You don’t say what type of pain medications, but usually detoxing is like a really bad case of the flu. so head aches could be part of it, but the back pain? did you have a back injury that caused you to go on meds in the first place? Are you in counseling or meetings or anything to help.. If you want to chat read my profile and email me. God Bless ReggieR
