I do not know but can you see if they could put you on saboxone instead of the methadone?  If you can not afford it maybe there is a Psych that can prescribe and get a deal from the maker.  Look it up  and check it out..

It is unlikely. The opiates are in a special class and federal authorities have been exerting substantial pressure on physicians with respect to prescriptions.
