Suboxone Forum: Buprenorphine and Other Addiction Medications

Hi Ex, I am sorry you are struggling but want to commend you for stopping the lapse and getting back on sub so quickly. Did Medicaid completely cut you off from your sub or are you appealing and waiting for a review? I hope it's the latter and you will have your sub covered again. Is your Dr open to...

You were nothing but nice in your first post johnboy and he bit your head off. Good riddence!

If it were me I would find another Dr and start the appointment by explaining to him that you were on sub for addiction and the way you have been treated by other drs. Maybe if you are the one that brings it up it will help the Dr to see your true motives. Hat is right, nobody deserves to be treated...

I was on effexor a long time ago and if I would forget to take it in the morning I would feel extremely dizzy and horrible by lunch time. I was young and didn't realize I was dependant on it. I made the decision to get off it, I also hated the side effects. However all ad's affect everyone extremely...

This discussion wasn't about people on bup feeling comfortable in na, it was about the effectiveness of na. Your prior posts were stating that na doesn't work and the argument back was that for some it does, to each there own. No one was talking specifically about sub patients and na, we were discus...

Read my post again Ironic, and read yours, and tell me where I said the things you're suggesting. I have to agree, where did Tear say any of the things you have posted. Perhaps you misread his post? If you did not misread it I would appreciate if you could explain how you came to interpret his post...

I think it's horrible your Dr hasn't returned your calls. Even if he is not going to give you an early script he could at least have the compassion to inform you so your not sitting there by the phone just hoping it will ring. I am sorry you are suffering, and hope you can stay strong and make it th...

I'm sorry Johnboy, that must have been hard to see. Unfortunately your right, there isn't a Damn thing you can do about it. I sincerely hope for her sake and yours that she wakes up before harming herself. Addiction is such a scary disease and I wish more people in high places would wake up to the d...

You will not get Prec withdrawl from switching between the film and tabs. They are the exact same medication, just in different form. Like Rule said some people report getting better absorbtion from the strips. I switched from the strips to generic subutex tabs and didn't notice any difference.

First, what's wrong with you is that your an addict and nobody here thinks your stupid or that you are getting what you deserve. Many of us have been in your position at one time. I believe you should tell your boyfriend, especially since you are putting him in control of your meds. He needs to be a...

Yay! I am so proud of you! I know this hasn't been easy for you and know how bad you wanted it. You stayed determined and you did it and can relax and enjoy the remainder of your pregnancy. It depends on what dose you stopped at, how long you were on that dose and your own individual body chemistry ...

I am not arguing, I am simply posting the facts. I would not be addressing this but feel everyone reading this thread needs to have the accurate info since info is being posted. The pm us moderators are referring too was not an attack or response to an attack to another member. This pm was an attack...

I LOVE CHRISTMAS! However this year will be a drastically different one. Typically we spend Christmas Eve with my dad's side of the family and Christmas with my mom's. As a lot of you know I am in the process of moving and will be at my new home in North Carolina about a week before Christmas. This ...

When a pm is sent it is in your outbox until it is read. It was then in my inbox Saturday night so she read the pm Saturday night informing her of the banning and to contact us with any questions. She did not do so and was given well into the morning to do so. So I can't say she was dishonest about ...

Posting how or why treatments have or haven't worked for you is fine and that is all hat has done. What isn't ok is calling na a cult or posting about how shitty it is and that it doesn't work. Painter you are correct in that some of these posts are debating na and putting it down but they have not ...

I would like to correct a couple things Lilly so you have the facts as well as everyone else. 1st we made sure to give her time to respond, her account was not just turned off. The pm informing her was sent and received by her early evening Saturday. We waited for a response and one never came and s...

Agreeing with Hat's post had nothing to do with either of us being mods. I don't understand how anybody could disagree unless I missed something. I interpreted her post to say just respect each other. Not that people can't disagree but to not get personal about it. Everyone is free to post their var...

Ditto, great post! I would give you three thumbs up but I only have two!

Romeo and all members, I would like you all to know that the banning did not happen because of the relapse thread. Yes it was a piece to the puzzle but this is something that we had been dealing with prior to that thread spinning out of control. I do not feel it appropriate to post all details publi...

Hi, I am so sorry this is so hard for you, it's complete bullshit. I am in the process of relocating to North Carolina and have been referred to a Dr in Durahm. I have not seen him yet but I am on Subutex and the Dr that referred me to him said he has no problem writing a script for subutex. I have ...
