still shaky but better, here's how

First of all, THANK YOU for all your support, the people who have friended me, and for being interested in my personal recovery.

I'm still not out of the woods, but, due to the sound advice of several people, I went out and got Epsom salts, Immodium, and Motrin. Got home, while bath with 2 cups of the salt was running, took an immodium for the stomach issues, and 800mg of motrin. I actually got store brand versions. Soaked for 20 mins. I feel way better...still a bit nutty, lol, but I sorta feel like ME again.

Atta girl!  Keep taking that advice, and you'll make it.  I'll never forget.....when I went through this three years ago, I had never taken a vitamin in my life.  I read and read and read and asked questions, and I, for one time in my life, took the advice from others.  I went and got the few things that I took.  Not every single thing from the Thomas recipe, but what I DID take helped me more than I ever thought it would.  The cal/mag/zinc is a life saver.  Also the Hylands Leg Cramps.  Up your dose of imodium a little bit. It will help more than just the runs!  Promise!  I've been through this too many times to count, and I'm telling  you that some of these things acutally work! :)  Hot baths are great too, as you see!  

Just keep fighting, and you'll get there!  Just gotta have patience, and we addicts don't have too much of that! :)
