Yep, my pain is constant when I get intestinal pain, it used to come and go and rarely but sometimes it will come and go. However for the most part once I start feeling intestinal pain, I try to make the drive 3 and a half hours away to my specialist who is worth the trip so I can get GOOD care, rather than ever go back to the corrupt discriminating unfriendly hospital just 20 mins from me.
However if I ever have a sudden emergency like I had once so far and couldn't wait in the car with someone driving me the whole time, I will go only to the new hospital which is just down the street from my methadone clinic, that hospital is about as nice as the one in Peoria Illinois. As far as the methadone goes, it does help a little with the pain which is disappointing since I'm currently on a whopping 230mg which only helps for 3 hours, but when I once broke their rules and took one take home as usual in morning and then another around 7 pm and that worked much better.
But when I'm in severe pain the methadone is just like suboxone was, it barely touched the pain. Also since I have been reducing my dose(less is more)I am now at 230mg down from 260. I notice now that I have a little more energy and I tiny bit more ambition.
