PAIN in my bones

[toxictome]

Hey all...I'm on day 25. I have been feeling great and sleeping pretty good. I tapered off a lower dose of vics.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem this far out after wd's..yesterday evening all my bones ached...especially my hips, back and tops of legs. I took a hot bath and went to bed...today the same thing..Motrin seems to help a little, as does a hot bath for a short while...but i feel like i got run over by a truck...is this normal?? Maybe it'sthe weather or a flu bug...i feel fine otherwise...

I haven't been on for a few days, been busy w/my boys....so I'm catching up on where everyone is at!!!  Take care............

Thanks, my friend...I thought it was time to slack off the forum a little and spend some quality time w/ my boys....they are off school til Weds...so we're just hanging,...but right now they are playing X-box 360. Then we are going to CHOP some veegies to roast in the oven....LOL

Withdrawals can be so strange.  Its hard to say if this is the flu coming on or the withdrawals giving you a final kick in the pants.  I was almost 2 months and would have odd days when I felt like I was back on day 3.  Sorry I'm no help on this one. Maybe someone else has had this.
Congrat's on 25 days !  That is so great.  Stay with it !   Hugs    Mary

Congrats on 25 always good to hear how well people are doing.I beleive its part of the gig as I have experinced same but have found that potassium and magnisium supplements keeps it from acting up.I forgot to take one day last week and my bones ached all day;Give it a try and thanks for the good news

Congrats on 25 days.  One month is a key point in your recovery.  Lots of folks relapse at one month 9 (I did).  The pains might be a way of your addiction trying to fool you.  Don't go for it.  You will be great.  Stay strong.

I am with Mary... I am on week 7 and STILL have days that feel like day 3. Its rainy here today and even my knuckles are achy... I dont understand it? But, you are not alone. I have on and off days. Days that I am determined to go to the doc and see what is wrong with me, then the next day I feel fine? Sorry, if this dont help, but, I feel that way too.

Thanks for all your input..I figured it part of the process, but I feel like i'm back on day 4!!!(physical wise)...at least I'm in a good spot emotionally, for today, anyway!!!

I will check into some of the supplements...haven't tried any of those yet.

You have all helped me alot......so i will just grin and bear it..this too shall pass and  in a couple of days i bet i feel like a MILLION $$$$$!!!   lol
~~hugs~~

Pain in the bones is a symptom of w/d.  I knew alot of s/s and when I started to have bone pain I was worried so I looked it up myself.  Sure enough, the bone pain was listed as a symptom.
