Methadone detox struggle?
I have been on methadone maint. for 4 years due to a hydrocodone addiction that was prescribed for spinal fusion operation that failed.I was in severe withdrawal one day from running out of Vicodin,and in total desperation I enrolled at the methadone clinic for a dose of 40 mg. to get me out of what was a hellish,sickness that was unbearable at the time.So fast forward 4 years later and I have gradually and painfully lowered my dose from 85mg. to 31mg.Even lowering 1mg a week is difficult.I seem to get sick before my dose is due.I tried Suboxone,that was weak and didn't work.Rapid detox has been a idea to consider,but lately I hear horror stories about deaths and clinics being sued.Has there been any news about other treatments lately?Or can you share your treatment if any?
