Hello everybody...
I'd like to first off thank-you for reading this if you have any experience or advice you could offer please don't hesitate...
I had an injury 7 yrs. ago...when it first happened they had me on IV morphine and I was able to self medicate every 7 minutes...I did that for 8 days...then they put me on Darwin I think they were called I had problems filling the script for them a lot of pharmacy s didn't carry it...From there I went on to codeine, then oxycocet...when I got up to 15 oxycocets a day my doctor switched me to Oxycontin first 10mg every 6 hours and eventually I was up to 180 mls. a day...***please note I weigh under 100 lbs...it took close to 2 yrs. to get to that high of a tolerance for me...I was only using them for pain...However when my doctor realized that the doses were getting too high he then switched me again to morphine...well last year and 7 surgeries later I don't have the pain as bad as I had for the past 6 yrs...so I was excited thinking I could just stop the morphine...well to my dismay I could not get off of it tho I didn't need it mentally or for pain anymore my body needed it...so after a summer of struggles and research I went onto methadone...So now I have been on methadone for over a year and I do not see a doctor for it so I went from 85mls. a day down to 10 mls every other day when I can go that long...
My thing is how long should I stay on 10 mls. before I start weaning myself from there and then do I go to 9 mls. a day and then how long should I do 9mls. for etc...etc...??
So again I will say thank-you for taking the time to read this if you have an opinion on this I'd love to hear from you all...
Have a safe evening everyone...
Just wanna get off the meth...
