First post - last MS Contin

[Quietsunshine26]

I've been reading posts on this site for at least a year. With your help I'm stopping MS Contin last pill was at 6 AM. I have all the necessary "flu" remedies. Wish me luck please. I'm doing this alone but know its completely possible. I just don't need it anymore. Thank you for listening/reading.

How are you doing now?? Just wanted to check on you...
Also, be careful with the adult beverages they can make things worse...

2:12AM - headache, runny nose & my legs feel like I want someone to pull them off. Legs - hmmm didn't prepare for that one. I'm hoping I have enough energy to head to Rite Aid & also hoping they have something to help. Can't go into town just too much traffic. On a lighter note - my daughter Face Timed me from Seattle, age 15, she's  down there with her dad & cracks me up. Thanks for the encouragement everyone, it's SO nice that you all understand & I have people to write to.  I'm afraid this will get 100 times worse by morning when I usually take my 6 AM pill. I CAN hopefully do this, I want it, I just really want to be done. Good night/morning whatever.

Thank you both for responding. I had 3 blood clots about 6 years ago. I used to have pain but don't anymore. About a year ago I went from 90 mg to 45 mg in my own just because. Last month 45 to 30. I just want to not have to take this everyday in order to not get sick. Hoping I can do it. Thank you.
