day 10

[jilliebean9021]

Worked the past 3 days. Went well.  The ups anddowns are tough but manageable.  I have had very little cravings which is great.  Emotionally uunstable. But it seems to get better each day. Main thing I am fighting now are these daily head aches. They get SO BAD. My blood pressure is not high. I take 800mg ibprofen and it doesn't even touch it. Any help or advice would be wonderful.  

Yay for 10 days clean. Proud of myself.

Congrats on 10 days clean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So proud of you!!!

Hopefully the headaches will get better as time goes by.  It is a pretty common problem but do talk with your doctor on Tuesday.

I think i will do a happy dance for you, Minnesota style~

Hi & CONGRATULATIONS on 10 days! Its GREAT to see you pushing forward. About a month or (maybe a little longer) ago I started getting debilitating headaches. After many tests it was found that they are caused from stress & anxiety. I didn't think it would have been stress because I am dealing with everything going on but apparently STRESS can really make you physically sick. I don't know if this applies to you but it's a thought?? I've heard MANY people give rave reviews about the imitrex. Hope they go away soon and again, CONGRATS!

No that is one I haven't tried before. Does it work?

[jilliebean9021]

Have you tried imitrex?  Non habit forming.

Congratulations on 10 days!!! Today is day 5 for me but I haven't had to go to work yet, I will tomorrow. I am curious to know what anyone say about headaches too because I suffer from migraines which is how I got into my mess, but these ones lately aren't as bad as before but everyday is getting to be a bit much!
