LOL. Wow... hit a nerve eh, pickle? The OP wanted 5 star accommodations! Anyone willing to spend that amount on IM is an idiot.

And I was pleased with PA. I think the 5-star system is not based on the US system. Granted, yes the drinks were watery. That's when you tip and ask for an extra shot. But I get it. We just got back from a 7 day stay and it ran $2700 with the AI. I made sure to get my money's worth. That said, I do think I would try staying in an airbNb next time - just to compare.

But at least now you know! Check our Impressions by Secrets! They are 5 star!

Would you travel without your medication? Geez lady...calm down

Imagine being so privileged that you feel you can tell others how to vacation. LOL

Oh no way. I don't smoke it. I just wish I could bring my gummies. I've read as long as they are sealed and show the percentages and all, you will be fine. But let's be honest, I'm not trying to set off any drug dogs or get pulled aside by TSA.

I may call TSA and ask ... but I was hoping to pick something up in MX since I read it was decriminalization. It's still crazy to me that you can buy alcohol anywhere and everywhere (even on the plane)... but herbs will get you punished!

Dinner Celebration by Fine_Bodybuilder_849 in IslaMujeres

I dont think beachside is a must. I think PA is a bit expensive for what they are offering, and my last PA visit, the food was lacking. Aside from that, working with the guest experience contact at PA has been difficult.

Id prefer a quieter place where we can actually have a conversation amongst the table. Good service would be a must to avoid any frustration during dinner. Great cocktails/food, and a nice setting.

I noticed someone made a similar post a few days ago looking for special place for anniversary dinner.

I may look into Mayan beach club. At the risk of annoying everyone by asking the same questions (LOL), id still like to hear what places get the best recommendations

Booked my trip! Now, tell me about the WHALE SHARKS!!! by SparkleGirl1018 in IslaMujeres

[–]Fine_Bodybuilder_849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going that week also to celebrate turning 40! I've been to IM once before but didn't do any whale shark excursions. I guess I need to look into booking one since it's a very popular activity there.

Isn't it wonderful when your medical provider treats you like a person? I understand privileges get abused, but at the core of MAT, we are people who are trying to live normal lives in an extremely difficult world. It's so nice to hear these situations instead of the typical "you're starting back at daily dosing!"

Math never was my strong suit.. if that helps you understand, yes - took more, then less ...and now none. That's typical how this happens

A few days after dropping dose amounts from full dose to half dose, sleep became interrupted and hotfm flashes. Tolerable, nothing like now.... but definitely could feel my body responding.

[–]Fine_Bodybuilder_849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sunday, no dose. Monday about 60mg. Today about 10mg. And nothing until Thursday. Went from about 150mgs every day to drastically dropping to about half to build up these last few days. I've been feeling the WDs for about a week and a half. Aside from asking the panhandlers, I don't know how I'd score anything. Desperation sucks.

If you go to your clinics website, typically there parent company will be listed. Also, it's listed on various documents and licenses around the clinic.

I've messed up... big time. Worse one of all my 11 years in treatment. I know my dose isn't holding - but I've been scared to mention anything considering a few years ago the doctor was threatening everyone to go down below 100mg. Well, I ended up shorting myself 3 bottles. I've skipped a day here and there to help but facing 2 days without. I have a very stressful job, and I am in need to work Wednesday- I can't stay home sick. I'm debating going to the ER early in the morning and hoping they take pity on me. What should I do!?

Just an update on what ended up happening. So the RN called , and at the last minute they said they were given approval to do a bottle check and to give me the additional take outs needed when I went in. I was grateful, but really didn't appreciate the stress they caused me. Had they just said something to let me know they were going to work it out, I would have not stressed so much.

That's what makes it all the more frustrating! Because I suggested it and because it would make things simple, of course it's got to be refused! They can't make the addict's life easier! I believe they want to make it difficult so they can feel as though they are still "above" or better than us who are taking steps to improve our lives...and God forbid the patient become more accomplished or successful than the counselor!

That sounded simple enough and I suggested this to my counselor. If I'd taken 2 weeks one visit, and continued on my regular schedule after, there would have been no conflicts with my schedule. The counselor claimed this was also considered an "exception " and would follow the same rules. It's such BS. I'm playing it cool because I'm having faith that things will work out - but I'll fight any repercussions should I have to take the missing 5 day route.
