My Name is Anthony.

I am a 31 year old male (on opiates since 15) who had been forced into about three medically supervised opiate detox programs all using naltrexone while I was conscious. I relapsed the day I walked out of each program.

Then one day, I decided I was ready to get clean. Knowing how horrible most programs were I decided to do some research on my own. That’s when I discovered Texas Opiate Detoxifications Specialists' method of Anesthesia Assisted Rapid Opiate Detoxification. Not only was this the easiest method out of the four detox programs (and also one of the cheapest) but it was the only one which treated me like a normal human and not a worthless piece of trash. I actually flew in on a Tuesday and checked into the hospital where I met Greg, a great guy who helped me all the way through and a doctor who checked me in, took a blood sample, and gave me an opiate to keep me from going into withdrawal. That night I met with the anesthesiologist who took the time to tell me exactly what I was to expect the following day. I came to after the procedure feeling not so bad and I actually got 5 hours of sleep that night (after the detox). The next morning I was discharged and on my way.

This is the method I recommend to all my friends trying to kick. And I always stress the naltrexone pellet option. I guess knowing how easy it is to relapse, I kind of think of it as a cheap insurance policy on your investment with Pacific Coast and your effort to keep clean. The implant really helped me and I know if I hadn’t chosen the pellet, I would have relapsed within days. For me, having 8 months clean really helped me get my act together. Today, I am so thankful for finding this humane method of detox. I do not think this is a quick fix for my problem with opiate addiction and realize I will battle this addiction for the rest of my life. But it is Texas Opiate Detox, and the pellet, I have to thank for so much help and success so that to this day I am still clean.

Anyway, this is my story and I thank the people at Texas Opiate Detoxification for helping me get my life back.
