Hello,I am a man I live in Ohio and for 12 years I have had a bad opiate addiction brought on by perscription pain meds,it started with an accident at work where I got 4 fingers actually taken off,I was put on Vicodein and percocet,well the doctors finaaly moved me to a pain care clinic where they placed me on Oxycontin,I started out on four tens a day,that went too four twentys and so on until I got to 3 eights a day I was hooked because when I tried to quit I couldnt,then I ran into a buddy who said hey I know what you can get on that wont make you feel high and you can live almost a (normal) life.I said great so I left the pain care clinic and went too the methadone clinic,withen two years I had gained over 100lbs,my leggs and body retained so mych water that 180 mg of lasics want even working,three more years went by which brings me to now,I started a detox in October of 2006 and I was on 150mg of liquid methadone I am now on 30mg going down 2mg every Tues.This Tues I move to 28mg..My point is folks Im proof if you want off its possible without getteing to awfully sick so far,I hope my story inspiers as many people as it possibly can to get off from opiates they are a slow silent killer:I would like to use this thread to help others in their quest for getting and remaining clean from opiates,illegal and perscribed...I in noway am a Doctor nor do I make any request that someone should do a detox:Thats an individual thing that needs to be decided by the individual...But Ill be here to help those who request it by telling them how Im doen it...Thank You ver much for listening:
Respectfully,Cincykid
