I am constantly on BL, but don't post often. I'm looking for comments, suggestions, etc. on the path I am wanting to go on at this point.
I am currently in PM and get 240 oxy IR/month, Lyrica & MS Contin. I have post-herpetic neuralgia which I will probably have for life. I usually run out in 2 weeks; a bit longer if I'm lucky. I do this every month and I'm sick of it. I want out.
About 3 or so yrs ago, I did rehab when I first got addicted to hydrocodone. That was before I was on PM & was pretty much doctor shopping & got "caught." After I finished that, I was maybe a few months before I started up again & during those few months I was a complete mess emotionally.
I know I have to be on something. I know I can't go this w/o either Methadone or Suboxone, but I don't think my PM doc can give me Sub. I don't even know if he's going to agree w/ the Methadone idea, but I want to continue to take my Lyrica, so that's why I'm waiting to see if my PM doc will put me on Methadone instead of just going to a Meth clinic.
Does this sound like the best thing for me to do?
