Hi Carrie, first of all I just wanted to say I'm sorry you are in this situation. I hope your fiancé appreciates how supportive you are. I think it's great that he's trying to get off the opiates...it's not easy at all. Going through withdrawals is a horrible experience....but it looks like he's trying. I can see why he looks up to his cousin....he probably thinks his cousin knows a lot about this....maybe his cousin has gone thru it too. Not sure how strong his cousins is to not give him pills when he's suffering through.....it takes a very stubborn, strong willed person to not give in when he's begging for it. That might be what's happening here....and why he pushed the date forward a little.
Well I just wanted to send a virtual (((hug)))) to you and prayers that fiancé can push through this and get to the other side!
Oh fandy you just gave me a good laugh! Thank you!

If I remember correctly it was an old SNL skit, I can't find it or I would post it...Steve Martin perhaps?
At Home Surgery...quite equal to At Home Detox. although it's tongue in check humor, I really think his condition needs a doctor's supervision for safety. Can his cousin administer a defibrillator if needed? can he resuscitate him? can he keep him breathing? can he keep him from having a seizure that affects his brain function? I doubt it, it takes an entire TEAM of Emergency Medicine specialists to manage this type of patient. You may wind up with a sober vegetable.....it is foolish to NOT go to a physician. Obviously $$ is not a problem....he would probably be safer and sober faster with a real inpatient detox...but is he serious?
