FOR THE PROCESS OF THIS ANSWER WE ARE GOING TO CONSIDER THIS A LONGTERM HEAVY USER. Morphine withdrawals or DT's (delirium tremens is the medical name ) starts out as severe body-aches, head aches, just pain in general and will progress to cold sweats nausea and sever diarrhea. These symptoms can and for most people do last several days. If you are a heavy user either do not quit or wean yourself gradually by cutting the dosage down over days or weeks if you have the luxury. Never ever go cold turkey if You wish to avoid the DTs. This is speaking from 20 years of elicit opiate use.

What are morphine sulfate withdrawal symptoms?

Morphine Sulfate withdrawals are the same as most any other opiate/opioid (with some exceptions and slight variations).Opiates/opiates come from the Poppy plant, or are synthetic derivatives, and Morphine is found in raw opium directly.Morphine withdrawal symptoms (or Opiate withdrawal symptoms in general) are as follows: Sweats, Chills, Muscle Aches, Diarrhea, Vomiting/Nausea, High Blood Pressure, Fatigue, Restless Leg Syndrome (leg aches), Insomnia, Severe Depression, Heightened Sensitivity to Pain, Dysphoria, Muscle Spasms, Allergy Symptoms (yawning, watery eyes, sneezing).They generally last for 5-10 days, with some symptoms lasting longer (insomnia, depression, fatigue). Morphine withdrawals are exactly like Heroin withdrawals, because they are almost exactly the same drug. In fact, the proper chemical name for Heroin is Diamorphine. When heroin is ingested and reaches the brain, it is turned into morphine.Morphine (and Heroin) are in a class of drugs called opiates, which are used medically to relieve pain.Morphine Withdrawals are very painful, but are NOT deadly unlike Benzodiazapine (Valium, Xanax, Klonapin, etc.) and Alcohol withdrawal.There is plenty of information online about Opiate withdrawals, so any further information is just a click away. If you or someone you know is going through Opiate withdrawals, good luck and stay strong. If you aren't, you never, ever want to go through it. It was one of the most painful experiences of my life.Benzo and alcohol withdraw is not DEADLY. Also heroin is not used medically to relieve pain. The withdrawal symptoms are right though. As having gone through it personally a few times the worst and most prominent are probably Restless Leg Syndrome, insomnia, diarrhea, sweating, and pretty severe back and leg pain. It'll dumb down every day for about 4 days, and then you'll be fine.

Why does mrs dubose suffer from fits when jem and scout visit her?

Mrs. Dubose suffers from fits always, not only when Jem and Scout came. But, she suffers from fits because she was addicted to morphine, a strong painkiller. She had asked Jem to read to her because she wanted something to distract her from her addiction. But Atticus said later that she probably never heard a word they told her because she was only thinking about getting her morphine pill, after Jem and Scout left. Good Luck!
