What is the truth behind Methadone, regarding my husband?

ADDICTION NEWS 11 Comments »

Is methadone a drug that can affect your personality in a negative way? My husband is on 100mg a day for almost 3 years. He was addicted to pain pills at one time and now this. He is irresponsible and selfish. I believe that this is causing a lot of strain on our marriage. He says that the methadone does nothing but helps him from going into withdrawals and there is no problem with being on it for the rest of his life. Is this true and am I over reacting?

Need to know a little about making crystal meth?

DRUG ADDICTION REHAB 3 Comments »

So i’m doing a project for a class for a math class and i’m explaining control theory using a common exothermic reaction. The teacher is young though and part of the grade is creativity…. the actual reaction itself doesn’t matter, but a giggle will help the grade.

The overall point is, knowing something about a reaction, i can design a controller which will control a cooling jacket and keep the temperature steady, so the stuff doesn’t blow up.

I don’t want an ingredient list, but can i treat this as a “single input” type of reaction?

Basically, imagine reacting 2 chemicals, but you premix at a temperature they won’t react at………then when you throw them into the reactor….they form a “single input” into the reactor.

If this doesn’t work, any other suggestions would be helpful….doesn’t have to be drug related, just something that could get a chuckle.
Hah, i finished experimenting years ago……just linear algebra is killing me…..i need something to boost the grade.

NO ingredients. Just basically is it a multi step or single step. I don’t wanna write it and have the prof mark down i was wrong.

What does diffuse fatty liver change mean ?

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION 1 Comment »

I have not been well since January. I had an Ultrasound then and it read that I had a fatty liver. To make a long story short, I had a CT with and without contrast done (for kidneys-I have kidney stones) and I ended up having my gallbladder taken out a couple of weeks ago due to large gallstones. Well, I have a copy of my report from the CT scan and it was compared to a previous CT and it read that I have diffuss fatty liver change. What does this mean ? Should I be concerned ? Is this the beginning of Cirrhosis ? Is this something that can end up killing me ? What should I expect next as far as testing is concerned ? I do not drink alcohol nor am I obese. I am going back in four weeks to see my Primary care physician and just wanted some input about this prior to that appointment. Thank you.
