I've been on methadone for a year and a half
... Recently I've gone down to 20mg and now to 5, but I've refused my methadone for the last 3 or 4 days.... I can't get a full rush or a full high from hydromorphone no matter what the dose...Why is this??? I was going down 30mg a week(yes I'm stupid) on my methadone and finally got into a range where you're "supposed" to be able to feel pills again... Why can't I get a full rush or a high??? Do I need to wait longer for the methadone to gett out of my system... I've been below 20mg for a week now.

Not only that but since methadone made me gain fat for the first time in my life...I gained 60 pounds and now I can barely see any veins on my arms... The old vein I used to use going through the crook in the elbow is no longer there..even though I haven't used it in a year, I did coke a year ago and I could find it no problem...I have to get my buddy to hit me up and for some reason after every hit I keep bruising so now its even harder to find a vein..And no they weren't misses. they all went into the vein fine... But I can't rely on my friend forever he has a life as do I.... Does anybody have tips on finding or bringing veins to the surface because I'll only hit veins I can feel...maybe that's a bad philiosophy? Anyone know of any fat veins or where they're located on the arm I've looked at many charts and they don't help and I don't have time to UTFSE....it takes forever to find the specific thing you want it's too general.

Any help would be appreciated, I think I might be sticking the rig in too deep...but that wasn't a problem before I was on methadone. And my hands shake so It's hard to hit; but not impossible to hit smaller veins...

Any help..well...it helps.
