Chills
So I am now officially on day 26 of being clean, but I have a question for others who have gone through this experience - When did your chils/sweating like a pig go away - I would have thought I would be over this lovely part of the withdrawal, but I get these "bone chilling" chills, that literally "hurt" all the while I am sweating - I cant figure it out - I was thinking maybe it was one of my medications, but I am not sure
Has anyone else experienced this, after being clean for close to 30days?

Hi TC
my usual detox was from alcohol but it wasn't unusual for me to sweat for a month - of course I do live in the tropics, but you know the kind of sweating I mean.
It's always a good idea to see a Dr if you're worried

Sometimes I got the sweats during detox and sometimes not. Each person and each detox can have its unique quirks.
I do recall having a rough detox a few years ago where I had sweat more than normal - with the bone chilling effects you speak of - but I was on some kind of SSRI at the time too. May have been Cymbalta. It went away after a few weeks of no booze and no SSRIs.
