Yeah what Romeo said that’s def an option. Doctors might want you on Remeron before TCA’s because TCA’s are riskier in overdose. But if insomnia and anxiety is one of your things, TCA’s & Tetracyclics like Remeron def will knock you out. Remeron I found has no sexual side-effects, TCA’s can potentially have them but generally not as bad as SSRI/SNRI’s.

I’m on Clomipramine (TCA) now after Remeron stopped working. I wouldn’t recommend Clomipramine as a TCA if you have sleeping problems. It actually keeps me up at night. Nortryptaline / Amitryptaline are common TCA’s that make you sleepy.

Sorry to hear that you are in pain! Yes Suboxone is 30 times stronger than morphine but they don’t have anywhere close to the analgesic properties of morphine, especially since you are not opiate nieve. Bupeornorphine is a partial agonist of the mu receptor where morphine, dialaudid, oxi are full agonist. In my experience, the pain relief is short and a tad stronger than 800 Advil. For pain, people tab subs every 4 hours as pain properties are not long term.

I really have never heard of a person being treated with subs for pain as as high of a dose that you are on. Are you seeing a pain management specialist?

It takes a special breed to get anywhere in american politics today. The media will make or break you. Having said this, despite Ron Paul’s ideas, his honesty and his smarts, I’m not sure he was ever very good at clearly expressing himself and that is really important today. I wish he could have spoken stronger, if that makes sense. He allowed himself to get railroaded and he has this whiny type voice that didn’t come off well, presidentially. It really is such a shame, the whole darn thing.

Basically, we’re all fucked. Globally. Happy Saturday!!

Thx for your response. That’s funny u ask that, the birth control im on (implanon) ran out 3 months ago. I thought that myself but I’ve been tested and im definitely not. Don’t know why he gave me subutex instead, maybe cuz I’ve never been a shooter and subutex is a little cheaper? The birth control issue may also b the reason for the sleepiness. I just started working so i plan on taking care of the bc issue, then see how i feel. Im scared of reducing my dose anymore cuz of cravings so i hope to work thru it.

I’ve written in detail about the bold move by Reckitt-Benckiser that few people outside the company saw coming.  In brief, the company has been cruising across the Atlantic for the past ten years, fueled by stellar growth of its flagship medication, Suboxone—even as the expiration of the patent on the medication loomed ahead (y’know– like an iceberg).
