Methadone Is Worse Than Heroin!

I think...and even some true addict boards say their withdrawal from methadone was worse than a true drug withdrawal from heroin or other opiates. Granted I'm not a heroin user and never have been so this really sucks. I can barely move without feeling the need to either vomit or have severe shits...not good for my diabetes insipiduc to lose all this water and sodium and other electrolytes I'm sure. I'm on hold with the pharmacy now to see what the deal is. You know it is bad when people would rather quit heavy narcotics than to take this and have to quit from it. Obviously the docs have never taken the stuff or have never tried to come off the methadone. Please they probably keep taking it no matter what because the steal it from their supply...just kidding. I'm so tempted right now to take another one to kill the nausea but I know I'll just have to do it again. I haven't been able to really eat since Saturday when this all started. I'm sure that alone is not good for me. You know I'm sick if I can not eat ice cream...that is always my backup when I feel sick. The only thing that seems to stay in me is ginger ale and some milk...gross, I am sick of them both.

Great now the diabetes insipidus is kicking in and I am dripping with water and need to change my clothes again today. It's like a shower without the shower. Good thing it doesn't smell bad.

Damn, I'm still on hold! This is crazy! Not to mention that my neurosurgeons office is trying to bill me for three days when I wasn't even in the hospital...great another battle to fight. I swear all medical professionals and their billing departments should be shot! To put people through illness is bad enough and then to try and rob them when they can't even work to get any money is worse...and it's not like they would even let me go back to work yet! Okay, they are looking into the billing issue. I threated to report them so we'll see what happens.

Okay, no word yet from the pharmacist...still waiting....20 minutes later...insane...I'll let you know what happens...I need to lay down!
