Hang on...I know how hard this is...I'm going through w/d too! It sucks but look at the alternative. You have support here and your husband, even thought not the same amt can understand the hold these meds get on you life. Please hang in there. I know what yoy mean when it gets hard to type butyou need to clear your mind and write down what you're feeling. Lots of good people out here!
i'm going thru it too.keep trying,hey at least your in fla. i have the sweats,chills, etc. and its about 14 degrees outside with snow. that really sucks, 330in the morning cant sleep and have to get up at 630 with the kids,i hate this and have mad respect for all of you.
I hope you can get some sleep, if you wake up in the middle of the night just uneasy or irritable, please post. I'll pray that you are able to sleep through the night. I always think if I can make it those 8 hours asleep, I am not feeling the "yucks".
Remember we are all here for you :)
u are all amazing-I can't sit up much more, so i will take laptop to the bedside. I pace-then I am tired-I pace-then out of breath-geez! I haven't bee in touch with facility yet-found that website but calling tomorrow-I do not see myself going to work-they wont be happy. if all of you noticed, my "n" on my laptop sticks, so words with an n appears when it wants to, just so u know I'm not illiterate (sp?) LOL-I needed that.
forget the first question, must have posted as you answered :)
you are not alone.. we are here. whatever you need. your body will adjust to the lower dose. it may take a few days. but it will. i am concerned about your liver with the amount of tylenol. glad to here you got in touch with a place since we spoke yesterday. don't be scared we are here. and if it gets too bad i will drive to jacksonville and take you to a detox myself..its not that far couple hours..
Oh honey, your doing so amazing. Are you tapering? Cold turkey? You mentioned disappointing dh, does he not know of the hold the meds have on you?
Listen girl I am here, if you just want to babble and type keys, I will be here. I know when I am going through wd's I don't want to sit still, I don't want to think, or type. I have thoughts, want to share them, but don't have it in me to type it out. So if you just want to babble, you are surrounded by those that care. Babble away :)
Are you a coffee drinker? Maybe a cup of tea or coffee? Some Immodium AD for the cramps when they come. A little Advil for the aches. I know it won't compare to the meds themselves, Hold on love your a strong woman and you can do this
please call them as soon as you think they are open. can you take your va-ca earlier than expected?? family emergency?? something?
I am tired-I will call them in morning-leaving note to hubby to check on me when he gets in, and leaving website info for him-including this site should he need to post here when I am gone-to detox I mean. He will find out sooner or later-he is tapering too, but remember-he thiks Ive been on same dose all this time-3 to 4 a day-he's in for a shocker...i do love him so-he will be disapointed-gnite friends-i couldn't do this without u all-i thank each of u-I'm so tired-will talk soon.,.,..
maybe your hubby will understand,he must know how easy it is for these pills to get ahold of you,I would try to talk to him,he may be a lot better about it than you think,gnight try to get some rest
i have lost fluids, gatorade, water-but hacve no desire for them-yuk. my left side hurts-tapering down-way down-went 6 hours w/o when I was taking 8-10 every 2 hours. i am taking 5-6 every 5-7 hours, but my goodness-can you imagine c/t? i swear it feels like your dying. i appreciate all of you-how can u all be so sweet-why can't you be here with me-kind of makes me sad. i guess i feel so incredibly alone in this. i cant stand it.
Ok slow down,you are going to be ok,dont be scared,we are here for you as long as you need,you are not alone in this !
you are gonna be ok.. did you stop cold turkey?? or are you tapering?? I will stay up as long as you need someone to talk to. a little fever is not uncommon. keep an eye on it. have some fluids water gatorade something like that. which side hurts??
