First off, Congrats on the progress, that's a huge change! Personally, i think the taper, if you can do it, is a great idea, it's working for me. I would have to take 3-4 at a time every 4 hours or so. Now I am down to 3 per day. I do mine in 5 day increments. 4-for 5days, 3-for 5days etc. It's almost like working out.

I went through the same dilema, should I talk to my dr. or shouldn't I.  I decided to be upfront with him.  That was a mistake!  He pretty much told me that there was NO WAY that I could be physically dependant due to the amount of time and the amount I was taking.  Pretty much saying I was the patient he knows all and I know nothing.  I even told him th...

I am so sorry that you are having to deal with this. No one deserves that sort of treatment. I am concerned what kind of effect this has on your children. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Be strong!
