You can expect you tolorance to be diminshed noticibly, if not entirely, after two weeks. The only way to know where your tolorance lies is to scale up slowly, perhaps even slower than you did when you began taking them. Two weeks off even after habitually using opioids is long enough to get them entirely out of your system. Certainlly do not go back to your old habit, as this could leave you feeling very uncomfortable. Be safe...start out small...scale up slowly...and always be patient.
