Yeah, it was normal for me. But, here's what I did...I started a calendar..I'd keep up with the hours I felt "bad" and write them on the calendar. Some days it's 1..some it's 10. But, over time the numbers average down. Sometimes it helps to "see" progress.
thanks guys...it's driving me nutz....if i take 1/2 of a 5mg vallium it helps...i hope that's ok to do
What a good idea Ga Guy. Im going to start a little notes journal. Im sure I was feeling achy and somewhat depressed around the third week. I remember how bad I felt walking one mile. I felt like I couldnt do it! Whole body ached. Im at day 53 and, soon to quit counting, I feel sooo much better in every way.
a little help....do you think it's ok to take the 1/2 mg of valium
dng,
I would consider changing over to a muscle relaxer instead less chance of addiction.

can't do that have to work...they make me very sleepy
soma works for my body aches. i dont care what anyone says about it. Ive never been addicted to it and it just plain works.
they do have muscle relaxers that dont make you sleepy. there are a ton out there.
sorry i don't know of any...i really do not want to go to the doctor on this....too ashamed
bettie, is right there are some muscle relaxers out there that will not make you sleepy ,what have you tryed .I am surprized the valium does not make you sleepy as well.

you can actually get them online. look em up before you buy to see what makes you sleepy etc...i wouldnt recommend flexeril cuz that knocks me out. but skelaxin didnt. email me if you need more info.
or you could just take plain old ibuprofen OTC. that helps with aches.
i only take 1/2 of a 5 mg...so that's why i don't get sleepy...only in the morn....at nite the other half to sleep....but like i said not every day...some days i'n fine who knows i'm sooooooooo tired trying to figure this **** out...i guess it has to run it's cource
