Subutex W/D's...help!

Oops I didn't read the pregnant part either I'd definitely be calling someone 16 if they told a pregnant woman to take benzos :O
 
Please do not try to endure severe WD symptoms while pregnant. Go to the emergency room, they can help you, protect your unborn child, and will likely address the legal issue while doing so. Your situation is outrageous, and I am very sorry this has happened to you. I hope for the best for you.
 
I just wanted to let everyone on here know that I DID go to the hospital. I could NOT take it anymore, & was extremely worried about my child's health. & guess what my luck was? MY DOCTOR THAT PRESCRIBES MY SUB. WAS THE DOCTOR ON CALL!! It was truly a blessing. He told me I should've came much sooner! So he wrote me another prescription along with a lecture as to not carry any more of my meds with me other than what I'll need for the time I'm away. I truly appreciate all of you guys' help & all the prayers that were said for me. You guys are awesome, it's so nice to know that there are people out there that don't judge you & can understand the struggles you go through each day. Thank y'all so much!
 
Also, there definitely measures taken to prevent this sorry piece of shit from stealing from me, or anyone else in the future. It takes an extremely cold person to steal from someone, especially medication from a person that is trying to better themselves for not just their self, but their children...a PREGNANT person at that. The main thing that got me, was the fact that this person was aa close family member that watched me struggle before, and was "proud" of me for wanting better for myself & my children. This person knew what I would have to go through without my medication, along with the fact that I'm pregnant. But they still chose to be sorry enough to steal from me! There are a lot of sorry people in this world. I thank God every day that I didn't choose to be one of them.
 
I'm so glad you are all right I was really concerned. I'm glad you are well and your child. We all deserve a fighting chance coming into this world and that is what sent me over the edge. I'd still like to kick that fuckers ass! I think after having kids you are more sensitive as to how others treat kids!
 
That is so true! I chose to live a better life for my kids more than myself, including my unborn. It's a shame what others are willing to watch you go through just to satisfy themselves! I actually realized how strong of a person I truly am this weekend. Before I chose sobriety, I could've never gone almost 4 days without a "fix". It's a life long battle, but it's one I'm choosing to beat. I'm very glad I decided to go the emergency room & I'm thankful for all of you guys' support! I probably would've tried to tough it out had y'all not convinced me that was what I needed to do, & I'm very thankful for that & glad I decided to post in this forum.
 
To the OP, very glad you got help, glad you and baby are okay. Not to hijack the thread but i do have a question if you don't mind answering it. When you went on methadone was it for maintenance therapy or for pain? If for the latter how did it do for pain. I am a pain patient and have the option of switching to oxy or methadone and am leaning more towards the done as I have trouble controlling my doses. How did it feel for you? Again sorry, not trying to hijack the thread was just curious as you mentioned being on it. Thanks and again glad you and baby are okay. What goes around comes around and whoever stole your meds has it coming.
 
So glad the ending to your thread was positive!

And what an absolutely horrible thing for a family member to do to another. But karma always comes.

I'm just so glad your baby is ok, withdrawal can so easily cause miscarriage. I know you're relieved, not only to be feeling better but also knowing your baby is ok :)

I'm currently on a methadone clinic and can only imagine if someone took my takehomes...and like you, I got back into a program cause of my son. I had him when clean and relapsed and was going so downhill and just wanted to be ok again to be there for him. And it's been around 18 months since I did any drug. So I'm happy for you also that you're doing the right thing for your family

Hey! Of course I don't mind answering. I actually went to methadone for maintenance, but several people that I went to the MMT clinic with went there for pain control. To be honest, methadone may be a much better option for you if you've had trouble controlling your doses. The half life of methadone is much longer than that of any other opioid, so you would only have to take your dose once a day. I noticed a huge difference when I went from short-acting opiates to methadone, & was much happier. Pain tolerance was also controlled a lot better with methadone than with other opiates as well. If I were you, I'd give a maintenance dose of methadone a try. Feel free to ask any more questions you have! I'd be glad to answer them! :)

Thank you so much! I also did the same, I was clean throughout my pregnancy with my 20 month old, but relapsed a couple weeks after when the doctor f***ed up & gave me oxycodone for pain from a natural delivery that happened while in the parking lot of the hospital. Lol, but as a recovering addict...addiction is a lifelong battle, & one slip up can put you right back where it all started. I finally decided to put my foot down & stop all together when I literally felt my life crumbling beneath my feet. I finally started taking Suboxone in April (which I also got from the methadone clinic, had to go Mon-Sat & got take home on Sunday) before becoming pregnant in August. When I found out I was pregnant, I switched to a different doctor to get Subutex due to the fact that Subutex is a lot healthier for the fetus than Suboxone.
 
I was on a beup program for a while myself and unfortunately ur in for it. Like someone else said about the half life being so long is the reason why u were still feeling ok on day 3. But if u don't buy some on the street soon your baby is at a serious risk so u either need to find some sub or methadone or opiate or go to the ER. That's that. Your baby is also feeling the effects of your sub and the lack of it will cause it to widthdrawl with you and could induce early labor. Try n find someone to sell u some suboxone. Good luck
