Default help me pls about methadone

my dad was on methadone for about 8 yrs and he stopped taking it up until this year. he has been on 100mg of methadone a day and he loves to take xanaxs. we have known him to take over a 50 xanaxs within 10 days when he was prescribed only 3 a day and drinking alcohol too.
now he is in the hospital b/c his feet and all of his legs are so swollened. it is similiar to cellutilas. he isnt a diabetic and they have him on strong antibiotics. now day 4 almost they moved him into ICU b/c he is having trouble breahting and they now have a breathing tube down his throat.
can someone please help me or give me some information about this b/c the doctors dont seem to really know. i am scared of losing him..

thanks very much tiffany

Methadone has nothing to do with your dad's problems.He has liver damage from abusing alchohol and xanax for years.I wish you and him all the best and he can make a full recovery.The liver has remarkable healing powers.....Dave
