Question by digitalstorm: Can i go from methadone treatment to pain management?
I’ve been going to the methadone clinic for about 2 years now for chronic pain, which is not what opiate replacement therapy is designed for. I’ve used the clinic because I’ve had no insurance, and methadone has helped with the pain, and it’s 360 dollars a month, vs pain management therapy at 3000 dollars a month w/o insurance.
But now I’ve been legally disabled for 2 years, and I’ll have Medicare beginning this week. Are there any rules against a methadone patient changing to a pain management program, and what would be the best way for me to transition?
I have chronic back pain and psciatica, and have been under some kind of pain treatment for about 7 years, mostly the m’done clinic.

Question by Pat: Suboxone to Methadone?
Hi,
I am a recovering heroin addict and have been clean for a couple of months now; my life has improved greatly and I owe much of that to Suboxone. That being said, I am still having cravings frequently. I talked to my social worker who specializes in drug addiction and recovery, and she said the cravings I have been having are more than usual even for a newly sober addict. She suggested I talk to my doctor about an increase in Sub dosage…I am presently on 12 mg a day. My question is, would I find more success with Methadone? I know nothing about Methadone and how succesful people generally are on it, ect. Or would an increase in my Suboxone dosage be worth a try first?
Thanks in advance for the help, I greatly appreciate it.
-Pc
