Hey there. I am currently taking suboxone at a done clinic for an addiction/dependance problem stemming from severe everyday chronic pain. I had been using opiates for years, mainly Oxycontin, percs, vicodin, methadone, u name it. needless to say, I used to have to take promethazine after i started taking something every day pretty much all day for 2 years, just so i could get an effect. In the last month ive started getting suboxone for bad withdrawl and and the real bad cravings i get.. plus i cant afford getting pills off the street anymore.. Anyways.
Gradually they bumped me up to 24mg of suboxone, and it worked well for the first two weeks. But after that, the effects became more and more limited. For the past 2 or so weeks i havent sleep well at all, been in cold sweats all day, very irritable, trembling uncontrolably and having intense cravings to get more oxys and just rail those b*tches upp.. Ohh, have i mentioned the horrible dry-gags and vomiting all day? .-.
I've talked to my counciller and will see me Doc. about this soon. But till then, does anybody have any idea why this might be?
I even started taking prometh. with the dose, as well as holding the sub under my mouth like 45 minutes until its flavorless.. but still I feel like absolute shit, like I did before I came in to the clinic. And no matter how I take it, even when in full w/d it is like taking a placebo pill.
I used to get methadone on the street for my w/d's and boy did that help. Although I needed 40-60mg. Which, frum what peole have told me is much stronger than suboxone and if you need a dose that high of 'done, suboxone wont be effective. I will discuss this with my doc;
but does anybody have any ideas?! I'd appreciate it so much, im SOO confused.
