I'm sorry to hear that you have a rough time trying to get off
fentanyl. I am in the same boat. I take 100 mcq every 48 hours. I started lower and made my way up to this. My doctor and I have tried lowering the doses, and it didn't work for me either. I went into withdrawals within hours. It is the worst feelings I've ever had in my life. Anxiety, cold sweats, yawing, tears watering. I felt like I was going to jump out of my skin. I felt so helpless. I'm told I throw myself around. I must blackout. I've tried several times to ween myself, but I always end up back on the 100. I try going down to 75. Supposedly there is a new patch that is 12.5 mcq. Maybe this would make it easier for us. My doctor treats me the same way. He says it's my fault, and that I'm going to be on these for the rest of my life. The nurse tells me I'm going to get the doctor in trouble. I don't care anymore. This is ruining my life.
I've heard of a drug called
suboxone. They have a website suboxone.com It's a newer drug approved by the FDA. Only certain doctors can give it out, and it's easy for them to get certified. The have a provider locater, so hopefully they have a doctor near you. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm looking into it. Sounds like a miracle drug, and you can get a script for it. No hospitals. I hope this helps, and I'm sorry you are going threw this. I feel your pain, and I want you to know you aren't the only one. In fact I thought I was, until I read your posting. Good luck and let us know what happens. Your friend Andy
