I know how expensive Suboxone can be, especially when one has no health insurance (i am assuming).
I found a bit of info for you regarding this:
Suboxone Assisted Treatment, a subsidiary of Medical Assisted Treatment of America caters mainly to the present and future medication—assisted treatment patients, family members, friends and other medical personnel that may need information and assistance. www.SuboxoneAssistedTreatment.org
if you haven't already, i urge you to utilize the resources on this website http://www.suboxone.com/
there are resources there about the drug, where you can get at a reduced cost , and just general info. Many times the pharmaceutical companies that are manufacturing the higher drugs do have grants.etc for these types of situations whee you can purchase them directly the company at a much reduced price. I'm sure you have all this info, just in case.
I'm quite sure you have all this info, but just thought i would throw it out there just in case. My apologies for the rambling, its almost 3am and for once, I'm tired lol.
Keep us posted, and keep in mind that getting off this drug is considered to be the same as coming off Heroin.
When I was born, I cried and the world rejoiced. Now i wanna live my life so that when I die, the world cries and I rejoice

Hey Viv,
I am so glad to see your post. You and your family have been on my mind all week. I am sorry you are having to go through all of this and I know how much it sucks. Just wondering...does Texas not have a state insurance for people that cant afford it? I know MA has one called MassHealth and without it I know Dan would still be using. He is doing Methadone but it is a daily thing where he has to go to a clinic and get it everyday, but when he comes off of it (a year or so) he will be doing the seboxin. Have the doctors said how long your son would be taking it? If at all possiable stay in close contact with the doctors that are prescribing it. Did you guys decide against long term rehab? Please keep us posted. I worry about you, and your famil a lot. You are in my prayers always. Hugs. Michelle

You need to get out and socialize outside of the family so that you can have a melt down or whatever.......................(((((((((((((luv you !! )))))))))))))))
- Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose. Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email. I'll answer it as soon as possible.
- Total Lost: 139 lbs
- Current Weight: 263
- As of 11-10-13 I have had weight gain. Not happy about that.
- RNY: 10-16-07 = 338: Highest weight: 350+ Lowest Weight: 199
I am getting away for a little while about every other day. Maybe for a hour or so. I am doing OK I guess. I have had lots of "meltdowns" since this happened. But I am sure it will get better. Sure can't get much worse.

I hadn't seen you on FB, so I had come over here to see if anyone had heard from you...you and your family have been weighing heavily on my mind this week. I'm glad that you are starting to feel a little "better" about all that is going on. I've been thinking about you guys and keeping you in my prayers!
Hugs, Mari
