appreciate your comments-and you were spot on...today I had to take my usual 20 mg dose and early also..I guess that means I'll be taking 5mg jumps every few weeks forever and ever.
I am just so pi55ed about not being told of the negative side effects of methadone when I was first Rxed it.
Also-- opinions on this-I get my script monthly-go pick it up from the clinic. I am doing this counter to my docs advise. Do I just keep picking up my usual RX until my next visit w/her? I see her twice a year-not due in until January and I wanted to be way way down by then-maybe get some support from her for the balance of the titrating.
I know it's my decision but curious about others opinions.

Theeagle is right,15 mg a day is way too fast if you are going to taper.Read sadinmichigans journal entry pertaining to methadone,it might help to answer some questions for you.All the best.....Kim
Do not try to do this too fast......a common mistake I see here is people doing just that - let your body adjust to a lower dose for a week before you drop another step.... if you get down and relapse its not good..... from my experience a 15mg a day reduction is too fast......................you will know if you try -----
