Hi everyone.
I was hoping that I might be able to get help interpreting my recent blood work and some advice. I'm a 23 female, who has been eating peaty for about a year. Fit and healthy aside from a couple of things: I have bad Interstitial cystitis which is thought to be related to my being on the methadone programme/past history of drug abuse. Go to the toilet at least 3x a night and have a constant sense of urgency. I have been slowly tapering off the methadone and am down to 4mgs now, my dose was never very high (15mgs at hight of addiction), but i have been a daily user of opioids going on 5yrs now. As I go through the next and final stages of the taper i want to make sure my body is in the best state to cope with any withdrawal. The worst symptoms for me are restless legs (which prevent sleep), lethargy and fever. I am used to being in a constant state of sedation, so as my dose reduces, I find myself anxious, senses heightened and I feel everything more intense. I'm hoping someone here might have experience with coming off opiates or knowledge to give advice. My blood work is attached. Any advice would be super appreciated!
