Avatar n tn Does anyone know if there are any treatment facilities available for EBV? or any kind of specialist? My doctor has kind of dismissed me.... not that shrugging his shoulders at my questions were much help to me anyway.
Avatar f tn And never again did i try methadone after that. I had 2 friends die in jail from methadone withdrawls. The goverment knows the long term side effects of methadone. That's why they make u sign this paper that says u can't sue the clinics.
Avatar f tn Hello everyone! Let me start by giving some background. I was addicted to heroin... using quite a lot daily for almost 5 years. Well I found out I was pregnant and got into rehab right away. I went in to a place that was supposed to give me suboxone or subutex. Well when I talked to that facilities doctor they said "we can't handle your situation here, with you being pregnant and using such high amounts we need to send you to another treatment center".
1236006 tn?1267890969 I visited some recovery facilities in Texas and Oklahoma and found lots of confusion and conflict. Detox facilities said that they were using the durg for opiate addiction detox. "Licensed" doctors said that they required a "contract" with the paitient to control the use of the drug. One doctor said he will no longer prescribe suboxone due to paiient abuse. Patients say that the drug is "too expensive" so they switch to other opiates like Loritabs or Oxy.
Avatar f tn I need some honest opinions please............ I recently started a methadone treatment program. I am doing the 6 month program. This is my 3rd day of treatment. I am starting at one dose of 30mg of methadone. Is this a good number to start with??? TOO HIGH of a number?? PRETTY LOW of a number??? I have hears many horror storeis of people and methadone, about trading one drug for another and all that.
Avatar m tn ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE WANTING TO BEAT THEIR ADDICTION HAVE BEEN TRYING TO QUIT BY GOING TO SUBOXONE DR.S OR SUBOXINE TREATMENT FACILITIES AND ARE BEING TOLD THAT IF YOU TAKE A VERY HIGH AMOUNT OF A STRONG OPIATE THAT SUBOXONE WONT HELP. THIS IS VERY FALSE INFORMATION!!! I WENT TO A PLACE CALLED STEPPING STON CENTER FOR REVOVERY IN JACKSONVILLE FL. FOR SIX WEEKS WHERE THEY DETOXED ME OFF OF 7-8 OPANA FOURTY'S A DAY TAKEN UP THE NOSE WITH SUBOXONE AND I HAD ALMOST ZERO WITHDRAWL SYMPTOMS.
Avatar m tn im 16 years old and im addicted to oxycontin, i recently went to the doctors and got recommended to call a methadone clinic. whats the chance that i will be accepted for treatment?
Avatar f tn He told me at that point, as he was so depressed, and I helped him get onto the methadone program. Now, reading all your comments, I wonder if that was the right thing to do. My question is, has anyone done the rapid detox, or heard from anyone else about its success rate?
Avatar f tn I'm the type of person that reads everything. I know this clinic very well and benzos are allowed as long as they are legally prescribed. The doctor told me it would be no problem as long as I had a prescription however the counselor was the issue. She went back to the first drug test after I received my legal prescription and used that to get me kicked out.
Avatar m tn Well, your hunt ends here as with the world-class facilities available at PSRI hospital in New Delhi, you can get all medical facilities for kidney transplant procedure at reasonable cost. Meet the senior consultants here at the hospital and give at end to your worries.
Avatar f tn I scored some methadone to get clean years ago. I have been ended up on methadone for so long, it was the worst thing I have ever lived through. I won't say that methadone never helps people, but if you can't control Oxys, good chance methadone will be not different. I spun out of control with street methadone. It is the opiate that came the closest to killing me. Under a doctors care is one thing, but doing it on your own is a dangerous game, I've been there.
Avatar m tn Let's start by saying that I suffer from a Generalized Anxiety Disorder and ongoing Depression. The severity of the depression comes in "phases" (for lack of a better word) in that it'll be subdued for 9-12 months and then all of a sudden I feel like I'm heading back into the abyss. Well I'm back on the slippery slope and I can feel it getting a little worse every morning, every night.
Avatar m tn One thing though...many, many in patient facilities use SUBOXONE as part of their treatment. There are quite a few physicians, as well. Unfortunately, there are many who use the drug as a financial opportunity. But, it's available extensively. The article makes it sound difficult to get. In my state it's paid for by Medicade. Thanks again for sharing with everyone here. I'm so very sorry for your loss and hope you can heal and move on to a comfortable place.
Avatar f tn I want to be prepared if one of these days my doctor will give up on me! Does anyone on this forum know anything about Methadone Treatment and Suboxone Treatment? I have read a lot about Suboxone Treatment but I haven't found much on Methadone Treatment. I would really appreciate any advice!!! I can't even talk to my husband about this subject. He always tells me that I should just stop taking narcotics because he never would take them!
5772022 tn?1373978536 I was put on methadone 14 years ago for chronic pain. 4 years ago I was taken off of it cold turkey. In desperation a got into a methadone clinic. I'm finding that the liquid methadone doesn't seem to work on pain as the pills did. Is this In my head or is there really a difference. Also is this site for online addiction support or is it medical advice. Kind of confused on that issue.
408795 tn?1324935675 Has anyone on this forum been on treatment while being prescribed methadone? I'd like to hear from anyone who has done this SVR or not. I'm waiting to get accepted into a trial, the methadone limits my placement also another drug, I'm currently prescribed. The only one they were really concerned with was the methadone, I'm not in a maintenence program but I would like to hear from anyone.
877379 tn?1259664623 Treatment facilities unless they describe themselves specifically as Anorexia Programs are for all types of eating disorders. Sometimes people are severely underweight are pushed to go to treatment because they or someone who loves them are seriously concerned about their health. However, ALL forms of eating disorders can be seriously damaging to your health and to your emotional well-being which is also very important.
Avatar f tn Thanks, I really didn't expect to hear anything so soon - never did this type of communication before - its great! I read about the Thomas Recipe and used it with him last time and it worked well for 3 days, then he went to the Post Office. . . . . anyhow my husband is with him now and we know the 'rules of engagement' a little better (hopefully).
287578 tn?1198549844 Patients with untreated hepatocellular carcinoma only live for about 8-12 months, but this may be prolonged to 2-3 years with treatment. Treatment options include radiofrequency ablation and chemo-embolization (for tumors less than 5 cm in diameter). For more advanced cases, systemic chemotherapy (example: gemcitabine) may be attempted. There is a promising new drug, Sunitinib, which has recently been demonstrated to be active for this type of cancer.

3154120 tn?1343402249 this dr works for you you come in and see him and you tell him how much pain your in on a 1-10 scale and tll him what ur on the scale on those lousy pain meds and ask himif he can write something stronger/ i STILL DONT KNOW WHAT IS YOUR DIAGNOSIS IS OR IF THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE PLEASE SHARE AND I CAN TLL U WHAT yu should be on as after all my disoders Iv been on fntanyla, 15 mg oxycodone, up to 30 mg oxycodone and then for the fibro and nueralgia and neuropathy they added methadone 60 mg a day
Avatar f tn I'm guessing treatment facilities have changed in the past 25 years LOL, but I don't think the program/process has though. In long term treatment "30 days or more" is to get the person off using any drugs " crutch" within 7 to 14 days. I'm wondering how 30mg of methadone is more beneficial then 30mg of hydrocodone???
