I'm new to this site...and new to Suboxone withdrawals, too! I've been off of them since April 19th and WAS in an inpatient rehab for three weeks. I started to realize about 3 weeks in that something was SERIOUSLY strange with my system. Asked to have my blood pressure tested. It swings between 145/74 to 178/110. The rehabs solution was to ask ME what I wanted to do. I was SO inspired, I left immediately and came home to get better medical attention. I am SOLID in my program and mentally and emotionally pretty stable, considering I had 2 hours sleep and was eating about 600 calories a day.
I'm taking the lowest dosage of clonodine, which lowers it but no where NEAR normal.
Anyone have some info on Suboxone and high BP?? I was on 4 mgs a day for over 3 years for "pain maintenance' which I understand is outrageous. Subs are used for SHORT periods of time now...I've had doctors sign off on the 'maintenance' for WAY too long.
This is a forum for recovery from addiction through the 12 Steps of NA.
If you want experience, strength and hope on that topic, I'll offer it.
I don't give medical advice.
