It is totally unnecessary for doctors/rehab to be so blind and uninformed.
Data about methadone has been out for about 5 years. I have been posting
about the risk for about 2 of those.
I have a post on Chronic Pain here if it would help your website:

it is post #4.
Switching people over to high dose methadone from other opioids is not
safe without cardiac EKG testing to rule out congenital prolonged QT events.
4 months on Percocet could be tapered by your doctor. Why a dramatic rehab was done, I don't understand.
I am so sorry for your loss!
