I agree with the plain old sick thing. You can probably imagine that when we are detoxing our bodies are hard at work in the healing procesws and may be more suseptible (sp?) to germs. Seeing a doctor is a good idea in early recovery. You may not remember what it's like to actually feel sick because for 7 years now...you would use over it and not feel it ....ya think?
I had a full range of chemistry testing of my blood within the first 60 days of being clean. It gave me and my doctor a baseline to go from.
Hang in there and don't use no matter what.
I gets easier. Remember....7 years it took you to get sick enough to stop using...it may take 7 weeks or possibly even 7 months to get back to your best again. Gosh now that's a fair trade, huh? When considering this remember you are loved.
praying you feel better soon,
