Will I withdrawl from methadone after taking a low dose for a few days?
I have been taking pain pills for about 5 years now due to a back injury. I do not take many at all, either about 5 reg vics a day no more than 2 at a time or maybe 4 7.5 percs a day no more than one at a time Problem is I want to stop taking them but I go thru a mild to moderate withdrawal. I hate the fact my body is dependant on them. So I have been taking a half of a 10mg methadone twice a day to help me thru the withdrawal from the vics or percs. This seems to help, and is enough to do the trick, but my question is, after taking a half of a 10mg methadone once or twice a day for about days will this help me quit the pills without withdrawal, or once the methadone is out of my system will I start the cycle over? I have a low tolerance to pain pills still thank god, I have managed to not over due the usage, but I hate the way I feel if I do not have them and I want so bad to get this over with and never touch them again... pain or not Can someone please give me some insight My whole plan was to stop the pain pills and make 3 or 4 10mg methadone last me days or more, then stop taking them and bypass the crappy feeling Will this work, or will my body become dependant on the methadone after a low dose like that for a few days? And will I then go thru methadone withdrawals? Pain pill withdrawals all over, or what??? Please help K but taking them for a few days, will that cause me to withdrawal from them? Will this help the withdrawal from the pain pills at all? Or once they are out of my system will the withdrawal from the perc vics start all over?
