I was taking 100 mgs of either
Percocet, Vicodin and
Oxycontin, or a combo of two or three for about 2.5 months. I did
Suboxone treatment for one month. I started at 16 mgs, went immediately to 12 mgs, then to 8 mgs, then to 4 mgs over the month period. I jumped off at 4 mgs a little over 5 days ago. I am feeling very little, if any w/d symptoms. Extreme fatigue, slight nausea, a headache here and there. It's nothing compared to what I've been through before (jumped off 100 mgs of
Methadone cold turkey). Am I home free or what? Is five days enough time to say this is probably all I'm going to feel? I'm hoping it's not in like a lamb, and out like a lion! Anyone's input would be very helpful.
I quit Suboxone on my own, after reading the posts here. My Doctor out-and-out lied to me about Suboxone being addicting, and I believe him telling me he wants to treat me for a year is just so he can make money off me. I don't have the money for the treatment either. I've also suffered A LOT of side effects from Suboxone. However, it did help me. I am still thankful for it. I am also very thankful for all of you posting your experiences here. This is where the truth is.
