Arthritis pain

[sharonver]

As I am trying to taper from methadone, I recently discovered that my lyme arthritis pain is coming back full form!  The meth has been masking it all of these years. My dilema now is should I continue the taper & detox and finish it and try to maintain on another med for the pain.

I wasn't talking about you .... it's hard for me to understand how a person can sit through an a  meeting and NOT feel the spirit. Another word for humble is "teachable" ... (believe me I work on this every day) Today I am down to 2 and 3/4 (or 175mil)
of ultram. My hands hurt and I have a headache, but with God's help, I will keep on going ... Goldie

Thomas, you can come to any party I throw. This isn't personal.

Hippy, there is a time to be nice, and there is a time to go with your instincts and say what you think. Sharing experience, strength and hope takes on a different form for everyone. When a practising addict says something that might discourage another from getting clean, I feel compelled to give the other side.

Golden, thanks for mentioning humility. It's essential. I know the odds aren't good for me staying clean, especially if I think I have done it myself and am running the show. I didn't and I am not. It is a state of grace, and I can lose it real quick. I try not to mention god or get too deep into recovery priciples on this board, but your points are well taken.
