Hello everyone. I suppose I might be considered a bit of a “light-weight” to some, but I would like to get opinions from everyone who has experience in weening off opioids. A little background. I was a professional for 33 years. I lifted weights, trained mma and was in more real life and death hand to hand combat, firefights than most people. I also had a few fights I. The octogon but nothing to write home about. During this period of time in my life I sustained multiple gunshot wounds, stab wounds, broken bones, etc. my career came to an end in 2014 and I have been laid up in bed 80% of that time ever since. I have had 7 surgeries including 2 reconstruction surgeries on my feet and a double fusion with instrumentation and a double lamenectomy. I still have 4 herniated discs in my neck and 2 in my T-spine but I’m trying to avoid any more surgeries. My body has changed dramatically. At 6’4” a went from 288 pounds with a 10.5% body fat to now weighing 330 pounds of nothing but fat. I’m a disgusting fat pig and the atrophy in my body is heartbreaking, especially in my calves where they are pencil thin. Anyway, it’s now time to start rehab, PT, and weening off. I have been on 60 mg of Percocet for the last year. Prior to that I was on a ridiculous amount of opioids. The doctor switched me to Suboxone which, had I known better, I would never have agreed to use. But that’s another story. Anyway, my pain management doctor lowered my dose today. Instead of 6 10mg pills he wants me to take 5 10mg pills. It sounds reasonable. I have also been taking gabapentin 900mg x4/day. Also Duloxetine 20mg and clonidine.1mg at bedtime. I’m expecting to get all the symptoms of mild withdrawal, including anxiety, insomnia, rls, and increase in body pain. My pain management doctor suggested that I use canabis. I don’t smoke and have other problems with my lungs and esophagus so I’m not going to start. I tried an edible that my son bought me and I damn near lost my mind. I tried others with THC and also lost control. The anxiety is horrible. My doctor told me to use a 20:1 tincture. I have an 18:1 tincture that I tried today. It didn’t seem to give me any relief and possibly even increased my anxiety. Is it possible that there’s some kind of negative interaction between cannabis and Gabapentin? Any suggestions or ideas or shared experiences I would greatly appreciate. Thanks for your time!
