One would really not expect the withdrawal to still be there at 25 days unless someone was still taking the methadone in some form for most of the that period of time. Someone might limit their food intake due to being sick from withdrawal and the change in appetite could continue long after the withdrawal was gone and this would affect many things. There can be electrolyte or malnutrition problems. THese need to be corrected. And it could also be a coincidence and treatment of the atrial abnormality should be done in any case.
