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

@jdiakiw Hi again. I am glad you shared your own protocol for detoxing from opiods. Maybe this will keep someone else from unknowingly suicide. I know I can ask and I know you don't have to give me an answer, but Why did you do that? You didn't even follow guidelines? provided on the internet.
