Tapering from methadone

I have been on methadone for 1 1/2 at 120 mg I have been tapering since December 2016. Today I am at 14mg and I go down 2mg every Tuesday. So far it it was going pretty smoothly once I hit 14 mg it's gotten rough nausea muscle ache and pains fatigue appetite has deacresed. I am suppose to be at 6mg July 4 so July 3 will be my last dose I plan on stopping the Tuesday I go down to 6mg. I was wondering if there is anything to help ease the with drawl symptoms I still have to work through all this to support myself. It's been rough I've stayed strong and I was just wondering if there is anything herbal home remedies or my doctor do to help ease the with drawl symptoms as my dose gets lower and when I completely stop?
