my sleep is slowly coming back... ive been walking at least a mile a day... going to the chiropractor and using a tens unit... ive been taking aleve... today I actually worked out in the yard! and im going roller skating with my family! I havent felt like doing anything with the family in 2 years!! im beginning to feel like myself again!!! those long hard days of early withdrawal suxd and the long jittery, sleepless days that followed were all very hard but its so worth it to have myself back and for my husband to have his wife back and my kids to have their mom back!! my neck is killing me.. but I was feeling neck pain on the meds! at least now I can participate and live life! the energy drain will probably continue for a while but I'll deal with it day by day! Im so thankful to be off of that ride!! just wanted to post to say it can be done, even tho its not easy its worth it... 150mg hydro/day prescribed/ 4yrs on hydro! OVER!!!!
