So, over the last 3 days, I've used Suboxone to bridge my scripts because my Fentanyl Patches were falling off (I'm on 50mcg and am trying like hell to get my Dr. to give me anything else, been on for 3-4 months now, DO NOT LIKE AT ALL). They never last the full 72 hours, and if you've been on them long enough, you'll start feeling shitty anxiety around 24-48 hrs for some people. I would not recommend at all, because now they've JACKED UP my tolerance completely.
Anyways, here is my question, I bought 6 (8/2) strips, I used most yesterday and the day before when it was really bad. Today, I've only taken half of 1. So 4mg. So, out of the 6, I have 1 and 1/2 still left. I was nodding pretty good last night. I took it around Noon-2pm when I felt some of the withdrawls and anxiety come back (my system is eating through this stuff, I think I have that heretical thing where medicine doesn't work that well for me? I dont' know what it's called, someone please help here, it's when medicine like when they try to put you under, or pain meds, or anything really, doesn't work but about 50% for me, like my metabolism goes through it so fast, and I have to re-dose sooner than normal, my Dr. knows this, and still hasn't ordered the genetic test thing to confirm, so I can get the right dosages, don't even ask about my life right now, I'm in NM (Hell) and so frustrated) anyway, so, I can pick up my scrip for 120 10/325 Vics, Hydrocodone. I am given for "Breakthrough Pain". So, I'm wondering, and guessing, that I am not going to exactly "feel them" the same, as I normally would with this stuff still in my system. But, I probably will need something for the Sub and continued Fent withdrawls, right?
So, can substitute that with the vics to help me? I'm wondering how many is it gonna take, and how long will the Subs and stuff still be in me, to affect this medication. God, I really need this not to suck right now. I just got laid off, I have $4 to my name. My credit and debit and bank info was just hacked, and I literally had to cancel everything from a funding source I've been with for like 15 years, so, while all that is being "re-done", I need to figure out how to get a job, or money to pay A) a little under $100, to buy the 3 boxes (5 each) of Fent patches) tomorrow, which I can't do cause I don't have. B) come up with about 800 bucks for all my bills and food and stuff next month, and the other half of this month. I'm having terrible anxiety, and fear of being homeless for the first time in my life. I'm young, and have had to deal with piriformis syndrome and compressed discs, etc, erosion, for like the last decade. So, this has not been a fun life, and I don't know what to do. I have NO family. And no friends atm. Yay for my life. Anyways, I have my Tagamet or whatever it's called tabs, and real Grapefruit Juice, I'm hoping will help make them stronger, does anyone know if black pepper does the same for Hydro? Thanks to anyone who can reply and help or just offer support. Thank you to this community.
