Thanks for the replies :) I did take a long hot bath and it did help. I'm having trouble sleeping though. I figured I would post. I'm not really craving or thinking about using just having a rough day I guess.. I hope you all are feeling good :) thanks for being around when I need some advice and encouragement =)

It's good to stay active but maybe you have been overdoing it? The pain is horrible I know but also a helluva reminder of just what type of substances we were putting in our bodies. It will pass and you'll feel better and thankful that you pushed through it. Take the suggestions already given....it helps!

Hey peanut (cute  name) - It sounds like it's time for you to take a long hot soak with some epsom salts.  Simple yes, but it's always works for whatever ache I have.  For the headache, try some ibuprofen and maybe some hot tea after your bath.  

Well wishes to you...

hang in there peanut!!! You will feel better!!!! You will get your health, sanity and as an added bonus, you LIFE back! All for the small price of a little bit of misery. You can get through it. Take a hot soak for your legs, and maybe some rest for your headache. Excedrin is sometimes the only thing that works for my head. You're doing great!!
