Default Starting Methadone today
Wish me luck. Can't get LDN right now. Changing providers, so who knows what the future may bring but I'm tired of Percocet not doing much and Methodone is shown to be a lot more effective with CRPS. Right now I'm a bit light headed and feeling odd.

Reading the patient materials this isn't like Percocet in that I can't just take it when I feel I need it, its a take as directed (2 x a day) med.

So far I think its helping some. But, just like with the other opiods, my sleep was restless last night.

I have been taking methadone for almost a year. I have notice how much better I am getting in conjunction with Caudill injections.

Its helping the pain for sure but I'm so tired all the time, out of it, plus the constipation, night sweats, increased reflux, etc. All kinds of side effects. Ugh.
