DAY 7

Had a better day today....I had a small amount of motivation. Here is a new issue my pupils are very dilated and my vision is a bit blurry on day 7, what is that all about? By mid-day I am very, very fatigued...I knew if I just had a couple Norco all of this would go away..No worries though, I'm not going back to living that life.... Watched the movie 'Things We Lost In The Fire" with Halley Berry. Just watching that movie makes you want to quit whatever your substance of choice is!!!

I am working on day 7 myself. My wife noticed around day 4 my eyes were really dialated. I have noticed some vision changes but nothing major. I expect that will go away in a few more days. OlyAddict

Thanks so much for the information and encouragement, Your kindness and support has really helped me ...... I have been a closet addict. I told no one, I was a functioning drug user . But things got so out of control 25 to 30 Norcos  After all the years of Norco I forget what it is like to live a normal life...The funny thing I worked in the Airline Industry for 28 years and we were drug tested, I never had any drug issues. I was never an addict until my 40's. I had surgery 5 times and really liked the painmeds. I started a new career later in life and was really proud with what I was doing...... I wanted a little bump to work a little longer, faster, and focus better.....now I know it was all about stress...... Go figure... I do know, there is always good that comes out of bad times or events..

Great job day 7. It gets a lil better each day day 13 is almost complete for myself and feeling better this evening. Has its up and downs but all in all it is still a cheap price to pay for the time I have been on it. I assume if it takes me a month to get physically better and somewhat normal it is still a very short time indeed. Imagine if it was 1 day for 1 day. UUUGGGHHHHHH>

good for you! Im on Day 1.  It's pretty difficult.  You too are in the early stages of recovery.  Try source of life liquid vitamins, and try a strong B6 and B12 supplement with L-tyrosine 1 hour before breakfast and lunch to cure your fatigue.  Get to the root of your addiction so that you get well...Take care.
