Thank you for this post. My PCP recommended Methadone because my current dose of hydrocone was not providing enough pain relief.. He is resistant to increase hydro yet will switch me to methadone. No thanks!!! There is a stigma when I hear the names alone of these opiods. I'm trying alternative methods such as a supplement protocol and lidocaine infusions in addition to the 5mg of hydro. CBD/Medical marijuana still looming as possibilities. I hope you are free and clear of that drug and you are still finding pain relief. Be well.
