I do think yes, he could be going through mild w/ds. Keep him hydrated, for muscle aches, epsom salt baths, immodium for the diarrea, and just stay positive with him! It doesn't take long for opiates to get u! Glad to hear he knew this so took himself off. Shows a lot of guts I think!
Thank you Motye51. I will keep him hydrated for sure. I just hope after 3 weeks he can get thru this detox quickly. :)
Hi and welcome.. Just think of him having a bad flu.. The symptoms r about the same. Be positive with him it took a lot of guts and willpower for him to stop. Hopefully it won't be long as,he was not on them for a long time. Keep us informed and congrats on being there for him.. Hugs
It definitely sounds like your husband is experiencing withdrawals.It doesn't take very long for someone to become physically dependent on opiates. In some cases people can feel withdrawals after a one time high dose. Your husband hasnt been on them very long so hopefully he will be over it in 3-5 days. I will post a link to the Thomas Recipe which some have felt helped them deal with detox. Good luck to you both.
