Ive searched and cant find anything.. this is so weird to me. I am a long time opiate addict (morphine, heroin) and have been off suboxone for almost 2 years. In this time kratom is the only opiate ive used. Ive used kratom several times throughout my life and even developed an addiction a while back, it took me down and I quit after seeing how unforgiving the plant really is.
Saturday I took a dose of 2g red vein and 1g green vein and went to a show, after a period of abstinence for at least 2 months. I knew I would regret this but did it anyway. Sunday I decided to take another 1.5g of red vein and chill out with a movie. That was my last dose, by monday night I had a fever, aching joints, cold sweats, hot chills, constipation (im sure will be followed by full on diarrhea) sinuses all fucked up chest is congested feel like I got pneumonia...I am SICK.
The last many times ive done a single dose of kratom after a period of abstinence its like my body remembers how addicted I am, andI get sick. oh, the insanity. Why do I continue to put this in my body knowing once I do I have to continue use? Will I never be able to use this recreationally? Part of me has always wanted to take another dose to see if the symptoms stop, to prove to myself once and for all this is truly w/d symptoms from kratom but I never do because I know I will only be prolonging my recovery. This time im tempted. Because I go to the doctor everytime and they say its either flu or upper respiratory infection - I just want to know the truth! Has anyone ever experienced this? Is this in fact kratom withdrawl, every single time?
