Hey there,
My wife has been detoxing/tapering off of Methadone (from a clinic) since August 2016. She started at 150MG which she was on for almost 8 years.
She is now entering her 8th month of taper. In January she reached 85 MG and today she is down to 42 MG. She has done an unbelievable job.
I am so proud of her and so happy this is happening. Her end goal is to reach 30MG and transfer to suboxone.
The issue is, since January and 85MG up until now 42MG she is basically living with non-stop migraine. We even had an MRI & CT done just to be
sure, both came back ok. What can I do to help her with these headaches? The last thing I want is for her to reach for something drastic
as she is closing in on her goal?
Is there a combo of anything she can take to alleviate the withdrawal? Is there something natural she can take? Is there a prescription she should have?
Be aware she is very sensitive to interactions with Methadone so a lot of what's out there to my knowledge would create a wobbly wife.
Thanks!
