Well, my wife and my doc won out and I did start methadone this morning. I took my last OC on Friday, so by this morning I was pretty much feeling like crap...hadn't slept all weekend, and the guy I normally cop'ed from has been on Sups for the past month, doing great and didn't want to participate in helping me score. CRAP! That was pretty much the worst weekend I've ever had!
He started me on a pretty low dose, 10mgs 3 x's daily. Even though I still feel a little crappy, I can tell it helped with some (all be it a little) of the w/d's. I'm taking it for chronic pain, not necessarily to stay well, so I know my dose will be much lower than some of you folks. (and low enough so that I to use when it comes my way. If ONLY it comes my way! :)
After my doc found out I was shooting my OC, he lowered my dose knowing he was going to move me over to methadone, so I know I will have a relatively easy go of it. I understand it can take a while for the body to adjust. Here's to hoping it doesn't take too long! :confused: HUMPH...
