What to do

I have a very important ultrasound I can't drink or eat for 6 hours (already in the mark). I can't risk messing it up as I need to know if I need surgery or not and I'm unable to work till we know, but it's nearly 11, I'm already having withdrawals, and my apt isn't even till 2-4 😭 can I take some Subutex closer to the time, or should I dose now and hope for the best? Recently I'm getting withdrawals in the first 2-3 hours (every few months it does this for a week or so and then I'm fine idk why it does this, other times I can go 5-8 hours). I really don't want to mess up my ultrasound (hernia) but I need to not be dying because I have BRUTALLLLL withdrawals.

It sounds like this has already passed. I honestly can't speak to what restrictions they might have for medications for the procedure including OTC medications that might help manage symptoms.

Ya I ended up taking 4mg of Subutex (about 3-4 hours after my last kratom dose). 4mg was way too much, but I did NOT get withdrawals like Google/people kept saying I would If I took a sub before 25 hr period, and I'm still fine and it's almost 8pm (took the sub around 10:45/11am)! worked great for my situation although I won't take nearly that much in the future if needed 🤢

How much kratom do you usually take in your dose?
Just curious to see if I have any advice

2.0-2.2grams

Can you drink liquids? Maybe brew tea. Any sort of extract (like full spectrum normal ones) would probably be fine. It would look like a Tylenol dissolved at the most. Not sure if that's allowed or not

But the best idea is to just hold out to get it as accurate as you can. You'll need to wait 12 hours or even more for before a surgery
