Most Doctors nowadays are brainwashed assholes.  They haven' been there and they haven't done that.  Some of them have and are still there, but the majority, really only care about money, and when they're gonna get paid that fat dollar.

I agree with x junky
there is no easie way to kick opi-eats and I repeat opi-eats your bones , It  gets deep inside and starts to nibbble

well if you are very wealthy  I soppose you can go to a Betty Ford type clinic.?

I also disagrree with the doc. It took me 8 months to kick Methadone and I was forsed off in a hospital ( rapid ultra detox. ) By doctors. I screamed and spazed and fell on my face and brook my tooth becuze i was so weak. They didn't seem to care.It is much easier to kick percs with valume?
Methadone is very hard to leave.

there is no painless way to kick an opiate habit.

If methadone is the way you choose to go I can tell you what normal protocol is.  No more than 40mg in the first 24 hours. If you are taking 4 percs a day I don't think you'll need that much. After 24 hours take 10mg at signs of physical w/d (ie. fever, nausea, vomiting, chills etc...) (you know what they are) but no more than 30 mg in 24 hours. Most meth detox programs only allow meth for 48 hours, but we both know you'll still have symptoms after that. taper taper taper. Are you sure you will be able to taper the methadone? It may be just as easy to taper the percs. Just don't have any leftovers laying around ( of either one) because you'll still want them.  Good luck!!!!!!!  Ask me if you need more help.
