Hold on Blah. You are the reason I first posted my experience on this board in hopes of helping others. Please be patient. Does your GP know what you're going through? If so, call him and explain that you need help in finding a doctor willing to try this. Do you have any opiate addiction history? If so perhaps an addiction specialist could help or your GP could prescribe this after an 8 hour course in opiate addiction maintainance. Go to the emergency room and ask them to brainstorm with your Pdoc and GP and come up with a referral too someone who is willing to try it. I agree that if you are feeling this close to bottoming out you should get to an emergency room asap. Be calm. Explaine what you have told us and ask them to please try this even for a few days under watch. This will pass but not if you're not here. What have you got to lose. Please. Go to the emergency room now.I am told that Dr Bodkin At McClean Hospital in Boston will take a call from your doctor to explain his research with Buprenorphine. Would your Pdoc be willing to call him? Ask!!! You must keep trying!Bee.
