The human body cannot survive without food and water for long periods of time. In fact, according to SurvivalTopics.com, the longest a person can go without water is 10 days--without food, it's four to six weeks. However, due to certain other variables, these numbers can vary.
I have a job that provides me with health insurance. So the doc visit would have been like $150 (USD) and the Sub would've been $385 (USD). But, the insurance will probably cover the doctor visit and they covered all but $65 (USD) of the Subox. I hope it works because it's the most viable option when compared with methadone and cold turkey. Wish me luck.
1 For patients without health insurance, cortisone injections to treat deep acne nodules or cysts typically range in cost from $25 - $100, while injections administered to the joints or other parts of the body can cost from $100 - $300 per shot, in addition to costs for the office visit. (For uninsured patients, an office visit typically costs $50 -$200, while for insured patients it typically brings a copay of $10 -$50, or coinsurance of 10%-50%.) At the Texas Hip and Knee Center in Fort Worth, TX, cortisone injections average $120 - $140.
