I've been taking Methadone (3 x 10mg daily) since November 2003. I also take Topamax (2 x 150mg daily) to help with the pain. Methadone is the first medication that has given me any real pain relief. I was incredibly tired the first 2-3 weeks after starting on it, until I got used to it. Other than that, I've had no other side effects.
