opiate withdrawal
"Detoxed after narcotic pain mgmt for 20 years.  Was given Subutex and phenobarbitol, etc. at Detox center, and while it was hell, no sleep AT ALL for 3 weeks, and muscle spasms from hell, came out clean.  Get botox injections for occipital neuralgia every three months in neck.  Pain still vile.  15 yrs ago had cervical fusion, at C5/6, all related to the 20 plus pain cycle, car accidents, bet you know what I mean.  Again had Cervical fusion 10 months ago, now C4/5/6/7, still violent spasms.  Was put on Dilatid for surgery, and after one month on it, tapered, but needed support to get off completely.  Pain mgr. prescribed Clonidine.  Worked like a charm."
