From a mutual friend, apparently the withdrawals were severe. He was actually admitted to a recovery place with his mom's help (that was $45k for a month!). Fentanyl is stored in fat cells apparently. It takes a long time to leave the system. So he was hospitalized because his potassium levels dropped to a dangerous place.

I'm not sure of the price tag. But i had another friend who was told to go to another hospital when his wife's pregnancy took a bad turn. They spent two weeks and it was several hundred thousand. The insurance said, just beg the hospital to reduce it? It was ridiculous. I'm just sure my friend won't leave with that covered. Not the hospitals responsibility for sure but it's outrageous the cost and prevents people from seeking help.
