Lope and suboxone for withdrawal

I take 260mg. Morphine a day, plugged. I'm 2 days short on my refill, so I have to get thru it.  I plugged 100mg of lope at noon, and took a 4mg. Silicone at 3. Is this enough to save me ? I know bupe only goes to brain receptors, (I think), while the loperamide goes to other opiate receptors in the body. So is it bad to take them both for withdrawal ?

I'm just trying to get thru today and tomorrow before I get my refills. Sorry for the "silicone"...when I MEANT Suboxone.....It's 4:30, and I feel Ok. I just hope it lasts thru the night, and then I guess I'll do the same, unless something untoward happens. I'm a chronic pain patient with 7 back surgeries and multiple other surgeries under my belt. I usually don't run short, but with the holiday weekend, I ran 2 days short.

You shouldn't need the loperamide with the bupe. As far as your question, no drug will save us from drugs. Bupe is great for a break from the rush and euphoria to give time to build aftercare and deal with some of the reasons we use, but it is an opioid. What is your plan with the bupe, are you building a support system and coping skills? That is what will save you. Had I only used bupe and nothing else, I would be dead by now. So, what's your plan or are you here to get advice about a plan?
