Hello, I am posting to my old thread because there is so much important detail and valuable information here, and it provides an almost identical context for what I am embarking on at this point in time. The only update for the past two years is that my pain was bad enough that I had to return to 25mcgs of fentanyl every 48 hours. But glory be, there have been huge changes in my body towards healing over the past six months, so I am beginning a slow taper of fent. again.
However, this time I have plenty of patches, so I don't have to rush. I am cutting 10% of my does every six days. So at this point I am on 22.7 mcgs. and will drop another 2.3 mcgs the next patch, so I will be down to 20.4 for six more days and so on.
My only question, after re-reading this valuable thread is does this WD sound too fast for a slow taper? In short, I drop 10% and hold steady for six days then repeat.
I am hoping Jabberwocky is still around, but will appreciate any feedback from people who know long term fent use WD.
