Hi,
I started my drop in fentanyl about four weeks ago. I dropped from 25mcgs to 12.5mcgs. I couldn't go lower, because of injury site pain that caused me to be on fentanyl to begin with. Anyway, I have been stable at 12.5 for three weeks now. The remaining problem is my resting heart rate is still 10 points higher then it was before and during the three years that I was at 25mcgs. Is there a good chance this is the reduction and it will go back to normal eventually? Or is it likely that I have damaged my heart in my taper?
Any and all input is appreciated.
thanks, Cindy
