Ellabella,

No, sore achey throats are usually a cold or "bug" coming on. Or maybe allergies?

I would get night sweats, bad dreams, tossing and turning a lot, etc. Those were my side effects from coming off the poison.

Good on your 3 Days!! Whoopee!! :goodjob:

Hi Ella,
Great job on a great start! You too brown!
Maybe it's just summer sweats and a cold. How you feeling otherwise Ella?

day 3 AF

Hmmm yes there are actually a lot of bugs going round work at the moment so probably more likely to be that (i think i'm thinking that everything is alcohol (or non-alcohol) related at the mo lol)

So i'm on day 3 and really excited to be heading for day 4!! This will be a MASSIVE milestone for me. I've only done 4 days AF once before in around, i think 12ish years.... i feel good, but have to say i've thought about Al more today than in days 1 and 2 (in an "i want some" kind of way), but i got rid of all the booze in the house at the weekend, and came straight home from work tonight without calling at the shop, so house is booze free and i will be too :-))

Hope everyone else is doing well and feeling ok. xxx

Hi Ella, well done on your achievement. I did get sore throats when I had a drinking binge, alcohol can cause oesophegitis, (inflammation of the throat) drink plenty of water or milk it will soon ease.
Good luck.

Great job Ella and Brown! Keep up the good work! I had a sore throat the first few days as well...I think I wasn't getting enough sleep and my immune system was down a bit more than normal (not to mention my entire body/mind were being changed significantly by not having any wine flowing through my veins). I really started to take my vitamins seriously and tried my best for more sleep and the sore throat went away.
