Good morning

I have been feeling sick the last 2 days. I have bad chills and I'm congested. I think maybe the whole detox process may have weakened my immume system. I took 2 tylenol last night and they made me feel much better. But this morning I'm starting to feel bad again. Good thing I have some gatorade left.

I got the flu right after detoxing. I know it was the flu though cause both my kids had it. I had horrible chills, vomiting, a fever, congested, and a cough. It has been horrible this year. They had a thing on the news about it. Just drink plenty of fluids and get your rest! Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Sorry you feel bad this morning.  Hopefully you do not have the flu...so often things happen that way after detox.  Good for you for not wanting a pill!!!  
Have you read my posts about that stuff we are drinking?  I am telling everyone about it because it is amazing...absolutely amazing.  Check out my journal...I have posted info regarding NaturalCalm.
Hang in there.
I wish I could send this to all of you!!!!

The only difference between this and going thru withdraws is that I don't want a pill.

So sorry you're feeling so bad. Do you think you're comming down with the flu on top of withdrawels? That would really suck, a double whamy. Hope you feel better soon.
