Hello everyone,
I have a serious predicament I'm facing. I have been taking meds, oxycontin for over 12 years. I have tried at different times, without success, to quit. I have had 20 plus surgeries/amputations and do have pain, but I need, for myself, to find other options for relief, but first I need to get off of this. I take 640 mgs per day, but I want to taper off of em, until I am done, but also evaluate any issues that may arise. i.e. lack of energy, sleep, etc. and address em, as they arise. I expect to experience some of this, but how bad will it get, if I stick to a regime of tapering off daily. Oh, any advice as to how to taper off would be wonderful too, but I need ANY advice i can get, as I have to succeed in this....too many things have been put "on hold" because of it. Please, any help from any of you who have been thru this or anything similar, would be greatly appreciated.
