Hello: If this issue/info. helps, I would be very grateful to help a fellow chroni pain sufferer--who is fed up with taking a pain pill just to wake up and feel normal:

Briefly, I was admitted on 12/8 to 12/22; since my p/t for my knee surgery was going well, and not having difficulty with extreme pain. I made an agreement with my PCP and Psychiatrist, that we would taper me down from 4 Pcet/day to just 2/day & then go into hospital to Detox; Well, I should have done more research! 2 days after I was discharged, and took my final dose on 12/22; I started to get tired on Christmas with my famlly; then the next few days until today, were like H**ll !

My nurse printed me out a Profile on Suboxone; and it was only till yesterday; that I reallly took a good look at it, and to my astonishment, it says, ' that the patient should be graduallly/ carefullly weaned off the suboone' And also at night; shile sleeping you can have hallucinations; & when I was into Day2 of my Detox, I was having these symptoms at night; and then he dropped me down by 1/2 the dosage(approx= 3 2mg tabs, 2s/day) & I could tell that I was not feeling well; So, my Doctor, rushes me out/ before Christmas, & not informing me of the possibilityof having any mre Detox symptoms; And when I woke up had the runs, and fulll blsown Detox symptoms this AM; I wnet to his office, he was on vaation, wo I wne to the ER of the Hospital I was treated at, and my U/A and blood showed no optiates & blod Labs. were fine

I JUST WANTED THE ER DOC, & MY TREATING PSYCHTRST. TO ANSWER THE SIX MILLION $$ QUESTION, "HOW ON EARTH, COULD I BE IN FULL BLOWN DETOX, AFTER GOING THRU THE SUBOXONE PROTOCOL, AND BEING 1 WEEK SINCE I WAS DISCHARGED, WITH JUST MY TYLENOL & ALLEVE FOR MY KNEE SURGERY; AND PENDING BACK SURGERY? NOONE GAVE ME A LOGICAL, RATIONAL ANSWER!

SO, NOW I FEEL AS THOUGH I WASTED 2 weeks of my Health Insurance, time lost wages, etc.; Does anyone who has taken any optiates (e.g Pcet, V-ES) & went thru the Suboxone Detox Protocol; Have the same story? Or similar experience? I would greatly appreciate it!

Rickya44...I got an email saying you had replied to one of my postings. I wanted to answer your million dollar question, why is it someone can go through withdrawls days after the suboxone is out of your system. Let me tell you ( and y the way this scared the heck out of me ) I have read SO MUCH on suboxone because I have been on it 6 years, anyone who takes suboxone can have withdrawls for UP TO 8 WEEKS!!!!!!! Yes thats right and thats why I am so so so so so scared to get off of it. I refuse to go through withdrawls! Tell me what are you feeling right now? Body aches? chills, like your bones are being poked with needles every second! sweating, getting sick? Talk to me.

I am in Chicago and the time is 2:52pm. I will be online all day so when ever you get a chance to answer me back I will get an email saying you responded. I will try to help by answering an ? you might have. Talk to me....Jill
