Good to hear your current reduction is going well.
My current rise of 1.5mg per day (morning dose up from 6 to 7mg, bedtime dose up from 2 to 2.5mg) has made no difference in pain reduction yet but it's been only two days. I'll see how I am in the morning and continue another day or two if needed before reducing to 8.5mg, half a mg higher than the 8mg dose that caused pain to start.
