Default congrats!

On finding something that works that well! I might like to check this out if I could get W/C to pay for it. It sounds like the patch form of Suboxone (sp?) but I may be wrong. Suboxone has been to get people off of Methadone as well as detoxing in general from other opioids and used for pain control too.. catch was it was very expensive .. something like $700/mo as compared to $20/mo for M and not all PMs would prescribe it.

May I ask if your insurance pays for it or you pay out of pocket?

It must be wonderful to have that much relief especially if you're still working.. the latter to me is amazing anyway given all you've been thru so it's great that you're now able to sit and work in comfort, sleep w/o pain,etc!

thanks for the heads up! Just read the links you included. I get pretty good pain relief with my once daily dose of Methadone (10mg) but the GI effects really get to me. I have been on this drug over 10 years now.
