   Vicodin Withdrawal Question (Addiction & Recovery board)

11th June 2007
Southbeach:

That leg and arm sensation is strange. I'm five weeks into detox, 12-20 pill a day habit, and my restless, sleepy leg and arm syndrome was gone in two weeks. If it flares up again, I will post about it on your thread.

Are you exercising your legs and arms regularly? I know that a fatigued muscle is not as restless.

The numb, tingling feeling has me wondering if there are meds involved. Are you taking any beta blockers that treat anxiety or blood pressure, like Atenolol? Certain beta blockers slow the heart down and help with anxiety, but a common side effect is just what you describe. I can't take beta blockers for just that reason.

Good luck,

Mike
