As some may remember if you read my post from last night, I got "caught" yesterday getting narcotics from two different doctors. I stupidly (stupid, stupid) filed insurance for the last year on all my prescriptions. I knew better. I still don't understand why it is the business of the insurance company, what happened to HIPPA? Anyway, my doc who gives me the methadone and percocet was pretty nice about it when I saw him in the office yesterday and still wrote my prescriptions (God, I was ashamed). The other doctor who gives me #60 Lorcet 10 mg a month who is also an old friend of mine sent me a letter in the mail today. It could have been worse, he just said the insurance company had sent him a letter, etc. etc. and he would no longer be able to prescribe the Lorcet for me any longer but would be glad to prescribe my Xanax which I take my once or twice a month only. So, things could have been worse, but I am so embarrassed and ashamed, plus am going to miss my Lorcet, for one thing it helps me make the month without running out of my other stuff.
This is my question, if I do decide to go ahead and do rehab, does anyone know anything about the rehab facilities in Texas? Any recommendations on which one to use or how to go about selecting one? I have been addicted for at least 20 years, the first 10 on hydrocodone only and basically the last 10 on methadone and percocet. Take 10 mg of methadone three times a day and approx. two percocet 10 mg a day, not to mention the hydrocodone I used to have.
Thanks so much.
Love, Cindy
