Yea, I know that going to another opiod to get off another opiod is actually a really stupid solution.Ive even done the loperamide and got stuck on that, pretty much just been chasing my tail for nothing going in the opiate circles now. Man I mean its only like its 5 DAYS, and Ive been through it before so why do I fear it so bad??Ill be the first to admit that I am a VERY difficult case.The crazy issue with the pregablin is my doc wont give me that because shes sure that I had a mental breakdown from it. She wont give me benzos either because of my past history with addiction. I can get some benzos but probably only xanax(possibly valium not sure though) but after just one use of a xanax, I have rebound anxiety for five days afterwards. I do have about 50 neurontins laying around, lots of clonidine and vistiril if I need it.Even with the neurontin I can barely take enough of that for what I will need because I had to get off of that due to it inflaming my skin and hair follicles .. but I will still take it if I have to.
Ive also looked into other things that have been found to help withdrawals such as doxepin and zofran but my regular doc would only write me for 10 of them until I saw a gastro doc. They are also the low milligram and not enough for five days. Your right though, even though she suspects that the breakdown was from Lyrica (which was many years ago however), I would be more than willing to risk that again for just the 5 days of the worst withdrawal.Ive even thought of trying to order some pregablin online cause crap all I need is a few of them.I KNOW how good that stuff works and ur right, it would make it CAKE for me to come off Kratom. Might sound crazy, but considering that it would only be for five days I think it might be worth the risk.
Im going back to the doc on the 16th, if I can hang on till then and keep tapering.Ive been thinking of some other things that might help( Im sorry if you cant tell Im a woos when it come to withdrawal). I just dont know what to ask her for that I havnt already tried and dont wanna mix too much crap in the mix if you know what I mean.If I could just find something that I could tolerate well enough to take enough for my purposes Id be fine. Whatever I take I also make sure to run through the interactions checker just to be safe.Anyways, yea like I said my system is HELL to deal with and once I get clear of this I have learned my lesson good this time!!! Im gonna try to go to Walmart to day and take my BP and Ill report back....
