I Need To Find A Doctor Indianapolis In That Will Prescribe Methadone For Chronc Pain (Page 2)

I AM TRYING TO FIND A DOCTOR THAT WILL PRESCRIBE METHADONE FOR CHRONIC PAIN. ITS COMMONLY KNOWN AS DOLOPHINE AND COMES IN 10MG TABLETS. I USUALLY TAKE 40MG PER DAY. IT IS SO MUCH CHEAPER AND MORE CONVENIENT THAN CLINICS. I AM TOO FAR AWAY FROM CLINIC ANYWAY. THANK YOU

That's amazing news, Demi!! I'm so happy that you can finally get some medical help that won't put you deeply in debt (I'm familiar with this as a med student with no insurance), and it may just be the answer to your prayers. If you let them know your problem, they may be able to use the pain medication they'll be giving you after the surgery anyway to put you on a sort of taper schedule. At least you will be in a hospital setting with round the clock care and access to doctors who can monitor you and help with withdrawals the right way. In the meantime though, the high dose loperamide has been a miracle withdrawal treatment for hundreds if not thousands of people, even really severe heroin addicts. I wish you the best of luck and God bless!

Everyone, Methadone is very addictive, but is also one of the best opiates to fight pain withoug passing on a large amount of euphoria. It is just as safe, if not safer than just about all other opiates. Unfortunately not a lot of doctors understand Methadone, which is why we have all these false rumors. Methadone saved my life, PERIOD!! The half life is up to 36 hours which is why it is safe and stable. But is also why it has longest withdraw period (methadone = [14-21+ days of withdraw if quit cold turkey] vs. (OxyCodone = [4-6+ days cold turkey])
A long Methadone withdraw period can be completely avoided tho if your doctor does a proper taper. That involves a ong slow taper, with plateauing periods between large decreases. You want to decrease slowly all the way down to 1 or 2 mg a day. If you just lower to 5mg a day, and then quit, you could be feeling like crap for over a week. Don't rule Methadone out because of rumors, it could save your life.. It saved mine.

Kaylee,
You sound like a very kind and caring person. You have every right to be concerned about the children. I hope there are resources to help with the children too.

There is a petition to get some people in power involved with us keeping our medications and being able to get medical care. It was originally addressed to the state of AZ and the federal government. The states of the people who sign are being added, along with the federal government.

Please click and sign. Every signature is so important. If we don't get something going for ourselves, we are going to be without our medications that we depend on.

Looking for doctor in Indianapolis who prescribes methadone besides a clinic. An actual doctors office. If they except Medicaid even better. Thanks

Be very careful with loperamide. It has a very low overdose threshold. The DEA doesn't mind people dying, so long as the rest of us don't get pain relief, so it's not scheduled. Google the specs.

Omg I'm still crying from reading your posts. I have lived through pure hell and torture thst would make any morbid disfunctional childhood seem like paridise.. I won't go into detail on that. Your right everyone says their story is the worst by far and are always or at least most of the time looking for sympathy handouts. I too have fallen victim to addiction in past, unfortunately mine is everything I ever try. Pain pills being the worst though, I'm still fighting that and alcohol off. I pray for you and all other addicts out there and always will. Look into a shot thst lasts 3 months called vivitrol it is suppose to keep withdrawal off for 90 days. Good luck, I know you need it, as do I and the rest of recovering addicts. God bless and good lucky on the no insurance thing too.

I agree I was on 9 10 my tabs a day for my chronic pain. Now I'm at 2 a day and I can't move I hurt so bad. My Dr is worried more about his license which I understand but this is my life. I could write a story but I'm in to much pain to at this time. I do know one thing I'm sick of being judged. I will die without help soon. Please help me my name is Rosa. I understand, I wanna live, they put Dogs down for less what makes me different? Just cause I'm human I should suffer? Methadone isn't a bad medication an the people who need it should be able to get it. Regardless

Hey bud this is probably really late but 1 thing that helps u relax is pot. But the thing that will help you get thru the first week is kratom. Taken in measured doses you can find on internet you can curb and even stop the withdrawal with kratom. But you must only take for a week or 2 at most in lower doses till nothing because it is addictive too. But make sure you taper to a low dose as low as 1 mg of methadonev over time a month or 2s time. Depends on how comfortable u want to be.

Hello, I too have had RSD since '91. Have been tring to find people that have this monster of a disease. My husband an family are a god send, but don't know my pain. We moved to Ind 5 weeks ago, an to my surprise I can't find a Dr that will give me my meds. So far no kinds of opioid medications at all. I have been on my meds all these years an these Drs here let me go cold turkey, I have been sick..which I know anyone that has been through it understands. Does anyone know DR's or clinics that will help me. I'm in 3rd stage an hurting so bad. I'm in Ind, but only 25 mins from OHIO. Anyone that can help me, is appreciated. TY

Go to any Methadone clinic at 5am any day of the year and you will see Tens of thousands of Demi's.. If our government gave a Damn about reducing the phenomenon known as the never-ending pattern of undesirable people who multiply or reproduce.. as she proves, Demi grew up in tragic circumstances and was never given a sliver of hope or opportunity to due to her parents deviant nature... Most likely demi didn't graduate high school, and instead ended up having kids by random undesirable males out of wedlock without any way to care or nurture the poor things, and the cycle of tragic waste of humanity evolves.. MANDATORY HYSTERECTOMIES FOR ALL ON PUBLIC ASSISTANCE, MEDICAID, WELFARE, CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, HOMELESS ETC.. THIS WOULD MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE AND THE minimize the case of a Demi and the TRAGEDY OF EVOLVING CYCLE REPRODUCTION OF Undesirable generations breeding

It is extremely hard (almost impossible) to find a doc that will actually prescribe it. So if you really need methadone your best bet is to go to a methadone clinic. There's 2 in Indianapolis, midtown and ITC. if you take that route midtown is the better of the two but be careful and do your research, methadone is a b**** to come off of.
