Impossible to say without seeing your php code. Potentially there are
many changes.

You'd be better off doing the heavy lifting yourself first:

1. read all the changelogs
2. run it in a staging vm with php5.5 and see what happens

some folks might be in a position to tell you what happened to them with
such an upgrade, but that's only a partial picture, you'd still have to
deal with what *your* code does
