it sounds like the worst part is over.you will still feel a bit uncomfortable for a week or so .insomnia will most likely be your next battle for about a month.if you can get your hands on some trazadone for sleep it's wonderful.just dont take any more hydros or you will fall.good luck

Glad to hear you are on day 4.  Get some vitamins as they really help.  Each day should be better now as the physical wd's should be nearing the end.  Keep fighting and stay strong          sara
