REASON TO LIVE? YOU KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT!
P-E-R-C-O-C-E-T!
Dr 9’s stand in has me on 10/325s x 5 per day (10mg oxycodone, 325mg APAP) for now. I see him in two weeks, when we will talk about the dose and my past medical records (from Dr W), bloodwork from a few months ago, etc.
CHRONIC OPIOID ANALGESIC THERAPY!
Pain is a 5/5!
Things were getting horribly bleak, and I have christened Dr 9’s stand-in Dr ML&S for My Lord & Saviour, accordingly.
That’s all for now!
[Anxiety: 10/10. I had to pee in a cup on Monday, when I saw Dr ML&S. I watched Lost with some pot smokers Thursday, but didn't partake... If my piss is dirty it could affect my treatment... Plus Dr Douchebag has me on Douchebag-level treatment for my anxiety, of course.
So I call Super-Mega-Ultra-Not-Jinx so that everything works out! (And yes... I consider myself rational, but for a few insane superstitions. At least I recognize them to be insane... And most of them are OCD-ish tendencies, not real superstitions.)]

have you ever considered methadone maintenance treatment ?

Definitely. It was one of the treatments I thought would be most effective.
However, I’m now on 40mg OxyContin daily to manage my pain. It saved my life. It’s likely that methadone treatment would have done the same. Unfortunately, methadone is even more vilified than OxyContin… And I had to go through a very literal hell to obtain Oxy…
Thanks so much for reading, for the comment, and for bringing up a fibro treatment I’m sure would be very effective and is very under-utilized.
To read the latest about what’s going on with me and my fibro treatment, I now post here:

Again, thank you very much. I hope you continue reading!
