I have been an opiate user for bout 10 years now. Started with bth and that turned into a 2 g a day habit rather quickly. I did a medical detox and was pretty much comatose for 8 days, of which I only remember 3. I haven't touched that since 05, but had since gotten my hands on oxycodone, contin, any cet, you name it. I soon got sick and tired of waking up sick and tired and a friend introduced me to suboxone. I tend to go back and forth. I have finally decided enough is enough and snagged 4, 8 mil strips and cut the first one into quarters and did a quarter in the morn and one before bed, second one I cut in to 1/6 and did the same morn, evening routine. By the time I'd gotten to my last strip I was dosing once daily with 1/6. First 2 days without were ok, now tho I haven't had more than a few sporadic hours of sleep and I wish someone would drop kick me in the spine. It's day 10 and the other 2 times ive dt'd it only took me a week to be ok. I'm on the verge of eating tramadol, but I'm not real clear on if that would be a bad idea and restart the whole process. I have been eating 800 mil ibpr and gabapentin along with flexoril and 20 mil adderall. I copped 2 ambien and am hoping I get a freakin full nite of sleep. Any advice is really appreciated.
I think Tramadol would be fine b/c its not a narcotic and theres really very little chance for an addiction. I know its derived frm narcotics but I have taken it myself while in limbo from oxy's. Although it doesn't compare to the pain relief oxy's bring it still helps with the pain and muscle soreness from withdrawal.
