My pain doctor who originally suggested I go to a rehab clinic was horrified when he read this story which I sent him. He considered the speed with which I de-toxed was dangerous. I reduced by 5mg a week from 160 mg per day. If he had had a chance to work with me on my de-tox he would have recommended a 3 -4 week 5mg reduction. 5mg per week was dangerously too fast in his opinion
