Hey L,
I will send you a PM on the PAWS,, issue.
Maybe you can explain a bit of the info. you have on PAWS and opiate addicts. Everyone I know that had ever withdrawn from opiates has experienced it, and I also learned about it in all of the treatments I have ever been in, so I knew what to expect.
But, dear Shelly, I do want to explain that PAWS is nothing really that you should be worried about, first, you are just getting through withdrawal, and second, it's nothing to fear anyway, it's frustrating, but it's nothing that is anything like you are going through now.. So don't concern yourself with it now. I guess I just brought it up, so that you could ask your doctor about it, for future reference.. It's in very basic terms, your brain getting back to normal function after the effects of opiates.. But nothing to fear..
I really hope we hear from you.. I hope you are doing well today... Or better???
Please let us know..
lbadeker did give you some great advice in listening to your doctor about the clonidine.. It should help you
Prayers to you,
Becky
