I was wondering if muscle weakness is part of WD's? My legs feel like noodles. Im on day 6. Feeling a little better, i actually walked 3 miles outside today! But, im still very weak. I have lyme disease, so, im not sure if my weakness is from that or not.
Blessings,

could be, although I dont have lymes.... but when I go through w/d's I get flu like... and yes, my legs and muscles hurt terribly...might be that you walked so much - 3 miles? WOW- can I ask why you walked so much?
Mindy-
Whenever I would go cold turkey and into full-blown withdrawls, My legs always felt horribly week, almost as if they would fall out from underneath me if I stood up. It is a horrible feeling I know. Your walk today may have also made your legs feel a bit weak.
Wow, Day 6!!!! You are definitly out of the woods, you should begin feeling so much better now! I always thought day 3-4 was the worst then each day after that felt better and better, and I always would begin to feel "physically" better by day 6-7.
The hardest thing is the mental part, Try to think of things now that you can do to keep your mind busy when something triggers you and you have a craveing come on. I found that keeping busy helped. I would even call my husband when they got really bad and have him talk me through it, and I would always feel better afterward.
Please keep up the good work, You are doing Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went for a walk for some exercise :-) Its so beautiful outside. I thought it might help my immune system.
Mentally, im doing fine, thank G-d. I just have chronic pain and, i had a few months where i had to take them every week. So, i found myself physically addicted and have never went through this before.
However, im not in pain right now, so its easy not to take them. I have extensive endometriosis and my period is coming up this weekend. Now THAT is going to be hard. I do not have a choice but to just "get through it without my meds" because i dont want to have to start WD all over again. I guess having 10 days will not be enough days clean to take any meds for my pain, which is going to suck.
This is such a great forum. Everyone has been so wonderful in answering my questions.
Im feeling pretty tired right now. Its kinda wavy, if that makes any sense. I have so many things wrong with me that its kinda hard to say if its the WD or not. I cant wait for this to be over so i know exactly whats going on in my body.

Mindy

Mindy, I got my period this morning (sorry if that isnt something the guys will want to read about)heh. I am starting to think that today might have been a poor choice for tapering.- but I havent got a choice right now as I am low on pills. I think this is happening for a reason. Love, Tired.
Hang in there tired! I hope you dont have too much pain this month.
Blessings,
Mindy
