I am good getting ready for bed.. its 130am here.. i am dropping more mgs in my taper tommorrow... I feel like I have been tapering FOREVER.... started 7 weeks ago... had to go back to taking it as directed twice for pain in the 7 weeks.. so each time I had to start over basically.. I would go CT if I could take off work..
You are the one on the SUb coming off of high doses of MS contin right?? I have read your posts and followed your story.. I have read that tapering down first helps the Sub work if you are on high doses.. i think methodone patients have to taper past 60mgs before they can switch.. talk to your doc.. something has to be able to be done...

it is very addicting... even before I posted the first time i sat and just read post after post for like 12 hours.. building the courage.. nights like tonight when i am home alone without my hubby I just sit and chat with whomever needs to talk..
8 days is awesome... keep it up.. how are you feeling??

I can't believe it but I feel great! It makes no sense to me-  I haven't been having any w/d's othe than not getting much sleep. I have been using for 3 years but very small doses. I could go months just taking 1/2 a vic a day and at the most 2. It was more of a mental addiction I think. Maybe that's why I am not hurting. Oh yeah, the ringing in the ears- it's still there. Not as loud though.
