BBoy brings up a GREAT point.. Why is subutex so hard to get prescribed? Like they said, if your DR has been supportive, and it sounds like he has, that might be a doable option.. That, along with Taurus’ suggestion of lowering your dose might help you.. Don’t give up on it.. I know that if I had to give up the subs I’d probably relapse fairly quickly..Keep trying, it’s worth it..

First .5 mg dose of bup. – 6 hrs later and very nauseous

Thanks for checking in. After that killer headache I decided that bup wasn’t for me; at least at this point. A few days ago I got a script for generic Norco and after three years of no opiates I started with 1/2 a pill. My doc said as long as I stick to no more than 20 5mg pills a month she’s ok with that. Having been down this road before, I am much more cautious and will watch for dependence to form and deal with it before it gets out of hand.

I just have to do something about this pain.

1 week today no sub. Feeling pretty good. I have really set myself up to have an easy transition. Still having some symptoms but nothing cry over. Lastnight I did notice some body sensations in yoga (bikrams/hot yoga). What people describe as the "begining of the flu" Again these are not horrible. I am feeling them today as well. I noticed it more when I got into my hot vehicle. It felt like my body was chilled or at least colder than the truck. Anyway I am more tired today than I have been in the past few days, but I am not stressing. My body is trying to adjust and I am allowing it to go thru whatever it needs. I am being pretty easy on myslef. When I get a burst of energy I utilize it and when I am less energetic, I honor that. My back is still slightly achy, I have sneezed 3 times today, (the fun stuff)That is about it I guess, until next time, Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Thanks for the welcome. I made it through a Friday. A local drug dealer called me 3 times today which didn’t make it easy but the suboxone did it’s job and I did mine. Next time he calls I’ll have to tell him to stop calling because I will no longer be needing his services!
