weird symptoms after finishing methadone maintenance

[Electra1982]

So I've been off methadone for 12 days now and I know I'm not supposed to be completly normal yet. I just want to know if the following is normal: So I still get back pain but the more severe symptoms are the chronic fatigue with insomia and then the stomach pain. Every time I eat something, my stomach feels like theres a brick in it. I tried taking Tums but it doesn't work. Has anyone else dealt with or has been through the same thing?

The area berween my chest and belly bottun constantly feels hard and sore and always hurts and gets worse if I eat something. I also forgot to mention that my allergies have been very sensitive, I sneaze all day. Also, I still have RLS and leg pain when I attempt to sleep. If I do manage to fall asleep, I'm constantly waking up at least every hour. I know I've already been through thr worst part of withdrawel but jeez ths is really dragging on here.. (I also tried immodium last night for my stomach - nothing... and the weird thing is, the stomach pain only started 4 days ago) I was only on methadone for two years... Is this normal???

Yes...and for me it was hydrocodone wd..not methadone..the fatigue is almost what did me in..do not let it get to u and the best remedy is to MOVE

When u say ur tummy feels like a brick..what do u mean?  tums is for heartburn....is it nausea, heartburn?  often anxiety can cause lots of tummy problems...r u sleeping ok?
