2 weeks and still irritable

I have been clean now for 2 weeks. Most of the physical withdrawls are over. I still feel tired all the time, but i know that is normal. I was taking 40 10/325's vics a day. I was on them for 2 and a half years and then switched to oxy's. I was then snorting 4-6 80's a day. I was curious because I still have very bad dirreah and my stomach hurts all the time. My appetite is almost back to normal. I was just wondering if i should go get this checked out? Could it be serious? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Although damage to your body is quite possible. Our bodies are a very resilient machine. After 3-6 months, most things and organs can regenerate.

What ever damage we have done to ourselves at this point is recovery, it is a dot in comparison to what damage we still havent done, but will do if we continue to use.

What were your moods before addiction?  I find that when I am clean and sober I become the person that I was most of my non-addicted life.  Now if you can remember back.... lol.  I probably would have myself checked out as far as the diahreah is concerned.  Perhaps you are anemic???  They can find out all that good stuff with a simple blood test.  Anyway about the snorting.  I too use to snort my hydromorphone.  Just to make the script last longer.  I have been drug free for about three months.  I still have alot of sinus problems.  I spend a great deal of the day congested.  Do you??  You are the perfect person to ask.  I guess my fear is that I may have messed up my sinuses for life.  Any answer to my question would be appreciated.  Best of luck to you and keep posting.

I always suggest that everyone, once you get clean, get a good and through check-up, including blood work. We tend to do a lot of damage to our bodies and it is good to have the doctor look at you.
