Evidently, the MedHelp Techs are having an ongoing (over 4-5 months) problem with "widgets" in general which has kept us from having easy access to the Health Pages.  SOOOO....until they get the widget problem fixed...here's the GENERAL LINK to ALL Health Pages:

http://www.medhelp.org/search/expanded?cat=health_pages&query=Addiction

There is A LOT of good reading in those Health Pages...up to 59 articles I believe.  I used the heck out of them when I first found this forum~

Thanks for putting the links up CIK!  I'm sure I got the the health pages the other way but I guess not...I don't like not having a direst icon for the pages!

Hi...well the first thing you need to do is get a 3 in one vitamin
calcium/magnesum/zinc  you can get a big bottle for 6 bucks at wamart
take 4 with breakfast and 4 with dinner   this will greatly reduce the amount of withdrawals you will be getting tapering off methadone I found it 1/2 way threw my detox wish I had found it sooner it takes a few days to start to work but I recamend it to all those getting off of methadone keep posting for support we all want t see you get well.......................................Gnarly.................................

Hello to you and welcome to the forum!

Here's the links that were mentioned above:

http://www.medhelp.org/health_pages/Addiction/Thomas-Recipe-Re-Posted/show/16?cid=66

http://www.medhelp.org/tags/health_page/45/Addiction/Amino-Acid-Protocol?hp_id=15

In addition to the suggestions in those articles....adding Emergen-C is a grand idea; also Cal/Mag/Zinc supplement; LOTS of water and eating some lean protein along with fresh veggies and fruits.

Hope that helps.....keep posting.....glad you're aboard~

Hi-  Just above here and to the left you'll see a search icon. It's the shape of a magnifying glass. Click on that and then you can search. If you type in Addiction Health Pages, it will bring you to a boat load of info including Thomas and Amino protocol.  Best of luck!
