Private Doctor To Prescribe Methadone Instead Of Clinics In Fort Worth Tx

Updated

I took Hydrocodone for pain for several years and became very dependent. I have been going to a Methadone Clinic now for 2 years and it saved my life. I have led a productive life since. I take care of my parents and they both are bedbound. It is getting so hard for me to go to the clinic daily. Does anyone know of a private doctor in Fort Worth Texas that subscribes Methadone? Thank you for your help

Have you considered a possible switch to Suboxone? It has been very successfully used to enable people to become completely drug free, rather than staying dependent on something, as often happens with Methadone.

Treatment with it is also often done with a take home prescription, rather than always having to go to a clinic for a daily dose.

You can check for a doctor in your area at the website Suboxone.com

I did try to search in your area for outpatient Methadone treatment, but all the ones I found require inpatient treatment or daily clinic visits.

I'm on suboxone now and just moved to the Waco ft. Worth area I'm having the worse time finding a Dr. Even knowing the web site that has the 20 of them listing that prescribe it they either won't take anymore patients or are booked for months methadone just seems easier to get but I don't want to get re-hook after kadien and hydrocodone for years any suggestions?

Honey if you have Insurance I really encourage you to try Suboxone. It's so much less 'muddy' than Methadone, and you can get a month's worth of strips. Has kept me from my horrible addiction since I started taking it 3 years ago. Good Luck!

This is ridiculously insanity. For some people such as my self the whole methadone thing has gone mad! The only way anybody can get their hands on it anymore is going to a clinic every single f***ing day.I mean how ridiculous.I almost lost my job because the methadone dispensing hours conflicted with my work schedule. And our only take home dose was.given to us on Saturdays because Sundays the clinic is.closed and.sunday was my only day off work. I almost lost my kids again. Im court mandated to keep my job in order.to.not.lose my kids .they aren't gonna care if it's over methadone.they are gonna think im.nuts.instead I have to suffer on Oxy cottons for.the rest.of my life.im on the highest dose of.oxy.the dr.can.prescribe.and.its.beginning to.be.not.enough.im already almost out and have weeks before I can get.a.refill.which I.will have.to resort.to Something.stronger on.the streets. I've been.on.oxys for.over a decade.and I do not wanna.be on them.anymore.I already missed.all my work days because.of the dang methadone clinic.who told me once im clean will work around.my.job.schedule which.was.an.out Right.lie.noone can get any methadone these.days on the street and.noone even.knows of a.private dr who.dispenses anymore! Isn't there one that I can see after work once a month or even.once a week? I get off work before most offices are closed ,but I have to pick up kids from school. But if its not every day and only a once to four times a month.thing Im sure.Something.can.be arranged.to where i.can.have a friend pick them up.or I Can request my day off to be Monday instead of Sunday.PLEASE.HELP ANYONE

If you say you are taking Methadone for pain and describing the relief akin to morphine... you sir are self delusional. Medically, you must be the exception to 99% of the population.. Methadone is worse than H to detox from. It has become a savior to some and a curse for most others and that's why I hope this reply reaches many ears. It is like trading a monkey for a gorilla on your back. These outfits that are licensed to dispense methadone are in a money agenda maintenance mode and not on a mode which gets you stable and then a gradual forced detox so one can regain their LIFE...
Listen real hard to these words people.. the Truth is a powerful weapon. Get off this insidious drug mister.

Yeah dude, but only after a year or more giving them money so you can get higher step levels . What are you some mole from a maintenance clinic.....You did not tell the whole truth and have mislead others. That is simply not right......you need to get somewhere..

You have a computer ...so work it crybaby. Pain mgmt with methadone my butt....no such thing dude and don't think you are not misleading others by saying this. Look up the medical physiology of actually what, where, and how methadone does it's work and then rethink what you are so pitifully saying. I suggest you do not post anything until you know what you're talking about .

LISTEN TO THIS PERSON FOR REAL! DO NOT EVER PUT METHADONE IN YOUR BODY! I've been stuck/tied down to this clinic for 10+ years even though I have followed protocol and have remained clean from all opiates my husband and I have made a small life for ourselves. But still tied down to this clinic bc of the severity of the withdrawal... yes I have walked my dose mgs. down, they have complete control of ur whole life. It's almost like a drug dealer, if u do something they don't approve of, such as consume cannabis, they can and will throw u out and don't care how much u suffer from withdrawal. Yes you can acquire "take-homes" but u must fall under THEIR criteria to do so and its only 2 weeks at a time no matter how long you have been there on the medication. They can even kick you off the clinic if u have medication prescribed to you from another doctor and I'm not even talking about opiates. They don't care if you take those as long as they know about it. I have a life and my family back but due to the fact that the doctors and staff can now run PMPs which breaks/violates ur HIPPA law to find out what doctors u are seeing and what other medication you are having filled at any pharmacy... many people are finding themselves in the same boat as I. They took my take-homes and my husband's as well bc we see a therapist that was very aware we were on the clinic and prescribed us both medication that they didn't approve of. Even though the methadone clinics claim their anonymous, they're not. They thrive off of $ and keeping people tied down to them for life if they feel they're about to lose patients.

You should really know your facts before you cut other people down. So snotty too. Like you know something when you clearly dont.; ""They do prescribe methadone for pain. Why wouldn't they. Its a narcotic and it works wonderfully for pain. I should know...I take it. As do many many people. You really made yourself look like a stupid know it all who knows nothing about pain management. Matbe you should quit messageing until you can apologize to that person.

Re: Robyn (# 77) Expand Referenced Message

I've been on Methadone for 12 years for pain my clinic which is very good here in New Jersey. They are good in every way but the medication. They don't give out the red syrup, they were giving out something that attacked my stomach and it was horrible. I had esophagitis and I would almost throw up every time I took it. When given I don't know what to do because I don't want to switch to fentanyl but the new stuff they're giving us is all pure sugarless flavor free, so on so forth, and it's not doing what it should be doing. I'm on 130 mg. Yeah, it ends up knocking me out, but not until after. And it's not helping the pain and I don't want this. I don't know where else to turn and I will not go on that though can somebody tell me the proper ingredients of methadone and why the clinics don't give the same stuff out? Thank you, Donna

You need to look up the VA/DoD report on all drugs there is about right or nine pages on methadone. One of the good things about methadone is that it doesn't collect in the kidneys or liver. All other pain meds do

You people do realize that methadone is point-blank the hardest thing to get off of in the whole Drug World any kind of medication you'll ever get on will never ever be not even half as hard to get off methadone in methadone kills you from the inside out you're crazy as hell to ever take methadone and especially if you're on hydrocodone and went from Hydrocodone to methadone are you serious that's a joke in itself.

Methadone is the only thing that worked for me. Ice tried suboxone,abstinence,and others.But it was methadone and GOD that pulled me out of the depths of opiate abuse. Ice been on methadone for ten years and although ill be on methadone for the rest of my life. At least I could live without the he'll of getting money everyday. And for that I am thankful for the mgmt.

She's going to have go daily for a period of time before they'll give her weeklies or monthly. I'm on monthly's but I've been going to methadone clinics for eternity it seems. But it keeps me straight and I've been employed at the same company for the last twenty years. It's not for everyone but it works for me.
