I've had similar experiences. I think you kicked you body into a cytokine storm OP. It's basically a severe overreaction of the immune system. While your symptoms resemble withdrawal they also resemble a nasty virus and with the power of suggestion well........10 years of morphine pain management use. Once or twice a year I would let myself get bound up and not notice it ( Constipation ). The end result was always withdrawal symptoms. Used to make me sick for 3-4 days. Real sick. Talked about it many times with my doc and she had no answers. I used to tell her it was like my medications were not absorbing. I think she thought I was a little off. Happened too many times for it to be in my head. Solution was to better manage my bowels... But life always got in the way.

Edit - Wanted to add... It always felt like one end was blocked and the top end was desperately trying to clear it. Like a giant cauldron of liquid in my gut working its way through my system trying to clear the blockage. Wife and I had a name for it even... The Purge.
Edit 2 - Wanted to add now that im thinking back to those first few times. I thought at first I was getting bogus pills from the pharmacy lol. Thought I took the wrong dosage. Etc... All the crazy thoughts.
I think its just the bodies response to a bad situation. Absorption slows and the priority becomes getting rid of everything. Anyways... 10 years of 300mg of morphine daily. My 10 cents.
They should have an ombudsman you can file a grievance with (although IME they tend to be more interested in covering the clinic's ass and toeing the line, so ymmv).
I'm still curious as to who owns and operates the clinic, or if they are just a stand alone operation. If you aren't interesting in getting to specific that is absolutely cool too.
I just went through six hours of what felt like precipitation of withdrawals. Have taken 100 mg MD daily for five yrs and have taken subs before and know what it's like. I was really constipated unlike any other time before and took mag citrate for two days like previous times bc it always works. On day three I took an enigma and 30 min later no bowel movement but severe sweating and that "severe muscle anxiety " and burning feeling in my chest and arms and legs followed by sneezing vomiting watery eyes,etc. lasted for six hrs or so before I fell asleep after large dose of Benadryl. Woke up feeling better and immediately had a bowel movement. No one believed me that I was in withdrawal but after doing some research this is one of many stories I've come across linking methadone induced constipation to feelings of precipitated withdrawal.. hope this helpsBuprenorphine getting mixed with the methadone is very unlike, but I think naltrexone getting mixed with it would be even more unlikely (unless the nurse or someone was out to get them).
I don't feel like the mixup is likely. Its such a weird mistake. You say you saw pink in it? I think you got really sick man and mistook it for withdrawls. I mean everytime I yawn or catch a chill I think im in withdrawls.
