About 3 years ago I starting having strange symptoms in my legs, circulation. I first noticed it when I was driving an hour one way to work and the my legs would ache so bad…Almost to the point where I couldnt drive. I bought a new car b/c I thought the car and the way it “sat” was causing circulation problems? Over time It just got worse. Finally, I broke down and went to the dr. They ran tests, one being for rheumatoid arthritis. They all came back negative.

I have tried to exercise to try and help the circulation, but the pain is so severe the next day that I dont want to. I go through ibuprophen like candy. I cant even think about wearing heels, not even for an hour b/c my legs will hurt all the way to my hips. Even different flats makes them hurt in different ways. Its really strange. I am only 35 years old, 130lbs. I do eat bananas and take daily vitamins.

Ive been taking 16 mg of suboxone for 2 years now after a 17 year addiction to pain killers. I know it has a remarkably long half life. I have to have surgery next month and need to be able to take the narcotics for a short while while in the hospital and at home. I chose relief from the disease of addiction rather than the pain of my rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Here is my dilemma, i stopped taking it cold turkey exactly one week ago and have absolutely NO withdrawal symptoms. Any body know how long for it takes to get out of my system?
