doctors play god , after 11 years

hi all . where to start, last month i got my home searched for weed what i was cultivating .not even growing , just looking after two mother plants. while the place got searched the police found some methadone 4000ml IN MY NAME ( i got 70ml a day and my partner 50ml a day , total 840ml a week ) what had built up over the last 11years and was in my loft out of the way of everybody.. anyway the police got intouch with my doctor and he stopped both mine and my partners scripts without even telling us. we was told there was letters in the post , which never came. he is going to phone you, which has still never happened..and he's got your notes with him but nothing.. this is the same doctor what has dealt with us both for 11 years for 2 minuite at a time once every 3 months. together that is....
anyway the methadone was all in my name from what had built up over the years as i have tried a good few times to come down on my own when i have felt strong enough . or if i did have some gear i would try not to have them both,
NONE OF THE METHADONE was in my partners name  but they also dismissed her of the program with no explanation apart from you live with him........
You have to pick your methadone up  everyday day ,cause if you miss you get kicked of the progam . so over the years it can easily build up.... cause  we had been managing it by ourselves . we never abused methadone by having to much or selling it .. if any we tried to get through on as little as possible.......
they had also stopped our sleeping tablets what we have been on for a number of years . me 10mg nitrazipan the wife zopiclone..
now 4 weeks later we have managed to see a doctor which has put us on daily pick up .to be drank in the chemist..( how trampy and down graiding is that ) but now he has stopped my nitrazipan without even seeing me or telling me... i got to find out from a recieptionist who seemed to know everything.. whats happened to patient doctor confiedencallity
it feels that my world has been ripped apart..we have had to resort back to gear after doing so well for so long . how can these people do this to a family... without even talking to us never mind seeing us.... the doctors at this so called drug clinic are playing god with our lifes.... now i feel i've gone back 11 years... any advice . please .. don't know were to turn...........

You throw up right after drinking methadone every day? That's a bad sign and among other thing means you body doesn't want it in there. "Methadone, there's no future in it" all the best

Hi Justin,just a thought Methadone has a shelf -life of according to my pharmacist of no more than 3-Months,and that is at a refrigerated level.What you had,was stale orange-juice.I can see them thinking that you are selling the Methadone,as no-one has it stockpiled like that. All the best john

I'm so sorry this happened to you.  Doctor-patient confidentiality is a joke actually as everyone in the office can snap a finger and get your file.  Would the chemist have information about where else you might turn?  Maybe like mimi said, a hospital or other setting?

Good luck to you both, this was very wrong to do to you.

I suspose you are in the UK? That's pretty much the way it works in most English speaking countires if you are and addict and need the drugs, they call the show right or wrong. It not right but it's the way it is you have to play by their rules. they say jump and you say how high. all the best

Justin.

I'm so sorry all of this is happening. Can you go somewhere else, even a hospital?

Did they tell you anything at all as to why they are doing this?
