I’m interested in the ANR medical detox treatment.  In 2017, April 30th, I had a nasty accident that broke my right hip, right femur in four places, needed total right knee replacement, and I am working on having all my broken teeth replaced with implants ( full upper &amp; lower).   This has been a very, very slow recovery,  and due to multiple surgeries to put me back together again, my ortho surgeon, knee surgeon, dental implant doctor and more whom I cannot remember all the names of, prescribed pretty high doses of OxyContin for long term pain.  I have since been seeing a psychiatrist, who it me on Zubsolv to wean me off the OxyContin that was initially prescribed to me at 4 tablets every 4-6 hours.  I had bariatric surgery in 2004, and my weight problem, which began about 6 months after another psychiatrist had prescribed Zyprexa for me, resulted in a huge weight gain.  Loved the way Zyprexa helped me sleep deeply, but I gained enough wait on that drug that I went from Approx. 150 lbs (I’m 5-6” tall) to a top weight of, at its highest 277 lbs. The psychiatrist did not think Zyprexa caused that much weight gain, but I did. I quit the Zyprexa after 3 yrs, and 5 or 6months after quitting it, my excess weight just about fell off over the next year.  I’ve been back down to a more normal weight every since; not changing my earring habits in any way.  I have since heard of others who gained massive amounts of weight while taking Zyprexa.  The surgeon who performed my bariatric surgery warned me I might need to take either liquid forms of any drugs I needed, or take them sublingually.  Any drug I am or was prescribed, in following the bariatric surgeon’s advice,  I would take in somewhat higher doses (such as the OxyContin, aspirin, vitamins, etc) to make up for loss of drug effectiveness I hadn’t experienced before the bariatric surgery.  Anyway,  my psychiatrist now (since 2015) prescribed me Zunsolv to replace the pain meds &amp; still give me some relief of ongoing pain from all my post-2017 accident, and in the past 2 months, I’ve been able at last to get around some without my medical Walker.  Freedom at last!  Except that I ran out of the Zubsolv this month when I had to change my psychiatrist appointment, and within 24 hours I felt I was coming down with a cold or allergies, my nose we ran nonastip!  Then my bowels and bladder took on a life of their own and I was changing underclothes about every half hour.  Then I started vomiting, as well!  I looked up this cluster of symptoms and learned this mess I was in could be the onset of withdrawal from not having anymore opiogiods in my syatem.  I was abasolutely miserable and missed the Zubasolv I’d been taking.  So for now, I’m back taking opioids, and all those symptoms have cleared up, but this all seems to be telling me I’ve become opioid-addicted.  I’ll see my psychiatrist on Wednesday, and will tell him of my physical symptoms without the opioids or the Zubsolv in my system, and beg him necessary, to let me go into the hospital for (what?  36?  48 hours?) to get over what sure seems to be withdrawal.  I never want to see opioids of any measure ever again, after all this.  Thanks for reading my prolific message.  I live in 
Tennessee with my husband of 40 years (I’m 68).  We are retired so a trip to Florida wouldn’t be a big issue, assuming my C
Igna Medicare ,Advantage plan can covered some of the expenses of this procedure, if it’s really high dollar (since we’’re both on Medicare &amp; no longer working
Hope we can work this out somehow.

Thanks,
