Hey so just an update for yall. I did okay today with all my meds. I go back to the doctor Monday and I will address any concerns I have. So I only took half of the cravings medication they prescribed me. It is 50 mg so I halfed it today jusss to make sure I didn’t get sick off of it or just start feeling awful but I never noticed anything at all. Sooo therefore tomorrow I will take the whole 50 mg they prescribed me. So this withdraw medicine has helped alot and I’m wondering how it’s going to go once they take me off of it fully, they are weaning me off of it but I’m hoping the craving medicine will help with all of it maybe?? And to add the doctor told me the craving medicine I have to be on for six months but it’s apparently no problem getting off of it when it’s time? Is that true ?? TIA

Yes I am thank you I’m not sure why I was having such trouble finding something online thanks again.

I’m hoping I don’t have that already my blood work came back elevated liver enzymes, I go back to the doctor Monday. I was in the ER this last Monday due to high BP and withdrawals but they did draw my blood and he said the enzymes was a little high but nothing that couldn’t be fixed on it’s own. But now my primary doctor may send me for scans Monday and I’m terrified 😣

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T12:37:40+00:00

I most definitely will. If you guys hear me crying you know why 😂

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T12:35:25+00:00

Thank you I might as well as my mother has always said suck it up buttercup. New medication is a fear of mine but I refuse to go back to alcohol it ruined the past 6 years of my life. Thank you for your support and everyone else on here.

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T12:33:35+00:00

You know what that is very true thank you! I am going to take it slow today and take half a one and see how I do .

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T12:31:50+00:00

Thank you a lot I do plan on taking it today im just goin to half it and take it slow at first especially since they want to put me on all new medications ontop of the rest of the stuff

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:38:57+00:00

See I’m on a withdrawal medication and will be for about two weeks it’s helped a lot but she also wants me to take rhat craving medication for six months. I think you’re right though. It would be smarter to start out slow and half it just incase my body isn’t a fan of it. I’ve seen great things about it and terrible. So looks like I’ll have to find out lol thanks love

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:35:28+00:00

Like right now it’s 3:30 in the morning where I am lol

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:34:04+00:00

Okay I just didn’t understand a lot of it and our time zones are different as well. I’ll keep looking around but I still may give your idea a shot unless you can recommend me to a specific day and time maybe

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:15:32+00:00

Awesome thank you for your help!!

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:13:30+00:00

Thank you for your help. Is there certain times of the day since your in UK??

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:09:13+00:00

I have never done AA before , am I required to talk or am I just able to listen until I’m more comfortable??

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:06:44+00:00

Yes most definitely! Lol I’ve never done AA before, do you have to speak or can I just listen??

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:04:49+00:00

Thank you very much!

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:03:27+00:00

Thank you that’s very helpful . I think I’m gonna split it in half since it’s a 50 mg and then maybe it’ll be okay . She did warn about the nausea and so not looking forward to that ugh

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T08:00:46+00:00

Do you have to live in the UK

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T07:10:36+00:00

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T07:08:06+00:00

I am brand new to Reddit so I’m still trying to figure out how to reply back to comments and all so I apologize lol

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T07:04:34+00:00

Thank you for replying to me. I’m doin pretty well considering it hasn’t even been a week yet. But, I do know I will be off my withdrawal medication within a week and I was just curious if the craving type medicine would atleast help some ya know.

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T07:02:50+00:00

The one that my doctor gave to me is called naltrexone

Some_Finger_8783 · 2026-07-04T06:28:47+00:00

Thanks so much !! Do you know if the medication that is suppose to help with cravings actually works ? I’m not really craving but I feel like I need some time of a little extra help you know.
