Tpachuck,
You are about to come over the hump it will start getting much better, day  5,6,7, are days of much improvment. I would look into taking a supplement like L tyorisne it will help your energy level. keep posting it really helps

Wow! Day #4 is wonderful. You sound hopeful, and that is a great thing. Sleep does eventually come--for me between Day #5 and Day #8 it increased an hour to two per night until  I was up to 6 hours a night. Day #4 was hump day for me; perhaps it will be for you.

If you're not vomitting, at minimum get the popscicles and broth in your system. Your body desperately needs calories to turn into energy for this healing process. Even if you're not hungry. It will help TREMENDOUSLY! And good job walking at lunch. That's ffantastic.

I'm at Day #21--so your hope is well-founded!

Keep us posted.

Hey there, thanks for the note. Read my post up higher for an update. I think I'm experiencing PAWS. I will say, though, it's 100 times better than how I felt the first week! And a HUGE improvement from the Addicted Me...

You're doing GREAT! Hang in there. Things should strat to improve significantly tomorrow, if not today. DO you have a heating pad? That helped me w/the aches.
Love,

Yes I have a heating pad, ive been on it for most of the day, I slept for 2 hours and now I woke up feeling a bit nauseas, I havent really had anythign to eat, So im going to try some Ziti with Sauce. We'll see how that works. I hope tomorrow gets better. Im getting bored and sick of laying in bed, it makes me think about pills, but even things I used to like doing make me happy dont right now, hopefully someday soon they will. I hope my withdrawal symptoms go away soon because I would love to start living a Normal life!!

Thank you Athena <3
