Ques? Massage and wd's??

[maydecember62]

Hello~

We we're wondering what some of your opinion's are on this....

We are on day 7 of oxy wd's (Sun). Friday we went to get a 2hr massage, felt okay on Saturday so we decided to get another 1hr massage. OMG are we in wd pain today!!! Our legs are SSSOOO achey, no sleep at all (which we've been getting a lil, 4-5 hrs), our stomach's going haywire...

What's going on? We feel like day 2 or 3 again!! They say massages release toxin's, we thought it was BS....

Anyone?

No it is not RLS that your having. I hate that feeling i got to my 7 day and then started taking again because of that feeling. I heard it was call kicking it hurts, so bad I only take about 3 vicodin a day. My Husband takes about 30 or more a day. He has been on subaxin which seem to help a little while. Methadone I hate it,but he takes that to and percocets I hope to get off and I hope he get off,or he will OD. Just hang in there you will stop hurting.but if you dont ask your Doctor, for Subaxin.

Thanks guys, it seems the nights are worse, it's probably mostly fear b/c you know your not going to sleep!!!!

We are hoping to get some shut eye, yesterday night we had NONE!!!

Makes it so much longer!!!!!

Thx for all your responses! Keeps us motivated!!
Thx ccandy, we thought we were odd or something:-)

Good night all, hope you sleep and good luck with sobriety!!!

I don't know anything about massages and toxins, but when I was around days 8-10, my withdrawal seemed to creepy up on me out of nowhere, like I hit reset, and then it subsided. No idea why it happened, couldn't wrap my head around it, so possibly nothing to do with the massage or maybe just part of it was.

Congrats on 7 days!!  What you are feeling is normal with the aches.  I would keep getting the massages too......Sounds like a bit of heaven to me!!            sara

is it pain or RLS?  Hot baths with Epsom salt and stay away from massage for now if you feel like making worse.  hope you feel better soon.  If RLS Robitussin DM is supposed to help.

Sorry, now I understand. I cannot say that it is all that out of the ordinary. A lot of the withdrawal process depends on so many factors such as your age, your health, the amount you were using, the amount of time you were using, your metabolism...etc., etc. So basically everyone is different.

Congrats on day 7!! What I can basically say is hang in there. The promise is it does get better if you do. The massages sound wonderful and I am jealous actually. In addition keep up with good nutrition, stay hydrated and try andy form of exercise even if it is only a brisk short walk.

Keep talking as well, it does help.

We? Are you in the third person or are you in withdrawal with someone? Pardon my stupidity....
