I am currently been seing a great doctor for my back pain and now have been experienceing a horrible pain in my abdomen that know one can figure out I have had several tests but to no avail.

Any way I have a hard time keeping any medicine down and when I was in my Pain Clinic the other day to explain my problem I was 5 days early for my script and he would not fill my script for six days.

I have never had any addiction problems but now I am stuck with nothing at all and would like to know how to deal with the next few days.

I have a few hydrocodone from a denist visit will this help with any withdrawl symptons I might have?

I have been on methodone for 6 years for my back pain. I know how hard it is to go without. It does stay in your system for 2 to 3 days, so you really only have 3 bad days to go through. 'the vicodan will help the withdrawal some. Be careful about going to early they can kick you out for that Good luck Sweettea
 
Thanks Sweettea,

I managed to go through the last four days of my withdrawl with alot of support from my frienRAB and family and it made me realize how much of the pain was caused by the pills themselves. I am now only taking a portion of what I was taking before and am thankful that the doctor made me figure out things the hard way.
I will never be early on a script again, it is in my best interest to take my medication as perscribed even if I am sick and it doesn't stay down I would rather go one or two days without than 6 days without. It was very painful and the vicodin didn't really help much. I took alot of walks and drank a ton of water to try and help the detox. It has made me realize how badly I would like to be off the methadone for good which I am going to try to do with help of my doctor. Thanks for your response.:wave:
 
reduce your methadone as and when you can, if you pick yours up from the chemist once or twice a week, get a measuring syringe and take 1mg off a day until you start to feel rough(anxiety etc) and then stay on that dose, you'll get a good buzz squirting it down the sink, after 3 days at that dose never go back up, your body would be at that dose even though you might feel under the wheather, you should be able to drop 5ml a week/fortnight/month you'll get better and more your real self(old self),methadone is evil for constipation, this can make you feel like your dieing on its own, so take loaRAB of water and lactalose or movalat or some other product, use paractamol for fevers,shakes,headaches, they'll help(don't have more than 8/day(best kept to minimum)), if you are truely ready to start dropping you'll know. i've been on it many, many years, i've dropped from 75mg to 25mg this year, methadone can be half of the problems(physical,mental), methadone is a cheap dirty drug (almost as dirty as street iv gear is) and causes about as many problems, its cheap thats why its prescribed. as you get better and better you'll get more determined to get your real life back, so you can life a real life, with real emotions, crying and laughing feels so much better than being a drone on methadone, so i truely wish you well, you family sounRAB like their behind you, so i can honestly say i wish you well and i'll see you on the other side (the side of life), once your off
never let it temp you back nomatter what excuse your brain invents for you to take it( a treat cause you've done well, a blue moon, 3 minutes to life or anything), never let it take the lion out of your heart and your life out of your
loves.
truely i wish you wellllllll..........xxx
