How To Convert To Suboxone For Pain Management? (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

I have been in Pain Management for 15 years. I have the usual round of diagnoses. Herniated discs at cervical, thoracic and lumber spine. Bone spurs through out. I have spinal cord compression in my neck. Pain. I just switched from 16mg of Exalgo (Dilaudid ER) with Fentanyl ir for breakthrough- back to 100mcg Fentanyl patches with 15mg Morphine 3x a day for breakthrough. I feel like a trapped rat. To the outside world I'm a professional woman, mother of 3 grown children. I'm no different from any other junkie though. I wanted to go into suboxone assisted substance abuse treatment. Then I found out that, for quite a while, you have to be at the program every day to pick up meds (and go to therapy/group). I'd lose my job!
I can walk into Pain Management, ask for Suboxone and leave with a 30 day prescription. Yet I can go to the local harm reduction clinic and they give me one day supply and 2 hours of counseling. I'm the same person whichever way I'm treated! I'm confused.
Has anyone here been through the process of deciding where or whether to seek Suboxone treatment?
