if you have medical conditions we are not really able to give you advise on how you should quit. We can support you on your decisions and listen to your concern, but we are not qualified to tell you whats safe and not safe for someone with medical conditions as yourself. I am sorry, someone else might come along and give you there advise, just remember, they just like me and you are addicts, not doctors :)

Hey dude...well I just did a slow 8 1/2 mo taper off methadone I went from 150 to 0
and if I had to do it over I think I would jump off at 5mg  tapering below that just puts you in a constant state of withdrawal ...I went 1 mg a week for the last 10mg and once below
7 mg it got prity ruff...you sorta go thew 4 days of withdrawals ever time you drop a mg
hence 6 weeks of withdrawals....my final withdrawal was no diferent then tapering
below 5mg just lasted longer like 8 days instead of 4 ...if you insist on tapering below
5 your going to want to break your 10mg pills in 1/2 then powder them so you can cut them into a line....then break the line into 5 parts....take one part out each week
you taper...if your at 10mg do the same thing just take the 1/2 pill plus 4/5 of the other 1/2 pill till your down to 5...like I said if I had to do it over I would highly recommend jumping off at 5mg ...if you need more info just message me and we can go into more detal...good luck and god bless...Gnarly
