Pain
"I was just put on methadone less than a week ago for severe pain related to a recent, failed back surgery. I have degenerative disc disease and spinal stenosis. I need to have fusion surgery, but am not ready for surgery again just yet.  The methadone has been great.  I can sit with very little or no pain at all.  I still use percocet as needed for breakthrough pain.  The methadone is allowing me to push the surgery off a few more months so I&#039;m not bedridden all summer.  I can still function at work and be there for my kids without being doped up.  Definitely recommend it."
