Did you go through any withdrawel at all and if so how bad was it? Also, did your pm doc replace the methadone with any other meds,as I myself would like my pm doc to try and find some other type of painmanagement other than narcotics if possible. The problem is I cannot take steroids or other nsaids because of all the pills I have taken in the past have messed up my stomach.I believe I can learn alot of information from you so thank you for you offer and any help.
Hi,
I am 38 days clean from methadone 82mg. I went to a pain management DR. and he weaned me down over a 3 wk period with the methadone pills. Tapering gradually. I feel really good, and I am going through chemo treatment at the same time. It was a little tough, but not as bad as I thought. I had a much harder time with ct from alot of pills back in Sept. but now I am done and it is so worth it.
If I can help you in any way please let me know.
hey i dont know much bout methadone, but i know cold turkey is tough id say any opiate the w/ds depend on how much you use but i feel that within a week youll get pretty well back to normal, itll be hard but you can do it if you set your mind to it
GOOD LUCK STAY STRONG
I took mathadone 10mg pills for like 2 months straight but only about 4-5 of them per day at most. I went c/t for about 4 days and it wasnt as bad as i thought, but then I heard about it taking longer to get out of my system. Over then next 2 days it got pretty bad for me, and then I just relapsed and got my drug of choice which is what you were on... OXYCODONE... Sorry cant be more help, but others will post with mroe accurate info with more experience. The 15mg oxycodone were little green ones right?
