HELP IS ON THE WAY!!!!

[MED HELP INTERNATIONAL]

Within the next day or so, we will have a new addiction medicine specialist available to answer questions in this forum.  We know that you will appreciate his generosity, as he's volunteering his own time & expertise to help people in need.

Please help us by making sure that each new question is indeed a question and not just a "good morning" wish, or other such communication.  Because of funding & time limitations, the doctor will only be able to accept 2 new questions each day.

We'll give you more of the details as we get them....

Best wishes,
Cindy & Phil

Thank you for your info. I am seriously considering going to the ER and putting myself in the Detox program there. I think it's 7 days or until my insurance quits footing the bill.
     As far as the headaches, about 18mos ago i was in an accident, that was when i was put on the hydro i now have 2 herniated disks, then about three weeks ago i was rear-ended pretty hard, i have tried to taper twice since then, and the headaches were awful, so bad i was vomiting, so thanks for that suggestion maybe the meds are blocking something serious I should talk to my Pain Mang Dr. About six mos ago i tried to stop and had a headache but nothing compared to this. The hydro the Dr put me on were strong, as far as the narcotic part, 10 mg's and i was taking 10 - 12 a day, i am now down to 7, and i am really trying HARD. it is so upsetting, I have never done a drug in my life, hell i dont even drink. My life has been a mess, I am trying to hold down 2 jobs, and i feel like i am losing this game of life. thanks for listening

Mr. Bill, o, noooooo! Yeah, you know me, try'n to sow more seeds of destruction ...

I spent most of today in a power blackout (you know, when you take a whole lot of really good drugs and can't remember anything LOL). The power was out almost all day here. Didn't help my job search much, but I got a lot of reading done. I did finally get an interview for what I hoped would be a good job, but it's looking like a short-term (1 month) contract job. That would put me on the street in the middle of the holidays, only without Unemployment Insurance. For tech writers, the holiday season is a real dead zone. I'm afraid it might turn into more than just the holidays ... I'm going to offer personalized PC set-up and tutoring in some of our senior communities around here. Despite classroom training being offered in these communities, seniors frequently can't apply their training to their home systems. It seems like there's a need for it, and I'm sick of beating my head against the wall looking for technical writing jobs that simply aren't there anymore.

How was your day?

I appreciate the fact that there will be an expert to answer our questions.  My only concern, after having read many back posts is that this specialist will not answer questions.  Most of the back posts that I read were answered by the medical doctor with "see a doctor".  Ummm, yeah thanks, but could you answer my question please.  We don't need someone to state the obvious.

I don't know how to scream this to the world loud enough.  WE ARE ADDICTED, NOT STUPID.


Peace
