I have been suffering withdrawals for over three weeks. The worst symptom is dizziness. It was almost gone when yesterday I got out of bed and hit the wall with my face and chest. I lost a second because I don't remember the falling, just the hitting. I fell back into bed and lay there, dizzy and unable to even sit, for about 7 hours. It was quite scary.
Alan went down to the pharmacy and asked the pharmacist and he said he felt it was still the withdrawals, despite being almost symptom free for a few days. Why would it suddenly come back like that and why so severe?
The other thing I'm wondering about is stretching. You know, the involuntary stretching one does when one wakes up? I haven't stretched since pre-op, I guess the meds stifle the urge? Then yesterday, just before the bad dizziness hit me again, I'd stretched - a big one. Completely involuntarily.
Then last night, I woke up twice, and both times I woke up stretching, and again was hit with a bout of dizziness. Does this indicate something's not quite right?
I am starting to be quite concerned.
