First of all, you have my utmost respect for what you are doing.
Drug interactions can get interesting. Suboxone will block the effect of an opiate drug such as morphine or codeine.
I guess my real question to you is, what does the doctor that is diagnosing this as a kidney stone say?
You may find them very hesitant to prescribe anything. This is not uncommon so don't think they know your history, it is because many addicts do claim kidney stones to get drugs. It happens at most ER's every day.
Make sure they know about the suboxone, it is critical. A good doctor will take the time and listen to your concerns. You are the patient, the consumer, demand that they listed to you.
Good luck
