Suboxone 2/3/2011 to 6/10/2015, with a very slow taper beginning 01/02/2013

Suboxone 1/25/2018 to 7/15/2020, with a break 9/16/2019 to 10/5/2019 for pacemaker placement -- a one-day procedure became a 6-day hospital stay in my case due to pneumothorax twice.  I was in debilitating pain most of the time since no anesthesiologist was involved who understood that Suboxone patients have to be treated very differently to get adequate analgesia.
