subutex mommys
Hello fellow mothers out there. Well subutex is a medication that is so new which makes it so frustrating for moms like me who find few people to relate to. My story: I have a girl 5 in oct. my chunky son 2 in nov. this is my third will be due feb 4 , 2016. After my son, i fell into a severe postpartum depression, i had a infected csection which bursted open as i bled entirely my queen size bed while i breast fed my newborn, was told i was going to have a heart attack, pulmonary embolism or stroke at any time if i didnt start my coumadin, i was very alone, my husband worked in los angeles and stayed there to work while i live in central valley ca. I was in severe pain from my harsh birth. None of those are excuses, but reasons why i found a way to cope. So i fell into opioid addiction, you know, vicodin, tramadols, you name it. So i fell into that misery for about 1 yr. here came 2015 & I got help. I couldnt do it any more!! I found a great doctor who really did want to help for my own best interest. He passed away as soon as my next visit was due, he was going to show me how to taper off this medicine once i was ready. Found a new dr. Horrible dr. He is a cannibis/internal med dr.
I Told him on my first visit i want to taper off. He said, people like me will most definitely go back to their old ways and even worse so theres no way I will tell you how to do it. Now im stuck cause im almost ten weeks and i feel like im letting my angel baby down. I want to breast feed my baby, i want to be clear minded, this medicine makes me very sleepy. He wants me to take a higher dose and i take 8mg every night. Ive been on it 6months and i feel SO READY TO BE FREE!! I know i have the mind power to win my temptations! I have too much to live for! I missed so much precious time from my newborn boy because of my health & addiction, & i REFUSE to loose time again. Im enjoying every single moment of life & my kids!! I love them GREATLY. Is there any mommys out there who in my same position or have tapered off subutex/suboxone already? How was it? Any withdrawal? Was it successful? Hows the baby?? How did you do it? & how are you doing now that you are off of it? Please any info on your personal story will help greatly. Anything will help!
