Re: Methadone/cold turkey Oxy's/advice needed

[Guest guest]

I have always been worried if I had to go off my oxy's would it be extremely

painful or better yet what exactly is the absolute best-easiest manner in doing

so? I wish could just go to sleep take anti-oxy pill then wake up completely

un- " oxy " -ized. Is there a new med to help the process? Thanks and sorry for

being uneducated on the matter.

that can get away with it. I should have not done it but had no other way. All I

was trying to say was that doing it properly may not be as hard on a person as

other drugs would be. In no way was I advocating going cold turkey. Sorry for

any confusion.

there are drs that do that. They put you under sedation for so many days,

etc.

Good luck

Thanks Kathy thought I'd heard that somewhere but not sure if true. Guess my

pain doc would know rite? Just scares me to think of the withdrawal, however if

not for the oxy I'd probably not even be here now so worth it:) Thanks again

feel better.
