I've been on between 8 and 4 mg. of buprenorphine for 10 years and my doctor suddenly retired and I've run out. He also prescribed valium and Xanax. And once lorazepam. I last took 8mg. of bupe on Xmas Eve and two days later felt withdrawal coming on.
Taking benzos especially lorazepam make me feel better. Is it possible to simply keep taking a benzos and let the bupe out of my system?
Money, lack of it, and the holidays have made it difficult to get a doc. Or someone who would know what I am facing. Sorry if this is the wrong place. It's been many hours since my last pill and I need to know if I'm putting my life at risk.
Please advise.
