Yep that's what they got me on now in the hospital in trying to be the 'cool doctors'. They asked me first "hey uh do you smoke or use canabis outside the hospital?" I told them not regularly, so they asked if I'd be open to marinol since they lacked any weed or edibles available. I said yeah at least to say I've tried it.
It's helped alot with anxiety and Abit with my pain and caused a calming effect without being 'high' or stoned feeling.
I'm also getting 20mgs an hour of ketamine.. I think they're going to increase it to 25mgs today or tomorrow but I could be wrong.
I still get IV and oral Dilaudid.
Thought the combo in my most recent hospital admission was interesting and of note to discuss. You don't hear of marinol being prescribed much these days with medicinal and recreational marijuana so readily available nowadays but for me it seems to help a lot. World's first 'syncan' lol still being prescribed 25 years later.
The ketamine I get is for pain and hopefully should reset my opioid receptors so my methadone (130mg/day) will work better and so will the Dilaudid requiring a smaller dose which while getting the ketamine had been the case. They also are doing a trough levels right before I get my methadone in the morning and then at peak approx 4 hours after I've got it to see if my body rapidly matabolises it so they can convince my methadone clinic to break my dose up into two dosings a day rather than the typical one. (3times a day would be most ideal as Ive had it like that before but we're working with what we got and 2 times is better than once a day so..) my clinic is pretty chill and laid back so they likely won't have an issue doing it so long as there's no legal reason standing in their way so that's cool and should help me a lot with deal with my chronic pain. I'm definitely going to seek out marinol or a medicinal marijuana card if I can't get marinol.
What do y'all think.

do you live in the hospital now full time?
2021-12-01 at 6:30 PM UTC
No, but I've been in and out and tend to have long stints of admissions. Usually a month or more at a time.

Why are u on 130mg of methadone and getting dillies? Did you tell them you're allergic to morphine or something? Figured they would give you eschelon/kadians for pain instead of meds that are useless in combination with others
Also, who has a bigger cock §m£ÂgØL or POC?

You can still punch thru methadone with the right doses. I was on 149mg for a couple years and i was still routinely getting really fucked up

I did not tell them I'm allergic to anything other than the shit I am allergic to (penicillin and epogen). They always just give Dilaudid since it seems to work better for opioid dependent people like me and probably looks better on paper to write 12mgs Dilaudid/prn3hours than 60mgs oxycodone/prn6hours. IDK. I'm at Johns Hopkins hospital so you'd have to ask the chronic pain team and substance abuse team which works closely together with me and they're really good compared to most hospitals about why Dilaudid is their preference over high mgs of other opioids.

I think the Dilaudid works better imo especially at what they consider equivalency is.

I just asked a student doc and she said they do usually use oxycodone and morphine but at way lower doses comparatively.

Apparently they like to use Dilaudid right after surgery for it's quick half life in the event of issues which I suspected why they use it a lot in L&D. Also in PCAs they see better pain control. It is a pretty potent opioid I'm the right dose.
