a day over a 5 mos period, here's the problem in the 5 mos period since I wasn't on pain meds my pain came back full force and I started taking the Oxycodone 10mg 6x's a day for the last week, so I wanted to know if I was to stop taking the Oxycodone would I still go into withdrawal as though I had never stopped, the proiblem is in the last 5 months I lost my job and Medical insurance and I can't afford the Suboxones (oxycodone is a lot cheaper when prescribed than Suboxone ) I need an operation so in the mean while I resigned myself to the fact that I have to take the pain meds until Oba,a care allows me to get insurance to get the operation, but I don't want to build the same tolerance for the opiates that I did before, any help would be appreciated.

It's really going to depend on your own body and the way you react to narcotics. Taking them for a week isn't really a long period of time and, for most people, the withdrawal symptoms would be very mild.

Have you tried seeing if there is any assistance you can get, until you have a job and insurance, again?
