No vax for me update from 06:00 post my wife received the j&j

[Duncanpup]

I have fever temp taken three times , I didn’t argue it’s not my way. I figured out reason why I have fever like 100. My injection for my alcoholism I received it yesterday one shot month naltrexone. Compared to taking pill once a day. I been eating naltrexone for awhile it works yet my Dr said we can switch to injections. Besides Paxil it’s only meds I take at 55.

In January we switched to shot and I noticed after I get my shot. My lips blister I am slamming waters for a good day dehydration it is like when you first start taking it pill form in awhile you get used to it. Not sure why injection does this monthly. I never put it together injection side effects thirsty lips blisters = fever for maybe 24 hours.

I waited on injections my wife and I together were one. Yet I am resting easy now since she got her injection. Her fight with pneumonia this year I have to call and reschedule my appointment. No big deal I feel I’ll take being sober.

2. Well that kinda sucks!

Hope you're able to go back and get your shot soon. It's good that it's J&J, so you'll only have to go once. Be sure to go back, I hear that vaccine is effective against the South African strain as well as the others. I don't think they know enough yet about the Pfizer or Moderna shots to say if they're as effective. There are pluses and minuses to all of them, but get your shot! Congratulations on staying sober, too! That's just as important, if not more important.

3. Lip blisters.

Sounds terrible!
Glad you both got the shots!
Also the naltrexone. I know that's used as a treatment in Finland.

7. I have never heard of medicine for alcoholism.

I have a family line with alcoholism in the history and one particular brother I could never imagine coming off alcohol. Does it really help? What does it do for you? And yes, "I’ll take being sober." Good for you, that is truly a hard one.

9. Naltrexone works for me friend

It’s called Sinclair method I always failed at AA dm if you care to I’ll try answers any ?

10. Thank you for the information and willingness to share.

I have used chantix to help me quit smoking. What I found is it muffled the urges for another cig. What is the essence of the drug you take? What is it doing to help you fight the urge to drink. Thanks in advance. Honestly, watching the relationship of alcohol with brother, I could never cavalierly demand he quit with a program like AA. I know it helps a lot of people but my struggle with cigs gives me more compassion with my brother's issues.

11. I'm not sure

Naltrexone has shut down any need for alcohol is all I can say. I read it blocks the brain from feeling any pleasure in drinking

12. Basically the same thing with Chantix and smoking. Good to know because

my brother has three kids, it is genetic and two of the three have issues as they advance in adulthood. I had never herd of it. Now, go enjoy your dawg.... I love you posts.
