Yes, of course I am addicted to opiates== the reason I am taking Suboxone. For the past 4 years, I have taken anything I can get my hands on, methadone, oxycontin, oxycodone, hydrocodone, etc. If i don’t take it, i feel very sick and have withdrawals. And, I have already found a potential doctor accepting new patients.

So your telling me, that because I am already taking it for a little while, I have to lie, and then go back to taking my DOC for a while just so the doctor doesn’t think im already on suboxone. that doesn’t make any sense..wow. I really don’t want to go take my DOC. I have been clean for a little while now. I can’t believe a doctor would say no just because I am already taking it. I would think they would applaud me for coming in and getting my own prescription.

Anybody else been in a similar situation?

It could work. It could also blow up in your face and then you’ll need to find another doctor. Can you afford the risk? If you can, tell the truth..it’s easiest for the doctor to help you if he knows what’s up.

However, we know that this would NOT work with any other drug, and many doctors look at addicts and all they see is liability. Its not fair, it’s not fun, but it happens.

Personally, the clinic I went to when I inducted on Sub required a dirty u/a, but some people on here didn’t have that experience.

It may not be right, I just told you what I would do, bc I wouldn’t have the $$ for a do-over. I’m glad I’m
not in your shoes at the moment, but I wish you luck all the same.
