Had been in hospic for Aids. Doc thought I would die, but got better. Placed on 150 mg of methadone per day and 30 mg of morphine per hour (using 20 to 22 pills a day). Two weeks ago informed no pain clinic would treat me because of high dosages. Sent home for hospice two weeks ago and told they would begin the detox from methadone. Went from 150 to 140 to 130 to 125 to present dosage of 100mg of morphine and same amount of morphine.
I would like to know what symptoms and side effects will I experience from detoxing this quickly from the methadone.

That is the whole point of this opiate epidemic. It's what the government wants.

Because, taking oxycodone, which is a short acting pain medication, 6-12 times per day, is too often. The reason you had to take it so often is because it is only meant to be short acting(4 hrs) in adjunct to a long acting medication, such as methadone. If you required oxycodone more than 4-6 times per day, you needed a long acting medication, like methadone, and a reduced dosage of oxycodone. Your doctor is not a quack, that is proper pain management. Sorry if you don't agree with that.
