Ahhhhhh-Choo!

Tick Tick Tick Tick      ***64 hours clean***      Tick Tick Tick Tick
Tick Tick Tick Tick      Tick Tick   Tick Tick      Tick Tick Tick Tick

So what did I do today?   Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!
Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-ChooAhhhhhh-Choo!
Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-ChooAhhhhhh-Choo!
Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-Choo!Ahhhhhh-ChooAhhhhhh-Choo!

The creepie crawlies on my legs and my face come and go.  The horrid ache in my hips and knees, and basically all other major joints come and go.  <-- probably from the fibromyalgia and will subside to normal never ending pain in my everything.

But the sneezing!!!! What's with the sneezing?  My hubby has asked me a dozen times if I'm getting the flu!  That works out great since he isn't aware of my rip roaring love affair with Tramadol - But give it a rest!          Ahhhhhh-Choo!

Is anyone else sneezing their head off?

How long does this last?

Yep, I've had several people ask if I have made time to go get a flu shot.  And yes, Faith, you are correct we should be honest with our spouses, but I'm among those who are not quite so pure of heart.  I've already proven that I have issues or I wouldn't be in the position I'm in now with the WD symptoms.  I'll save my soul cleansing confession for a bit further down the road, than day 5, before I sit down with my darling husband.

I have sneezed so many times in the last few days, i have a sore throat, but that's one of the withdrawal symptoms, along with runny nose and eyes, so if you hiding you detox from someone (as I am), it's at least a cover!  although N/A teaches us to honest!!!!!

The after-effects of opiate withdrawal can take a good month.  That is a gradual every-day-is-better type thing.  The physical part takes about that long, give or take.  But it is the mental side that brings most of us back into relapse.  The pills will always play their siren song to you... forever.  Will you answer the call?

I slept really good the first night, but I think that was cuz I still had LOTS in my system.  Monday evening I slept from 7pm to 8:30am Tuesday, then slept again from 9:30-12:30pm, Tuesday night I went to bed about 10:30p-8a this morning.  Today I've only managed a small nap from 2:30-4.  Right now I'm wide awake and really cold.  Unfortunately it is raining, no let's say it's pouring, outside so I can't go get in my hot tub.  I've had 3 very hot showers today, so far.

What about the aches and the creepie crawlies?  Do they set off in the sunset as well?

Exactly how long does withdrawal take?  I only have a few more vacation days left - I need to be able to go back to work looking normal by Monday if at all possible.

Ugh.
