I'm scheduled next week for a colonoscopy and the anesthesiologist said they would only just administer Propofol via IV.  I have an irrational fear of surgery and anesthetics.

Does anyone have experience with Propofol?  My doctor said it's okay to take my normal meds (I'm prescribed Addies 2x a day), and I'm on the Vivitrol injection (Naltrexone) that blocks all opiates (he says that's OK too).  I also take cl0nz/v@lz at night for insomnia (self-prescribed following Sub withdrawals), but I haven't disclosed that yet to my doctor.  I probably should right?  I'm nervous that any build up of benz will have an adverse effect on the Propofol.

It would be helpful if anyone has undergone surgery with Propofol as a current or recovering addict.  I have a fear of having a high tolerance or not being able to wake up from the Propofol.  Everyone says this is such an easy procedure, but I'm still nervous as hell.

 
@Clarissahey, how did this go for you? I hope your experience was like 99% of most people which is the prep is really the worst part! 

I do have a friend in methodone treatment and we have often talked about "what if I need _________ done, how do I handle the pain?" 

So this caught my attention, although a little bit late! 

 
It's a little late, but I appreciate your response anyway.  So thank you for taking the time to ask.

I ended up crying the whole time (I have an irrational deathly fear of anesthesia), so they put me out SUPER quick.  Then I woke up 18 mins later fine, but still crying because after all that they didn't find anything.

I'm not familiar with the chemical makeup of methadone, but does it have any nalaxone or opiate receptor blockers?  I've been on Suboxone and I know you can break the ceiling with a high enough dose of pain meds.  But with Vivitrol (Naltrexone) it completely GLUES your opiate receptors so nothing can break through and there's nothing you can do about it unless you can "un-glue" the blocker.  You may need a brain surgeon or something for that level of blockage.  The ingredient in Suboxone, nalaxone, is only a partial blocker which means you can still have pain meds in a surgery (don't quote me on that, but that's just my opinion for being on them for nearly a decade).  The only reason why nalaxone is in Suboxone is to prevent IV usage.

I don't know much about methadone except that they gave it to me in the hospital for detox twice and I was high as a kite.  I saw absolutely no treatment or recovery value in it.  One time I was so high I vomited.  That level of high is comparable to an H injection.  (Then again, hospitals don't really know how to detox patients and private insurance doesn't cover real rehab).

  7. F @ Frickinwut: Real bummed about mgm/7oh getting schedule 1’d. Imagine if the US actually researched those alkaloids and found pain relief without crazy death risk. Also I’d really love to find some Pynazolam lol sorry i digress
  8. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: Does anyone know what’s happening after the 5th with óñłïñè mářkètz?? 7 and mgm is such a good thing to keep around on those waiting days and delays.

  11. PlanetExpress @ PlanetExpress: @brofessormd this isn't even the first time we've seen this whole setup go through this mess. There seems to be some sort of pattern here; every time stuff gets rocky with shipments, missed deliveries, or a pile of refund requests, it always cycles back around. Honestly, watching this routine play out since 2021 has been wild. Just something to keep in mind when making plans.
  12. P @ piratepenguin: So they are pink hello kittys. Ya I'll test but probably won't take them at all
  13. DutchRCshop @ DutchRCshop: @piratepenguin Dont take without testing! Probably amfetamine or XTC. Small chance its something else but still, how tf you get random pills in the mail lol
  14. moai @ moai: @piratepenguin probably xtc or similar but don’t take it without testing it. I would definitely test them, could really be anything.
  15. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: had “confirmed” this. Just this morning someone claimed “Just so you guys know, there is someone else that's taking over and is going to take care of all that was left behind. But I would be patient please“. I would take this all with a grain of salt though, anything is possible, and I don’t want to be spreading rumors
  16. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @CalFresh @brofessormd @intrnt Yes time will tell, I do believe the timing was a little sus as well, people in his signal group were mentioning heart failure, and that people closer to him had to confirmed this
  17. P @ piratepenguin: Just got some random cat head shaped pink pills at the post. I didn't order. Pink cat head with two plugs on the other side. Anyone know what they are?
  18. B @ brofessormd: Slightly sus that Rhodi pastebin was taken down at the exact same time of his friends announcement of his death 🤔
  19. I @ intrnt: @CalFresh time will tell, it's always easy for a Vendor to exit and come by with a new handle.
  20. CalFresh @ CalFresh: @st1ckyf1ng4z what happened to Rhodium?
