Can I take Clonodine and Advil together?? Clonodine is for methadone withdrawal; for rapid heart beat.?
My dr prescribed me Clonodine for the rapid heart beat associated with methadone withdrawal. I would like to take a larger dose of advil for some aches and pains, like 600 800mg but I'm unsure if this okay w the Clonodine. The Rx paperwork for Clonodine said to double my dose of Clonodine if I plan on taking Advil or any NSAID's. But I'm wondering if this is correct and if so, is doubling my dose accurate? Right now my regular dose is 1 2 tablet 0.1 mg in the morning and a full tablet 0.1 mg at night. I also take Requip for RLS and Wellbutrin for depression

What can I do to make methadone withdrawals easier?
I have been on methadone for 6 months, gradually decreasing my dose to get off this stuff.. I was on 5mg about 3 4 days ago, and had to stop because im going on a trip sunday. Im not sick to my stomach but my body feels warm but I am constantly freezing. The restless legs has turned into a restless entire body. Hot showers help a little but is there anything else I can do? Will this get better or worse as the days go on? If it gets any worse, how can I make traveling on a bus tolerable?I forgot to add the constant fatigue and the fact that my legs burn just walking up the stairs..

Methadone Withdrawal -- scared with no one else to get answers from?
My dr put me on methadone for pain management about 2 years ago. I started out at 5 mg total a day and he eventually got me up to 40 mg total a day . I had major hip surgery hence the methadone. So eventually, about 10 months ago we started to taper my methadone and things weren't a 'walk in the park' but for the most part things were going smoothly and he was easy to communicate with if I had any problems. All of a sudden my dr is gone this past april I had called the clinic for a refill and was told my dr was no longer practicing at the clinic. I was anxious but to work that day on establishing a new internal medicine dr in the same clinic. The office made me an appt for 30 days later may and a day before the appt canceled it. So I tried to reschedule and they decided to schedule me with a different dr this time, which was fine with me. Same thing happened again, the appt was canceled last minute. And... get this... this happened a third time in June. So this whole time my medicine wasn't being tapered... I was at a constant 4 ml. I had to go to the hospital's Patient Advocacy office to finally get an appt that wouldn't be canceled last minute. So now I'm with a dr that has sped up my taper to an incredibly uncomfortable speed. More than twice the speed of the plan w my previous dr whom left his practice. So... my question The day I picked up the my current prescription I told the receptionist that I need to talk to her, my dr, as soon as possible because I was so anxious and fearful about the current taper my dr wanted me at. So now it's 2 weeks later, she called me once and I wasn't at my phone so I'm waiting for another call. I tried for a 2nd time today And at this point I just want to see if I can handle the withdrawal myself. I feel like she invalidates how I tell her I'm feeling. When I tell her about my withdrawal symptoms, I feel like she doesn't believe me. So last Fri 17th Oct I went from 4 ml a day I had been on 4 ml a day for about 17 days. That day I realized that she probably wasn't going to call me back in any timely manner I felt like I was backed up into a corner. So the next day, Saturday the 18th I went to 2 ml a day, Sunday I went to 1 ml a day half AM, half PM and I've been on that dose since Sunday... so 2 and a half days. But tonights 'the big night'... tonight is my last dose and it will be exactly .4 .5 ml. What I m trying desperately to figure out is how bad my withdrawals will be or if they will be bad at all. The last time I went through withdrawals was a long time ago and I was at 10 mg, so I know for a fact that the withdrawals won't be nearly as bad as they were then. But I know this won't be a walk in the park by any means, I just want to be prepared and have some sense of control over what I'm going to be feeling like for the next 2 weeks or however long they last. What's even worse is my mom is leaving in 2 days for a Napa Valley vacation and will be gone for 2 weeks so I'm going to be all by myself and I can honestly say I'm scared shi less.Does anyone out there know what I'm going to be going through, symptoms wise, in the next week or 2 weeks?? Any help, information, suggestions, or piece of mind is greatly appreciated... I have absolutely no one else to talk to about this. Thanks
