U have got to be kidding.

Question

I was on oxys for 2 years,alot.I got sub from the same Dr. He said to eat 3 a day! So 15 days ago i quit CT and after 26 hrs i ate part of a Sub.  8 days i ate 1 in 1/4s thruout day.Then 3/4s/ now a 1/2 for 2 days and today 1/4. Yes i feel it.Terrible that is.This stuff scares me. So my plan was to eat this **** for 21 days and so be it,Then follow a plan of Klonpin,clonidine.When it got real rough,. Went to my regular Dr today to get a few. He disagreed, but he said that SUbs are just like eating methadone in tablet form and said get off right now.HE said he wanted me to take AD..WHAT!! Then he said im better detoxing off the oxy or sub by eating valuim and oxicodone HCL 5s. SO he gives me a handful of each and i told him i dont wnat any AD, ive never had them.Im not deppresed and if i was i would gladly try them out. Im just detoxing, My BP was really high too.He said no clonidine because some people that eat them have to end up on them as when they stop it spikes I said i just wanted enough to get thru the worst part of withdrawls and i have to work thru this except the wekends and im really busy.. He really is a good dr. I just dont think its a great idea to eat any oxicodones.and the idea of a  piece of valium sounds good as im stressed to the gills.Im going to try not to eat any more sub today and try a piece of valium tonite to sleep.ANy advice would be appreciated...

He is saying this will be better than using subs and to take it only when i really need to! I was taking about 160 MGs a day and he gave me a handful of 5s...He hates the Sub program and is a big fan of taper...

All sounds a but weird. If I understand this right, our regular doc is not into the idea of you taking sub, so he's telling you to detox with valium and more oxy? I can understand the valium, although in my experience it didn't touch the sleeping problem, but what's with the oxys? I guess I can see he might think it's easier to detox of oxys than sub, but since when did you detox by taking more? Or is it that he's saying taper down your oxy use and then quit?
