So swim has been a heroin addict for the last five years or so, on and off but mostly on, with the longest clean time being maybe 3-4 months in the last five years. Lately swim hasnt been using daily, was clean for about three weeks and recently started using again 4-5 days a week the last few weeks. Swim no longer iv's, only snorts. So thursday-Saturday swim did between 4-6 bags each day, and because of lack of funds was forced to have nothing Sunday and all day today. Started feeling a little sick last night (Sunday night) and starting around 7 this morning before work started getting pretty sick (chills, anxiety, aches, diarrhea, anxiety, etc). To help curb the withdrawals enough to withstand work, swim took 4 2mg immodiums at 8am (8mgs) and around 12 took three more (6mg, for a daily total of 14mg). So after getting off work a friend of swims had a few 10mg methadone pills, and he gave swim two since he was still feeling pretty sick. swim took 1 10mg dose at 7pm, and a half more (5mg) around 9pm. This was swims first time ever taking methadone, so figured this dose was enough to make him unsick but not enough to over do it. It is now 1am, and swim feels fine. No longer sick, but not anything noticeably strong, no nodding, pupils arent even close to how small they from using heroin or any other opiates. Besides just feeling a tad tired (which is probably from the ten hour plus work days) swim feels fine.
Swims question is, as a very anxious person, and after reading about dosing with methadone, swims starting to worry if the dose was still too much somehow, or if the immodium (last taken at noon) will potentiate the methadone enough to cause an overdose, although swim knows loperamide does not cross the bbb. Any one have any experience with a situation like this? Anyone can shed any light? Swim is thinking hell be fine, as said earlier, he feels fine and hardly felt any strong or even moderate effects from the meth besides feeling noticeably unsick. Thoughts?
