I constantly crave chocolate, though, and I sometimes buy 10 Reese's Buttercups at a time, gulping them down--not even tasting them. Of course, I get serious abdominal pains due to the constipation which are a side effect of the methodone, and I take even more of the medication to quell the pain...
It has been two weeks since I stopped eating chocolate and, surprise, surprise! My "pain" has decreased dramatically!
