THC/Methadone

Did anyone continue with medical marijuana after starting Methadone?

I currently is CBN/CBD gummies to help with my insomnia. Doesn’t do anything for my RLS (worsen nor relieve).

The ones I have, have a small amount of THC in them. I know it is advised to not drink or use marijuana while on Methadone but 2.5mg is way different than the higher doses for severe pain or opiate withdrawals.

Methadone availability

Hi everyone. I had my first visit with a neurologist listed by the RLS foundation. It was a video visit and it went very well. It felt good to talk to someone who understands this terrible disease.

I’ve been on oxycodone IR 2.5mg four times a day for quite some time. It kind of works but wears off rather quickly. I have symptoms 24/7.

He think Methadone will be a good fit for me. Since it was a video visit, he can’t prescribe my meds yet. His office squeezed me in tomorrow. It’s about a 3 hour drive from my house but worth it.

If we choose to go the Methadone route, I’m curious about the availability of it at my pharmacy. I use CVS for my prescriptions. Do any of the others taking methadone also use CVS? Do they give you a difficult time when you first had the prescription sent there?

I haven’t called and asked them yet. I don’t want them to know my business until they have to. I already feel judged by them for the oxycodone so I thought I would ask here first for others experience.
