Hey there PGS, Your symptoms could be from everything said! I would totally lean toward your pain causing the symptoms. If you have good pain control and suddenly forget to medicate-it does cause those symptoms. Major ass side effects of uncontrolled pain are exactly what you described! ! Just like a flu! Have dealt with it a long time and easy to recognize. Particular in others, as my pain is fairly well managed with very little, these days-thanks to mmj!

Even though I do not feel this is the case with you. Some people have 'withdrawal' from mj or anything they take. I do not think you stopped medicating long enough to have any symptoms of withdrawal. I met a young man a couple of years ago and he quit, for a job interview! He was not in any pain, but very much on edge, pale and nervous.

For most pain medications, we have another chemical to counter-act it! Pain is like a medication of 'counteraction'-you gotta have your:rastasmoke: ! That other stuff has too much OTC med in it that will harm your body!

It is never good to suddenly quit any medication. Not even coffee! Even though it doesn't hurt us to stop drinking coffee (as said) you do have withdrawal. I quit drinking coffee for about 20 years and started drinking again last winter. I can hardly get out of bed and do anything until I have my coffee. The past 2 mornings, I was real lucky, my brother-in-law gave it to me in bed. My sister doesn't drink it and he likes feeling needed! And I cannot get anything done without it! I cannot drink coffee after 12P.M. or it keeps me awake all night! I can definitely feel when it leaves my body, a little bit of 'pulsating.'

Perhaps you should keep some hard candy on hand for an emergency, or call a pal! pr
