What Is Better for Long Term Pain Combined With an Addiction to Vicadin? Suboxone or Methodone?
Question by waterfun333: What is better for long term pain combined with an addiction to vicadin? Suboxone or methodone?
I’m been just reciently put on on Suboxone by my doctor and I feel that it works well for the vicadin cravings, but I’m not sure if its cutting the pain. I was on methodone for a few weeks and that also worked well, i just did not like going to the clinic and they had to detoxed me with a month lapse before putting me on a maintance program. During that lapse my phsc doctor put me on Soboxone. I don’t think my doctor will prescribe methodone, but will Soboxone. I have no insurance and the Soboxone is really expensive. I don’t know what to do?
My Chronic pain is from 3 herniated discs. I’m waiting for a disc implant on the worst of the three, but my previous insurance company said it was experimental even though 4 doctors said that i needed it and the FDA approved disc implants 2 years ago. The doctors don’t want to do a triple fusion because i will loose to much mobility and with a fusion it has to rely on the strength of the other discs which are also herniated. So, I’m waiting until the insurance companies decide that it is no longer experimental. Crazy how an insurance company can trumpt both the FDA and 4 doctors. So, while waiting, I got addicted to the vicadin and thats why i’m interested in monitored pain relief
