Question about Prednisone -Please answer June 8, 2009 at 10:14 pm Is it illegal to purchase Prednisone online? I have taken it before in the past for chronic pain. It takes 2 months to get an appointment to see my doctor and I was thinking about taking a low dose (5mg) a day for my chronic pain. I have done the pain pill route and would prefer the Prednisone. What are your thoughts? Need Help With Opana/Suboxone Detox June 8, 2009 at 2:07 pm Here is my background. After many years of being surrounded by people partying on the stuff I never ever used opiates. But about two years ago, I was in much pain due to a chronic back problem and I let myself use my mother's opiates while she was in the hospital. That was the lamest day of my life. Since then I have been on and off opiates. I discovered suboxone, found a good doctor and successfully got off the opana. That lasted about 6 months, then I slipped again. So here is my deal. My mother knows my situation and is totally supportive. She does not want to be on opana anymore, but the doctor wants to keep her on it. She has finally agreed to start tapering my mother off. That will help so much. Once the ******** is out of the house, I will not seek out buying off the street. I don't have the money and would never waste our limited resources to get high. I am just not wired to be irresponsible in that way. In two months there will no longer be any opana in the house. The main reason for being on the suboxone, was to prevent me from getting high. So that won't be an issue. Right now we share the opana. So as she has tapered off so have I. I have gone from taking 100 mg of Opana ER and 2-3 10 mg of the breakthrough opana a day, to now taking 40 mg of Opana ER and 2-3 10 mg of the breakthrough opana, a day. I want to get off the opana and start back up on the suboxone. BUT I have a limited supply of suboxone, limited fiscal resources, so I can no longer afford to see my doctor. I also don't want to be on suboxone for years. Finally it also makes me sick to my stomach. I have tried 5 times to make the switch and I keep getting sick. This did not happen the first time I cleaned up. I figured I just need to ride it out, but that means I need a few days to make the transition. So how should I do this. I know it is better to be under the guidance of a doctor, but I can't. I have about 40 x 8 mg tablets of suboxone. I need a game plan. I am serious about do this and staying clean, I just need some help figuring out how to use what I have and then how to taper off the suboxone. Any feedback would be so appreciated. Thank you. Ambien to sleep off withdrawals June 8, 2009 at 10:16 am O.k. Im very scared right now. I am on day 3 of no percocet. I have been following Thomas Recipe but didnt have Xanax or Valium so have been using my prescribed Ambien during the day as well as at night. So 2 doses instead of one so that I could rest during the day. Now Im worried that this is very dangerous. I just took a dose about 20 min ago and am scared. My last dose was last night around 10:30 and I was awake at 5 am this morning and didnt take this dose until about 9;30 am. I wont be doing it anymore just want to stop freaking out about it. Ugh how the ---- did it get to so bad. Sleeping pills at night pain pills all day and everyone wonders why I have been psysho about how I hate all the meds I have to take. Please forgive my ranting just so sick of all of this. Going to move away from the state I am in so decided wanted to go with a fresh start all the way around. I will take any advice. Thanks for listening. Sick and tired of being sick and tired need help..roxicodone withdrawal June 8, 2009 at 8:59 am Okay..so a little background. Me and my husband have been on opiates/hydros for about 5 years. It started off for fun..pop a vicodin here and there for some energy. Well..that of course got out of hand pretty quick. We moved on to Norco, Percocet, Lortab...anything we could get(all bought off the street mind you). Well, my husband got in a bad car accident in July of 2008. He started pain management and his doc prescribed him Roxy's. I dont know how many of you are are familiar with Roxicodone but they are a very strong opiate. Well, he gets 210 a month and they are gone in 3 weeks usually because we both abuse them. He takes about 8 a day and I take about 5. We both feel like we can not function without them. My brain is so trained to take them..I wake up in the morning and my first thought is to grab the bottle and pop one to start my day. We have both gotten to the point where we absolutely can not function without them. We have been through withdrawal 3 times, and we always go back. The lack of sleep usually makes us go right back. As of right now, this is day 2...he has not fell asleep yet and he has been in bed since 11pm. It is now after 7am. He talks about wanting to die because he can not sleep. He has tried Valium, Xanax, and every OTC sleeping pill. The pain in our legs and back is unbearable as well. Here are my 2 questions...or concerns rather. He goes back to his doc in 9 days...of course he will get his script. We REALLY want quit. I am so sick of relying on a damn pill to live my life. I dont remember what it feels like to be "normal"..that scares me. What if I dont like myself being clean...I only know life being all jacked up. If we quit together, what if we dont like each other anymore..what if I'm a bad mom without these pills that give me energy to go do things with my kids, get my house clean. And then..what if he is in so much pain without the meds that he really cant function. We have never been addicts of any drug. I never in my life thought this would be us. I feel worthless. I feel so weak, no will power against these pills. I never knew a damn pill could make you feel so horrible once you dont have it. Everyone says.."when will I feel normal again". I'm scared to know. I don't remember what normal is. (sorry so long...I'm withdrawaling right now so bad and Im trying to focus on anything but pills...I guess ranting and venting helped for the last 6 minutes..lol) Oh I forgot to mention..the few times we have withdrawled..for me..the anxiety is insane. Ive never had anxiety and it scares the hell out of me. What should I do now? June 8, 2009 at 6:35 am I was wondering if anyone can tell me the answer to this. I have a vaild perscription for Vicodin and I left 4 pills in my friends car on accident. They got pulled over later that day with the Vicodin in their back sea, were I had been sitting. The car was detail searched by the police and K9 unit. Needless to say, pills found. My friend was chaged with possession of a contralled substance by the court. If I were to write a letter and send with it a copy of my perscription, would I get in trouble for that? The pills weren't in the bottle, I was going to take them after we went out to eat and didn't want to bring the whole thing in case we got pulled over and the police suspected me of selling them. Please help! I don't want a close friend to go to jail because I left my things in thier car. Bye Friends-stay strong June 7, 2009 at 11:33 pm The thing that has bothered me the most about this site was when someone just disappeared and I didn't know what happened to them. I always felt like I failed at helping them even though I didn't do much here other than try to relate to what they were going through or to try to get them focus on what they needed to get done here. I always wished I had done more to keep them around. I know some people just got well and moved on and others just weren't ready to get well. I guess I can live with that now. So I wanted to say goodbye to all. I think I am ready to move on now. I'm hopeful the time I have under my belt will see me through. I know it will and I owe it to so many of you here. I will read from time to time I'm sure, that's what us addicts do, lol. I am mostly posting for the people who I recently told I wouldn't leave and I would be there for during their withdrawals. My explaination is that I had my feelings hurt by someone here I respect and I can get that in the "real" world... so that seems like a better plan right now. Take care. You are in good hands with all the great people on this site. i don't need any reponses, believe it or not, I am not a drama person but I had to post so I didn't leave some of you hanging. I go back to how I felt when people just disappeared on me and I didn't want to be one of those. Keep fighting the fight. i made it, so can you!!!!! :D   This email was sent to skripayura.drugsnews@blogger.com.  Create Your Account Don't want to receive this feed any longer? Unsubscribe here.
