Hi Q
I'm sure my pdoc would be pretty pissed about my taking anything he doesn't understand - I mentioned tiapentine (sp?) to him and he just gave me a 'not for discussion' look.
He also refused to consider buprenorphine - said he doesn't want to get involved in prescibing it - of course, this was before the whole opiate fiasco, which makes it moot anyway.I do have a question about ordering Kratom though. I notice it comes in many forms. I see it powdered in capsules, crushed leaf. Then there's Kratom Premium Commercial as well as Kratom Thai Green Vein powder... there's even resin pies. Kratom 15x standardized extract
They even offer a sample pack: wt. 0.7 oz for $14.95
The sample pack includes the following items:
2 Grams - 15x Standardized Extract
7 Grams - Premium Commercial Powder
7 Grams - Thai Green Vein Powder
Qty 5 - Premium Commercial Capsules
all this is from the site: http://kratomherbs.com/The http://www.iamshaman.com site offers Premium Leaf, Red Vein leaf, standardizes 10x extract, 15x extract, super powder, new guiea 20x extract, resin pies and resin extract
The mind boggles!!! LOL
what do you recommend trying?
thanks
namaste,

There are no standard tests that would identify it as yet and none likely to be in the near future. There is little they could do about it even if you were to test positive for mitragynine for some reason since it is not a controlled substance in the US according to Erowid and other sources: http://www.erowid.org/plants/kratom/kratom_law.shtml.

I'm not sure about long-term efficiency of either Kratom and oxytocin spray, and the same goes for hydrocodone, but I guess you may have more self-esteem to help you cope better when you are back in work in any case?
