Urine Test Test For Subuxone?
UpdatedTo anyone who might want to help or give advice~
I am hoping you will see this and can reply as soon as possible. (as well as anyone else who might be reading) I am a 29 year old, newly single mother and I have been on pain medication for 9 years. I have severe endometriosis, a tumor in my left ear/head called Cholesteatoma and I was just diagnosed with an Auto-Immune Disorder which has put me in so much pain daily that I can hardly get normal daily functions done at all (as well as other health issues, but those are the biggest). I just recently I have made the decision to get off of opiots/narcs (I used to take 30mg of oxycodone 8 times a day and they also had my on 125mcg of Fentynal Patches, but in the recent months have taken myself down to only 10/325 of percocet 3 times a day (no fentynal at all, and I did this by myself very slowly and now see a new doctor as I was disgusted with how much medication they were throwing at me.) I am SICK and TIRED of taking pain medication as I feel it is slowly sucking the life out of me. I am starting over as a single mother and because of my illnesses I can no longer work (I used to be a physiotherapist) but now, I am NOT wanting to let this get in my way and have been working on an online boutique to help support my baby and I. I want my life back!!!......So, now to the question I am hoping to get answered.
A few days ago (2/13/2013 I was down to my last 2 pills. A family member of mine got ill and had to be hospitalized (I didn't want to leave their side) and due to that, I missed my appt to get my refill so I just started cutting them into 4's. On valentines day my withdrawls were so bad I couldn't take it anymore, and I know this is totally illegal, but my uncle gave me two 8mg/2mg Subuxone strips swearing that not only would it take my withdrawls away, but that it would help with my pain and I would be able to get off of the pain medication finally and get my life back. I took the first one and within 30 minutes I almost felt like my old self which I havn't felt in 9 years, and even though a small amount of my pain was still there, it was better than what the pain medications were doing to me (which was always tired, could never have the energy to get up and do anything, plus I was tired of being labeled as a drug user and treated like one! I have very serious health issues and I HAD to take them just to even shower in the morning, but I was & still am sick of being dependant on them day after day..I am just done!)
Anyways, I had the best day ever on the 14th and just took the last/second strip that he gave me on the 16th at 9pm. I want to bring up to my doctor when I go in on monday, that I want to be taken off of the pain medication and put on subuxone, (which they have indeed mentioned it before to me, but I was too afraid of what might happened if I had stopped taking the percocet so I turned it down) The only thing I am afraid of, is if they urine test me (which they only do once every 4 months or so, and not even that since I have been the perfect patient *until now of course* and I feel horrible about it) I am afraid that if they do, I will come up positive for the subuxone (remember, I only had 2 strips one on valentines day and another Saturday night at 9pm) I don't want to get in trouble, but I feel that getting on the sub will be the only way I can start to make a better life for myself so I can take care of me and my daughter better......Everytime I take a pain pill I hate myself, I despise it and it has started to cause major depression too....and on top of that, if I ever go into the hospital, etc. etc. people treat me like I am a drug addict because I am on them, even with my underlying medical conditions!) I need to be free of them, and the subuxone was a dream come true even though there was still some slight pain, but I rather live with that, than have to take 8 pills a day again (although like I said above, I did ween myself down and went through withdrawls before I started the sub)
Will I be ok if my doctor does indeed ask me to do a urine test? I feel so guilty and horrible as I have never done anything, ever, outside of what my dr. told me to take and how much etc.......So not only will I be asking her to start me on subuxone (which I think I will have to lie to her and let her know that I am already withdrawing? since I read somewhere that the only way it can work for someone is to be withdrawing from the oxy's in the first place? or is that for only if you are an addict wanting to get off of illegal drugs and or narcotics/opiots) and if because I took the 2mg strip will it show up in the urine test? Also, I am using this to help my with my pain, not just to get off of pain medication as I do have chronic pain & health issues.
I am so sorry if this was long winded or confusing. I just need some help/guidance since I have never broken the rules before and I don't want to let my Dr. down. I hope someone can help. Thank you for your time. Also, before I go, I have a feeling I will start to feel withdrawls on monday or tuesday anyway since that last strip was Saturday night, and this itself is really scaring me. I just don't want to put another oxycodone, perc, or vicodin in my mouth ever again!! I want to get on the road of recovery and help my pain but not be on that stupid medication ever again! I want to be able to play with my child since she is getting older. Thanks again, and I apologize for the very long post.
