Hello my name is Karen. I need some advise I have been on suboxone since feb last year have tapered down to 8 mg a day was on 16. I have been experiencing severe horseness in my voice hair loss and so on so I went to an ent on Monday. He took a camera and looked into my throat and saw some spots that he wants to biopsy because of the amount of time I have smoked along with sypmptoms.
I also have large turbenates that needs a reduction. I have struggled with the not breathing for quite some time until it has become harder to sleep at night. So I called the dr who prescribes my subs and he said that I can only take motrin after surgery but surgeon said no motrin or blood thinning meds for at least 2 weeks after surgery.
So I now have to make a decision weather to let the spots go in my throat which could be something that needs further treatment hopefully not. I want to know how difficult it is to with drawl from the sub and also I had read on a thread about katrum haven't even heard about that before does it have to be prescribed or can you get it at health food stores.
I posted this under the wrong place earlier I think sorry about that just not having a good day because of the dr saying what he did. He is always preaching to me that I have been putting off other issues I have dealt with concerning my health but this is something that I was shocked to hear. I have done research on the surgery itself and is pretty painfull afterwards. I just hope to hear some feed back to help me make this decision thank you for your time.
