Im no medical expert…… just had to post that.

Im my experience, I think you’d be just fine to start a dose of suboxone. I think the ‘window’ for precipitated w/d is well over. at least IN MY EXPERIENCE I was less time away from my last dose of methadone/and higher when I started suboxone, and I DID NOT GET SICK.

It WILL HELP your w/d symptoms MUCH more than ultram/tramadol would/will.

IF I WERE YOU, if I were doing it agian, id start with a low dose, like 2mg. and wait about an hour and see how you feel.

with the tapering,, Ugh
I dont know what to say.
every person is different. I would try to stay on a low dose of sub as long as you can, just so the major acute w/d are gone. I dont know how much sub you have availible.

I dont think the w/d from the sub will be a big deal for YOU. everyone is different though. but you’ve got the full opiod w/d symptoms ‘fresh’ in your mind, and compared to that, the sub w/d is nadda. Just read some posts. MOST people say its NOTHING like full opiate w/d.

Im really trying to help,,,,, Im doing my best.
I hope Ive at least helped a little.
I dont know of anywhere else that has even HALF as much ACCURATE information. thats kinda what we strive for here.

Let me know If I can help anymore. K????
and I think your thread is just fine.
theres been many worse before you Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

I hope your doing ok
