Recovery side effects and symptoms?

[Nijoni]

Hi, am very interested in getting some feed back on side effects or symptoms expierenced after detox/hospitalization.  I am currently on my 5th mth since hospitalization and on the road to recovery.  There are some issues that may or may not be apart of this process.. Example: weakness, nerve pain, nausea etc.  Is it the medication being taken or is it apart of the process?

As of now only on Norco 10mg every 8.  I will check on that with my doctor.  Sometimes he even sounds confused by it all.

According to my doctor he is really happy that I am back on track with the blood thing.  I really couldn't tell you when the symptons started, but looking back I can recall hand seizure and then? I just knew something was wrong and told my daughter to call my friend.  Do not remember anything except what I was told.  No anxiety.  Thank

Vodka 5th a day.  Three years.  As of now only on Norco 10mg every 8.  Definetly liver damage.  I recall during the biopsy 3 dry 1 wet.  Does not sound very good.  Dr. says I can't drink anymore and I don't want to do that again.  I put my body thru hell and paid for it dearly afterwards.

a month in the hospital...you must have been at it pretty good...an impaired liver can cause all kinds of problems ...some can last for a long time...some can last for ever...it depends on how much damage you did to it....5 months is still early on....weakness from your mussels being starved from  glucose (your liver stores glucose your brain and mussels need it to function)...hows your blood work???  and how much for how long did you drink??? if you drank a lot then i would think you could have symptoms for a year or more....at least 6 months ...hows your anxiety? that can cause lots of trouble....good luck....billy
