Opioids Will GHB take away Morphine Withdrawal?

[Painful One]

I was diagnosed with Narcolepsy and I have been on MS Contin for ten years now.
The Specialist Doctor wants me to cut out my night dose of MS Contin so that he can give me GHB at night.
He says that the GHB will transform my life. From fully disabled to a fully functioning human being again.

I don’t see how it will be possible for me to cut out my night dose of MS Contin.
I get withdrawal at the exact time for my next dosage. Even a little before it is time for my next dosage honestly.

But, I have read that GHB will take opiate withdrawal away entirely.

What do you guys think? Any experience would be very helpful to me.

Thank you!

Hii again. Lol- yup! The fine doctor is correct. G got me off high dose oxycontin with shocking ease. Barely even had to ween. Just know this is NOT a free trade. No free biological lunches. One then has a rather persistent G habit, which I would easily argue is a hungrier, albeit much more satisfying beast. Done in retrospect I would likely attempt alternating to avoid total dependence on either - with my aptitude for refraining however, I would likely end up dabbling in both.

I find GHB about as addicting as opiates, and very, very moreish. In fact I might venture to say I like it more than opiates. However, I have heard it can be amazing for narcolepsy, more effective than any other medication. I think this is because it puts you into a deep sleep and then you wake up with a rebound of dopamine which helps keep you focused and awake. It has been used safely and effectively by many people for narcolepsy for a long time. If you take your dose and go right to sleep you may never become addicted to the subjective effects (which are highly euphoric and recreational).

I haven't noticed GHB or 1,4-butanediol to significantly reduce opioid withdrawal apart from the anxiolytic effects. Meaning the skin still crawls, gastrointestinal issues remain and body pain isn't reduced (and is sometimes even heightened). GHB and its various prodrugs kind of make my skin crawl on their own which isn't great in opioid. Much of my experiences have been with 1,4-butanediol which is far dirtier feeling than GHB proper.

All said and done however, I'd rather be addicted to opioids than GHB, as GHB withdrawal is quite a bit worse.

Honestly, I know I could safely take the GHB and the morphine together and have no problems.
I have such a high tolerance to opiates and downers.

With having this Narcolepsy thing, I could be shot with a dart of elephant tranquilizer and still remain conscious.
I am just going to use them both. I am not on that high of a dosage of MS Contin.
It is extended release morphine too, so I only actually have 2-3 mg of morphine in my system all the time.

I require the morphine for not only pain but I cannot think straight without it.
I have been using it for ten years now and I am not going to be able to come off it. No way.

The medical community caught my condition way too late!

What sort of pain do you have?

I have chronic pain in my left leg and neck, lower back.
plus severe migraine headaches and I mean so severe that they knock out my speech and my vision.
They leave me violently throwing up to the point I think I have broken some ribs before.
It sucks so bad.

This is all from narcolepsy. Apparently, when I sleep, I only sleep on my left side and I get paralyzed like that so I don’t turn over to relieve the pressure like normal people. Therefore, I am putting all my weight on my one leg and side all night and I wake up feeling like I have been beat with a hammer all over my body.

But the pain is intense in my left leg.

Now that I know what is happening to cause this pain, I can work to overcome and change things.

Narcolepsy comes with a whole lot more than just randomly falling asleep all the time.
WAY more.
