Health Problems
I posted this in the Substance Abuse section too, I dunno really where it belongs, heh, sorry.
So uhm...hi,
I'm clean off of cocaine, opium, weed and all that bad stuff since March 31st. And even tho I enjoy my clean life ( ) I still got health problems mainly concerning my lungs & heart. I get chest infections like bronchitis and pneumonia quite often. Also my heartbeat is irregular and sometimes it skips beats. I'm out of breath a lot of times. I woke up coughing a lot today. Oh well, I guess my body can recover but I need to be more patient. Also I need to see a dr about all this but I'm deep inside a wussie who's really afraid of dr's. Anyone know what to expect? Anyone got any possible advice?
Wow...that was hard typing all out.

Gee
I am sorry you are not feeling well. And yes..it does take awhile to have our bodies back healthy.
I just had a chemical cardiovascular stress test done because I had been taking a medicine recalled by the FDA.
It was a great releif to find my symptoms were not anything to be concerned about.
I would rather know what is happening rather than to hide from reality. Please go for a check up.

Most definitly go get checked out. When I quit I got a complete physical and it wasn't pretty. This gave me a baseline of how I can begin to see my body heal on follow-ups. You quit, your clean and that's awesome, the mental healing has begun, now go take care of your physical healing by seeing a doc. You won't get any peace until you do.
