My husband had back surgery, theu put him on a Fentyal patch 50mg,norco 2 tabs every 6 hours, Flexril every 8 hours and oxycotin 30 every 8 hours. The script for the Oxycotin was written wrong when I brought him home from the hospital so we decide to see if we could do without it, and we did. He thinking was so impaired and we talked to the doctor about getting him off the Fentyal so he gave me 25 mg patches and 12.5 patches,I am trying to reduce his dose but 5 to 6 hours after I change the patch, he gets extremely depressed aches all very, sick to his stomach with extreme cramping and sweating but freezing. What can I do, I am trying to work and take care of him. Is it best to go cold turkey, any suggestions? Liz
