I took 70mg of methadone Friday morning at 530 and I have been taking suboxone since yesterday morning but I have to take 1 whole 8 when I wake up and if just barely has me feeling well. I still have cold chills but not puking but havnt been able to eat in two days. Then I have to take one at night just to sleep. Tomorrow morning at 530 will be 78 hours. I hope the methadone will be gone so the sub can do what it needs to do. What do you guys think?

I am very happy that you've done so well. In most cases, one must be in full withdrawal, again, before restarting Suboxone.

The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

Are you still PWD free?
