It'll be 11 or 12 beers the day before I start Nardil.
The doc gave me clonidine just in case I had a rise in blood pressure. I haven't taken it yet. He said take it the night before, and one in the morning.
I'm starting on Sunday because my wife will be off work and ready for the 911 call if necessary.
I won't be drinking anything (I never did drink wine or hard liquor) once I start Nardil.
Vomiting from withdrawal from alcohol? I've never vomited, or even passed out from drinking. I think the clonidine and xanax are "just in case".
I can't wait much more than 12 hours. When on Prozac I could get through the 72 hours, each day getting better feeling. But I had to clear the system of Prozac on Dec. 1. That's why I think it's hard now to get the 72 hours in. Deeply depressed.
Old? You're only coming on 56.
2 years and 40 days in Vietnam with the Marines will get me through. I'm still tough and want to do it my way.
