I have many injuries too many too mention. Is methadone a good option for chronic pain management?

Hello, Ray! How are you?

No, actually Methadone is not a good option and is usually reserved to be used as a last resort, when someone has exhausted all their other pain management options. The reason for this is because Methadone is very highly addictive and most people never get off of it, even those that use it for addiction treatment, rather than pain. Most people end up taking it for life, since it also causes very severe withdrawal effects.

There are other options available that are much safer to use.

Has your doctor made any suggestions?

well ray i see you said many injuries which would indicate to me you were probably in a major accident like a car wreck or similar, i know many people with same circumstances and like them and me would probably need some form of pain managment for remainder of your life, like me they had no satisfaction of pain and general overall good feeling using the party pills that many doctors like to prescribe, with methadone thier is relief of pain, no withdrawl/letdown thru the afternoon hours and no desire to take more than i should to party as it doesn't seem to have a high element to it like the standard oxycotin, what goes up must come down or either keep taking more and more which i call the oxycotin plague, i am older and pain management to live as pain free as possible is my goal and nothing, nothing is better than methadone... good day my friend
