Ed-
Yes, I believe that she has gone to new clinics. The only prob is I really think she is addicted now to the methadone. I think she likes being sedated, and sedation leads to depression I think. She hasn't been able to get over her mom dying in 1997..and that has caused her some depression as well (or at least she regards it as being a factor).
I just think that the clinics here in our area are out for $$$. I don't understand how they haven't maintained her care the way they should. Not only that, but they continually up her dose, and they also have it fixed to where she only has to go once a week, so she gets to keep her meds at home with her.
I just think there is something fishy about it. I think substituting one addiction for another and telling a person you will help them (but charge them lots and lots of $$) is wrong.
I wonder what they use the income towards....
