Need your suport comming down/off methadone

[colleen206]

Hi I just seen this updated forum, I am on 26 mg's of methadone, I come along way with break's inbetween from 160 mg's, So I wish I could come down at 2 mg's a week, But I havta check first by comming down 1 mg a week, I will see in 2 week's, But it's hard to tell when your down on such a low level, I know the slower the better, maybe I just need to be patient, I see alotta people here, If anyone want's to talk, just let me know, Sincerely a Friend that care's.   PS Yes I am a scardy cat

Im new so not sure if this is the right place to.ask. I get my methadone on the street and been using very little for pain , which I think may be caused by the methadone. I originally started for back injury. I take 25 mg on and off, not going to.take anymore, could this all over muscle pain be from the.methadone?

HEY GIRL YOUR doing great your getting down to the nitty gritty it can become difficult from here down it hit me at 20mg like a brick wall just know it is normal sloooooow is good it alows your serum level to drop off gradually meening you wont feel itas much the lower your dose the more you will feel its different for everybody I have had people complane from60mg but most its around 20 where it starts to give you problem just hang in there if you feel it stop till it goes away you will have some discomfort but thats to be expected just so its manageable keep posting for support where all out here for you good luck and God bless...Gnarly.
