We do, but many of us work, so be patient and don't expect an answer in 9 minutes.
Methadone is 11 times stronger then morphine, so about 3mgs would be equal.
I would only recommend methadone as the last choice option, and only if you plan on staying on it for the rest of your life, you need to read up on it before you make a decision to switch.

100% free of all narcotics, while minimizing your withdrawl symptoms to nothing or almost nothing

Bull! Sure if you're anesthetized you won't experience withdrawal symptoms, but you make it sound like you wake up 9 hours later symptom free, which is misleading. Even after 24 hours (as your spammed site claims) withdrawal symptoms will not be "nothing or almost nothing" while narcotic free, I'll bet my sweet ass you would have to put the patient on Buprenorphine, which is an opioid, hence narcotic. That's THE only way anyone would walk out without withdrawal symptoms. Conveniently located in beautiful Las Vegas, maybe you can hit a casino on the way out and recoup the $9800 you just gam.bled away at your hack clinic. Get out.
p.s
Learn how to spell withdrawal, Oxycontin, and Methadone.
