Doctors Who Prescribe Methadone (Page 19)

I am addicted to strong pain meds and I am tired of having to come off of them, the withdrawal is awful. I went to a urgent care doc and was prescribed suboxone. I take anxiety meds too but he wants me to stop. I really need the anxiety meds but he wants me off them. How do I get him to change it from suboxone to methadone so I can take my anxiety meds?

Are you a vet? I have chronic pain and recently I now have tailbone pain which is worse than the chronic pain.
My doctor has not given me a diagnoses and refused a MRI. So now I can have a MRI, but he sent me to see a so called specialist psychiatrist who is rude and refused to tell me what he thought caused my pain? My GP chose this MD and I was railroaded into seeing him and was told that I could not go to my neurologist?! I got my records and he psychiatrist wrote negative stuff about me? I want to see some one who will help me not make up things about me? I am a vet and I thought I might get better care at VA, but I heard bad things about VA and long wait list. DO you think the VA could help me? I live in Washington state close to Ft. Lewis and American Lake.

I know a guy that had a messed up back and his Dr. gave him methadone. 10 mg white pills. And methadone is methadone, it's just that the liquid is faster acting and I don't think it lasts as long as the big wafers, ugh gross lol.

My kinfolk live in Pascagoula, Mississippi. In the 80s they had no clinics in that state, so my cousin drove to Mobile, Alabama on days he needed to go. Said it took åbout 45min. So I know there are clinics in that state. Good luck

I've been addicted to methadone for probably 10 years. I was addicted to opioids for five years and literally I have been taking pain medication from the time I was four years old on. By the time I was four I was addicted to Percocet. I had multiple surgeries done on my ears two or three times a year, so I really had enough pills to supply my addiction. I didn't even know what the hell I was doing at that age. Basically my whole addiction started due to OxyContin. Nobody had a clue what it was at the time. I just do not want to embarrass my family. I've never been arrested for drugs because I'm not an ***** and I know how to hide things and most importantly I need to find a Doctor who is willing to write me methadone preferably 10 mg tablets so I could take them five times a day throughout the day. I've been detoxing for a while but it's starting to catch up with me. I just don't want to have the same issue I had last time when I nearly escaped going to prison. The police officer tried to build a fake case on me basically because he knew that I was a drug addict and quite frankly I think he was jealous of the girl and the money and everything hanging off my arms. {edited for privacy}.

I have been on oxycodone and oxycontin for years. I had a call for a pill count on thursday but i had a appt on friday, so i went in friday with my 6 pills i had left because my appt was friday. I was having back surgery Monday and on Friday he let me go and gave me my last script. It's 6 weeks recovery, so how in the world can i find a new Doctor? Why i am on these meds is because i got into a car accident and broke my neck and much more things.

I don't really know why your Doctor wants u to stop your anxiety med while your on suboxone? But I do know that most Doctors have a problem with writing Methadone while a patient is on anxiety meds. You just have to try and get to know your Doctor and if you are not happy with them. Keep looking!

That's so crazy because I have been on methadone for 4years, I'm on 135mg and I'm on 2mg klonopins twice a day. As long as you don't take them 4hrs from the time you dose then your fine and obviously don't abuse your benzos. I live in Florida so I don't know what the deal is with everyone saying you cant take both

U don't want to come off methadone pal. Coming off Suboxen will be much quicker and easier, methadone is hell on earth for way to long. Take the sub route and be happy man.
