Thanks so much for your thoughts. Yes, I was on a very low dose of opiates, MS Contin 40 mg a day, then a brief time on Methadone, only 5 mg tid and had some of these same symptoms, and I was tolerant and that’s why I wanted to go off them altogether. So, some of the symptoms I have are the same as back then just more intense. What I am finding is that some of those symptoms are lessening as I increase , yet some may be adverse effects. Either way I am miserable, but I think we are all afraid to make big changes right now. I am working with my dr. but it’s a bit discouraging. My feeling is that with the subox I just don’t tolerate it, like I just don’t tolerate the full agonists. The info on subutex is interesting. I just appreciate the support here, and who knows.. maybe we’ll find an answer down the road. Thanks again,
Anita
