17 days vicodin free still RLS?

Over two weeks free and clean...still having trouble sleeping, mainly due to restless leg syndrome. Is this normal? Worried it is no longer a result of withdrawal.

Congrats on day 17!!!  That is awesome!  Sounds like what you are feeling is normal....I didnt really feel better until about a month...then all the symptoms were gone except for lack of energy!  Keep hanging in and keep posting to let us know how you are getting on!!!

Way to go on day 17! Yeah RLS, trouble sleeping and all the pains from withdrawal are in effect until they decide to go away (normal). Same as anxiety, which would cause you to wonder if your normal in any way. It works like that. You're doing fabulous....ike

Hi  if the rls is still a problem push the potasum and magnezum a natural way is epsom salt baths and lots of bannanas.......Gnarly

Yes it's normal,there are no time limits on w/d symptoms unfortunately. But also depends on how long and how much you took. I'm still only getting 3-4 hrs a night at 3 1/2 months off oxys. Takes awhile for our brains to heal and rewire.
