Day 3 Percocet free

I'm so exhasted today, I only slept a few hours again last night as Sunday too, nothing helped my RLS, i don't have the sweats this time around, and my energy is not as low as last time I went through this... but I'm not sleeping and I have the tremors and RLS..... I'm still feeling pain in my kidney area.... trying hot baths, ice packs, heating pads, nothing is helping. It would be so easy to make this all go away.......... but I won't go there, I won't make that call..... my sanity is my music right now.... amazing how music can get you through any bad situation.... I'm looking forward to tomorrow though, looking forward to being another day clean, happier, healthier!! Thanks to all for all your support... everyone here is awesome!!

Yeah it is tough..I know sometimes words is like whatever but just need a support/reminder system..at least for me that's how I felt..I was in my bathroom crying and just wanna scream...this med got me no where for couple years and lost alot of chances of thing's and girlfriend and what not. Hang in there bud.

hey con, no pain when using bathroom, good thing.. i just have this constant throbbing pain there.... but before i call DR office to see if they can get me in sooner i want to see if this is just part of the WD process for me, and maybe the pain will go away over the next few days...

ya it's kinda weird, when i was in cuba last march i ran out of what i had taken with me, went through terrible WD while there, then when i gave them up.. ( on my own in June ) had the same WD symtoms.... but this time they are different, not as severe... funny how things go i guess!

This has been my experience too in having attempted a precipitated withdrawal a few times in the past. Where one time is worse than another. i wonder why that is...

I am so sorry you're going through this I am on day one perc withdrawal, ugh. You can do this. The kidney pain is something I would keep an eye on. The meds are dangerous in that they can mask pain of others things going on in your body that you otherwise would not pay attention too. Peace and be well!

Each withdraw is different.  Some I have had were worse than others or I had some of the symptoms that I didn't other times.   In any case, it all s.u.c.k.s!  (wonder why they block out that word?)   If the kidney area pain persists, I would see a Dr.  I hope your busy and long day helps you sleep tonight!

I know this part is hard but you can do it.  You are almost thru the worst of it.  Try to move around as much as you can and make sure to keep drinking plenty of fluids.  The kidney pain has me concerned tho.  Are you going to the bathroom?  Any fever?  If this continues you need to get checked out.
