Hello ~
Have been stopping by often and today I found the courage to register. Am an avid reader, amateur photographer and animal lover. My dog is a "rescue" and has helped me through some rough times. Really looking forward to being part of this community and hearing about your experiences.
I have been taking Methadone - 30mg/day since 2010 for chronic pain following a horseback riding fall. My neck and spine were fractured and after several surgeries I am grateful to be walking again! The Methadone is not working very well anymore. I am here to learn from you!

Blessings!

Welcome to bluelight !

Check out the speciality forums, you'll love them

That sucks to hear that, but at least you're walking ! Maybe discuss with your doctor that the methadone is no longer working as well.

Welcome to the forums Bokeh Girl! I love dogs too What's the name of your dog?

Hi! His name is Sundance!
Thank you for the great welcome. So excited to learn more about Methadone. It's become a double-edged sword; helpful for pain but at a cost...feeling numb emotionally and no motivation
Heading over to 'Pain management'

Blessed Be,
