Day 5 no opiates and fever??

[Caroliina]

I've posted in other threads but I have a question to you all who have overcome opiate addictions. My addiction is my prescribed 10mg Percocet 75/ month and 20-30g of Kratom daily. I am on day 5 and I'm feeling bad again, after feeling like I was making progress. The physical symptoms went away enough for me to workout yesterday. However, today I am running a low grade fever, with chills and body aches. I don't want to move. Im freezing and my appetite is gone again. Is this a coincidence? I have not relapsed at all. So confused and feel so tired of feeling sick

Your immune system is weakened during WD. It's possible you caught a cold.

I got real sick once a few days after stopping. I went through what should have been my last crappy day and was feeling a lot better. Then I fell asleep and woke up in a lot of pain; muscles and body ached horribly. Turns out I had gotten sick, and was one of the few times I've needed to take antibiotics to get rid of it.

When I first felt the muscle pain again I thought I had somehow gone back into WDs, but it was some kind of cold.

just hang in there wont be long before you are living the sober life and yes ^ you prob caught a cold or the flu or something
see if some ibuprofen helps
trust many people would rather take a cold etc over an addiction to opiates anyday

and dont try and stress yourself out until you are in the clear that means no gym etc let your body recover before doing anything strenuous
