So I bit the bullet and finally scheduled and saw a doc for my heroin addiction. I've heard of many ppl going in and getting a sub script plus some support meds on the first visit. However, today I went in, did the standard first time talk, gave blood and urine. They did not write me anything today which was frustrating. Thry said to come back in 2 days once thry analyze my samples... Understandable I guess, and then said thry would write me thr script then, and want to administer my first dose there at the office.
Does this sound normal? Should I stay the course? Or do you guys think I'm wasting my time and maybe this guy is just trying to make more money and/or jerk me around. He's a normal pcp and sees families but is certified to prescribe sub and was the manager of a methadone clinic for 10 years.
I guess what makes me second guess it all is that at first he seemed like he just didn't want to treat me... He tried suggesting an in patient detox, then methadone clinic... Blah blah it was like o had to insist that I wanted to go on subs.
Also- I'm hoping to get some meds to help with the crippling anxiety, hot cold flashes and pain I still experience while on subs for a while. Is there any good way to inquire about these without looking like I'm seeking drugs? I suppose I am but only to make sure I give this a full go, and stack myself up in a way that pushes toward success with the whole thing.
Anyway...thoughts? Thanks All!
