Guest guest Posted August 24, 2002 Report Share Posted August 24, 2002 The withdrawals have all but stopped my eating. I can only handle a few bites of food per attempt. This has cost me 12 pounds so far. My legs are very week and standing is near impossible. It matters not what time of day or night it is. Sleep comes from to time to time. At this point any is a good sign. I take it day or night. The shakes and sweats are 50% controlled, Heroin can't be gone off of cold turkey. I keep my head foggy as possible. The music still plays to put the shakes as far out of my mind as possible. I am working on developing better control to beat this hell. Modify this or that, that what I do have. There is no history relating to the changes, yet. I will test in hopes of better days. I have found that this may take at least 2 weeks to end. I do not have enough body weight to last that long. My vision has gotten very bad, neuropathy has spread to about 50% of my body. The depression is still hanging in, but no worse. I am fighting this as best as possible with out going to re-hab. I never want to go through that again. I hope to have good news soon depending on the next few hours. Keep me in your prayers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your pcp unwilling to help? I'm keeping you in my prayers and wish there was more that I could do for you. Please don't be afraid to ask for some medical help. There are some health care professionals who Really DO CARE!!! Peace & Prayers, -- In pancreatitis@y..., " gottabe_alakelover " wrote: > The withdrawals have all but stopped my eating.
