Yeah well thanks for the reply. That really does help and I have an appointment with my doctor in the next few days and I’m really leaning towards making this my last month but I’m not sure what she will think or what her opinion will be but I know she has never personally gone through it even though she is an expert and I do respect her opinion but it seems like you have to actually go through it to feel the way we all have. I will also look into that anxiety type medicine I think you mentioned to help control blood pressure. Well I will continue to talk up here on this forum because I think it is a good idea and can help me cope when I try to finally stop taking this medicine. Thanks for the input it is much appreciated. |
Hi. I stopped Sub on 9/14 from a dose of between 1/16 and 1/8. I was on it for nearly six years. I got through the physical stuff and was into the draggy feeling, and then I had surgery. I took pain meds for about 1.5 weeks and stopped. Really, those pain meds should not have caused me any trouble, as far as w/d and stuff. However, it really set me back. Now, I’m back to the morning anxiety, the diarrhea, the chills. It’s getting a little better each day but it is unbelievable how strongly my body latched onto those pain meds. I think this just takes a while. I’m expecting to feel good after four months of no Sub and no surgeries.
