Hi Nacho:

Does the methadone affect the digestive tract like the fentanyl pain patches (or vicodin) did??? Alan never was able to go to the bathroom while he wore these patches. He went, maybe once a week. I mean, it did what it had to do for the pain but the side effects were horrible. And he was up to 125 of the fentanyl. My friend who had stage 4 lung cancer, (this was 5 years ago), we only went to 100 of the patch before he passed away.

Just imagine, Alan was on 125 of the patch and took vicodin for breakthrough pain. All I can say is thank God for Dr. Theirl and whatever he did to get rid of Alan's pain so now he doesn't use anything for pain!!!



FOR SUE:
If you read my recipe for the muffins, there is no sugar added. Of course there is some sugar because it starts with a Jiffy muffin mix but after that, it's all splenda and no sugar added apple sauce.

I think, if you go on the interent and type in "no sugar muffins", you might get a recipe using bisquick, or pancake mix and sugar substitutes.

But honestly, I eat one or two of these things every day and this morning my sugar reading was 117. It was 400 4 years ago. So I must be doing something right??? I never put sugar in my coffee or whatever. There is no sugar in my house. I only use Stevia or Splenda.

Thankfully, we have these muffins so if Alan wants a snack, besides his cereal, yoghurt, bananas, etc. (he eats all night by the way) & I don't eat after 6 p.m., well, I guess I don't have his metabolism and he goes to the gym every other day so he builds muscles.

The day I pick up a weight again, well shoot me!!!
