My mother needs help and im trying to help her.
Long story short she's been seeing the same psych for around 15 20 years he retired. She's on 24 mg a day of suboxone and she's 63 she takes the suboxone because she does have pain issues and past addiction issues. With all that said i am wondering if they put her on methadone because methadone is a lil better for pain management how do you transition from suboxone to methadone? She would prefer just subutex but its up to the doctors? Do you think any doctor in there right mind would stop a past addict in pain thats 62 and take her off suboxone or do you think they will have no problem? I found a private practice doctor that's closer to her he prescribes suboxone and is on the list of prescribers.......i really hope it works out for her because I can see her going back to using.
