Should I stop my methadone treatment?
Here is the thing, I am an ex drug addict, I was a pretty bad user, started pills when I was 18 from a chronic pain condition called endometrosis but I have been sober or clean from heroin and pills for 2 years about....I got on methadone treatment about 2 years ago. I am living with my friend who is into natural medicine and is against methadone. I know that methadone causes some stuff like i heard it depletes the calcium in the bones over time, and it's REALLY hard to get off..I know I tried before. But I don't want to be on it for the rest of my life. I am 27 and I'm on 105mg a day. My roommate says I should get off because 1. it prevents me from going living anywhere that doesn't have a methadone clinic nearby.2. I have to go almost everyday to the clinic.. I'm on phase 2 which means I can have 3 take outs a week, and I will be getting my phase 3 soon. 3. He's worried about the calcium thing.4. Also he thinks I will die from a liver thing or slow breathing in my sleep. Those are the main things he is worried about,but the things is..I have been on it for about 2 years and I have not had a dirty UA since getting on the methadone. It's has been helping me..Also it really is hard to get off. I have heard of this treatment called. Ibogain? It supposedly helps people get off opiates, and it addresses the withdrawal that would come with stopping it. I know I don't want to be on it forever but....it's helping me right now....what do you think? Thank you.

I had an EKG done and my QT levels are off....but my methadone doctor said he sent the results to a cardiologist and he said the heart waves on the paper looked fine...He called my primary and said it was alright...but it still makes me a little worried.I have heard of this treatment called. Ibogain?

I have been reading up on it...but some of the sites I have been to are vague and say stuff that isn't necessarily true. That's why I wanted other opinions and facts from people who know what they are talking about. Thank you for replying to my question. I really don't feel ready to get off....but my friend has been pressuring me....just cuz he thinks it 's a bad thing to be on it for a long time....but then what does he know...I will let him know what I found out about it. I really am doing better now then I was not on the treatment. Thank you for your input. Hope you have a great day night.

How long should I wait after my last dose of methadone to start suboxone?
I have went down from 85mg of methadone to 17mg of methadone at a rate of 4mg per day. It has been 24 hours since my last dose of 17mg and Im already feeling the w d setting in. I know they say to wait 3 days once you are down to 30mg of methadone but if I have tapered down to 17mg would I still have to wait a full 3 days? Please only answer if you have experience with suboxone. Because I have experienced precipitated W D in th past and never want to feel that again. Thank You.

How do I help my husband whos coming off methadone with the withdraws? ?
Ello. I was wondering what I could do to help my husband whos quitting methadone. What happen was back in August our son was born two months early. Due to the high stress that came with that he relaps and started to do heorin again. Around Christmas he came and told every body that he had messed up and needed help. His family member helped him by taking him to a clinic where they offered methadone. Hes been there for maybe a month now. This morning something had happen and the lady refused to give him his daily dose. So he left and decieded to just go cold turkey. Now Ive never done drugs or known anybody who has. I just know that coming off this is very long and painful. So my question is what should I expect in the next while and what can I do to help and be supportive? And is there any home remedies or something I can get at store to at least try to help with the withdraws pain.Any advice would be so helpful. Many thanks in advance
