"methadone- 60-70mg daily for chronic pain
flexeril- 50-60mg daily"

I told my husband about these two drugs and he said it is no wonder they have warped thinking. Normal daily dose of flexeril is 10 mg and it puts me out when I take it. (occasionally when prescribed) My husband said a normal person would be unconscious with that amount. Methadone is for junkies. It is used to get people off narcotics. Taking them together is insane. This person is an addict with no desire to get clean.

This all illustrates another difference between us and them.

They demand that the world conform to what they want, while we try to adjust to the world the way it actually is.

Specifically heroin, right?

Although the primary use for methadone is to move people away from heroin addiction, it is also perscribed for intense pain, but generally for terminal or hospice patients in leiu of morphine.

You are correct. See my reply # 164. 60-70 mgs of methadone would make a straight person passout (after getting violently ill), and be residually high for a few days, after about a 24hr sleep.

Flexeril is also a muscle relaxer, used to quell muscle spasms in the back. THIS much could stop your heart!
