Methadone is probably one of the worst ideas for long-term pain ever and if you ever would possibly say there's no high on methadone you're insane. Why do you think there is long lines outside those methadone clinics everywhere? Because people get high on it. Granted you don't get high on it forever but they're still getting something off of it and they're still get going up on their dose and they're also shooting it up. I've seen it with my own eyes and it is insane. Just take your Suboxone, ween down off that, because methadone is very very bad.

It's ashamed Drs don't understand the long relief and no high methadone gives. It's a wonderful drug for long term chronic pain but they want to put us on something that works for 3 hours and then it's take another pill or start withdrawing. It's the same here in Mississippi. I've been on it for 15 yrs now all the sudden my Dr retired and now can't find a Dr to prescribe it . It's horrible. Everyone needs to contact the CDC

I think Foz was lying - he is hooked on the methadone and his Dr. should have seen his opiate tolerance; and has finally realized it. I'm sure Foz is in a methadone clinic somewhere.
