Fancy,
Rest assurred, you do have time to get that amount out of your system and you really do want to do that! I certainly do understand your concerns about talking to your doctor. But I wouldn't freak out about taking around 20 mg. to 25 mg. of hydro a day. Yes, it's better not to take anything, but I am SO VERY GLAD that you are only taking that much! So feel good that you CAN DO THIS. I would go down on my dose, 5 mg every
two days. IF you feel physically bad at all, then cut them in half and you will only be dropping down to 2.5 mg per day! Like I said, if you are comfortable, so is the baby, so don't let yourself hurt. You should be able to do this in less than two to three weeks and that is with going very slow! But once you stop, stay there or you may end up starting back! You dosage is not that high at all, and plus thank God you've only been taking them for six weeks! Just try the
tylenol for your back pain, but don't overdo that either once you get down to nothing! If the pain is too bad, then talk to your doctor about that once you are off the pain pills! Start this today and you can do it. You are already pretty far along with your pregnancy, so you want to start as soon as you can! Let me know about your progress, and remember, if you start to feel bad, just cut them in half and cut the dose every two days. You shouldn't feel bad at all cutting 2.5 mg. every two days. I think two days (instead of every three days) will work for you since you are on a low dose! Keep me updated and let me know if there's anything else I can help you with!!!
