Fentanyl withdrawal

Forgot to change my fentanyl patches & now I've gone into withdrawal till they kick back in again.
I'm on 112mg every 3days & I've been on them 3yrs.
The worse symptom is my restless arm's. Any suggestions to ease it?

when were you supposed to change it & when did you actually do it?  

I've heard it usually takes 3-8 hours for a patch to kick in, but I've personally had it take up to 16 hours for a new patch to kick in once withdrawals start.  I am unable to take anything for withdrawals as I'm pregnant, but have heard that the RLS & restless arms are usually the worst.... for me it's the pain, fevers, RLS & increased sensitivity to everything.

Hoping you get some relief soon, but I can't help with any info I know unless I know when the patch was due & when it was actually changed. Let me know & I'd be happy to help :-)
