Healed after 12 years!

[[Buddie]]

So good to read this, I'm very happy for you and thank you so much for coming back to share with the rest of us, it means a lot.

I'm wondering if you can expand on the physical symptoms you suffered with.  And have they abated 100%?

Congrats again to you, wishing you and your wife all the best.

Mr. B,

Wow fantastic to hear that you are 100% (probably 110%, right?)    Congratulations!

Your [...] is a testament in courage and perseverance! It is also a tale of warning; cold-turkey is not a good way to stop [...] use at all!  PAWS, Prolonged acute withdrawal syndrome is very real as a result of CT and some people have it.

I am also so inspired by the love and support of your wife    Many of us could never have made it through this without that love and support.. It made my marriage [...], God truly does work in mysterious ways... 

Again Mr. B, congratulations on getting your life back. And thank you for the beautifully encouraging and inspiring words of success!

Streaming tears.     Your [...] means so much.  Thank you and also thank you to [...]. for supporting you.  I want so bad to be [...] too.

Mr. B., I have a question, did it just suddenly lift one day?  It happened to me a few months ago for the evening ... I was in heaven to feel normal.   I remember it so well, I just laid on the couch and read a book like a normal person without one single care in the world.     I am so tired of feeling so horrid and so injured and so damaged.

Thank you for the [...].

I love this [...]!  And yay for your wife.  That's true love.

Thank you all for the kind words and well wishes! 

[...] My symptoms would come and go for the last couple years but everytime they came back they were less intense until they just vanished. I still can't believe it myself!

[...] If you go through my history I'm sure my wife listed my worst symptoms. As far as what is left for the physical symptoms I can't really know for sure what is [...] related and what is just normal aging. All I can say is I feel like a 'NORMAL' 47 year old man and life is good again!

Mr B.

awesome [...]!


i am not scared by this because i truly believe i am the worse case scenario. i am 5 years and still with horrible head symptoms and full body squeezing, crushing, pressure neuropathy, everywhere i am totally confined and restrained. it's like my whole body and brain is still in shackles. Matt Samet says it best in his "death grip"...

 although i have had some [...] good improvements and a few partial windows i am now so sick of not being able to be back fully in my life and i have so much to do and catch up on. i am a long time user but mostly too many cold turkey and rapid taper attempts one after another for years upon years. i am [...] sure that has hurt me more than just being on the [...]'s.

i talk with both Una and Baylissa all the time for support. i really [...] one day i can see the light and feel love again. i am truly happy for you and thank you for coming back here and sharing this with all of us.

Mr B.

Thank you for responding to my question,  you have really given me and several other protracted peeps some much needed [...] today.  I am so happy for you.  Please be very cautious with what you put in your mouth.  Have a great life, you sure deserve it Mr. B.

So happy to hear that you healed after so many years...Mr B.  I was a cold turkey several times....and the last time was horrific.  I reinstated after 3 months and tapered. It has been 6 years of slowly [...] with setbacks along the way. I had to take antibiotics for a tick bite and then prednisone for back and hip [...] that followed.  Prednisone has side effects and also withdrawal symptoms which added more misery that I did not need. 
Your success [...] gives [...] to the protracted who are still waiting to heal.
Thank you for giving us [...] !!!!!!!!!!
