 4  80 mg daily I would advise not to start of Methadone unless you are prepared to stay with it as a maintanace therapy. I was told that this particulare narcotic can stay in your bones,this is why the long withdrawl. I started out as an opiate abuser after getting several teeth extracted at the age of 17 and the dentist asked me how i react to pain. I told him to please give me the strongest medicine I could have for this oral surgury . There were several rotten teeth and it took quite a much longer time according to my dentist. H then prescribed 30 tablets of 4mg dialadid which I had no clue what they were. After taking 2 to start and then another half for the unberable pain I had in my mouth these certainly took away the pain but I did not necessarily have any type of euphoric feeling. hat was the last I used until 3 weeks later when I had a small headache and took 2 of the dilaudid and that was all it took I basically knew then thatI wanted this type of feelings. After doctor shopping in Connect If going into a federal mandated clinic try to stay at the minimal amount of methadone I am sure most heard this as I had but my stubborn sttreak would not allow me to so it took much longer to get that "devi;" drug out of my system I am sure many will disagree with me but I proabably will be on pharmacuitical narcotics the rest of my life Started at 17 and now at 51 lol Let;s just say I could have probaly done quite a bit better with my life and I saw so many aquantinces and a few close freinds die well before their time Peace 51 18 days

 5  Pill addiction, 2 back surgeries Constipation, sweating, intense sweet cravings, weight gain ( 10lbs) but I ordered Vitadone and all of the side effects are GONE !!!! methadone is my miracle drug. I can live a normal life with my family :). I have very little break through pain, nothing an ibuprofen can't take care of. I plan to be on this medicine the rest of my life. I had 2 back surgeries with the 2nd one being a bi-level spinal fusion and it messed me up :( my dr said I have what is called failed back surgery. I also have nerve damage on my right side, osteoporosis , and arthritis . So yes methadone takes care of that for me to live a normal life, I have a very active 2yr old that I am able to play with and a 14yr old daughter that is happy to see her momma awake cause the other meds are my devil. Sorry for a little of my life story, lol, but thank you for reading it. Do not let the people who stereo type methadone as only something for junkies because it's NOT true . I NEVER intended to get addicted to the hydrocodones, but years of taking them and anybody and everybody will be addicted to them. F 36 9 months

 5  Pancreatitis/Whipple/total Pancreae Present: Sweating, sweet tooth, flushing Past: liver enzyme elevation, NODDING, severe weight gain, dental issues, poor hygiene, memory loss, hallucinations, cravings: sweets and nicotine I have had ALL experience with Methadone. I was born with a genetic complication with my Pancreas called Divisum that is very rare. It can be exacerbated by food, alcohol, infection and drugs. Being rare it was a difficult road and took years before accurate diagnosis. I went through pure hell with abdominal pain thought to be "gas" in my teens to accusations of alcohol induced pancreatitis in my 20s until a surgeon recognized it. I had a car accident that led to opiate addiction which caused severe pancreatitis that became chronic. At that time in 06-07, I went on Methadone(90mg) for 9 months. At that time, I had every single horrific side effect and I couldn't work due to nodding out. I was over medicated but in severe pain. The drug covered underlying infection and I couldn't wean because I was in so much pain! I didn't understand until I ended up in the hospital for 3 MONTHS. As it went back into remission, I detoxed and was able to be clean for 4 years. In 2013, I was on track, eating clean and in the best shape of my life!! Well, pancreatitis came back out of nowhere. Not kidding! And it was wicked, extraordinarily sick with liver enzymes in the 1000s(normal 20-65); vomiting nonstop until I ruptured a stomach vessel. I was once again on high end opiates and then my dr wanted me to do Methadone again for pain. Reluctantly, I agreed and for 3 months again found myself in ZOMBIEville with dose at 40mg through day with oxy for breakthrough. I was mean and miser F 38 6 months
