Hi Everyone,
I was forced to switch to suboxone 8 months ago for severe pain. This was the U.S. governments solution to all the Veteran ODs they caused by passing out opiates like candy for years. Anyway I have been on 24mg a day of subox for the 8 months. Prior to that I was on opiates for 7 years for a couple of failed back surgeries, leg pain, etc. I've never had any problems with addiction, etc. This is purely for pain. I finally got insurance again so I can afford full opiates again. I filled my prescription today and I get 3 30mg oxycondone IR and 3 30mg oxycontin a day for the month. I get this prescription re-filled every month.
I took my full dose of 24mg of subox this morning. I know everyone is different, tolerance, weight, etc. I'm looking for recommendations on cutting over. I have a ton of subox left. My main objective is to achieve maximum pain relief. After years of being on opiates the euphoria typically isn't much for me but you could use the getting high scale if you don't have chronic pain and have real world experience doing this. I keep reading going 3-5 days without subox is usually enough and then some people say the subox lingers for months. I don't need to worry about wasting money because again I this script refilled monthly. I'm more concerned with the least amount of pain and getting off this subox crap. I think this drug is probably great if you have a serious heroin addiction but not for my severity of neurological pain. Any comments or suggestions appreciated.
