I just wanted to know if you started using your patches yet. I hope
that you have. As far as the withdrawl of it, dont worry about that
now. When it is time to go off them, your dr will help you do it
gradually, so that the symtoms will be very mild. If you havent started
using the patches, you need to. You have to be responsible for your
health care. That means, do what your drs have recomended, use your
pain patch! When I first used mine, it was gradually absorbed. It didnt
hit me like a ton of bricks like some meds, it was just gradual. In a
couple of hours, I felt so much better, because the patch took care of
my pain.
Best of Luck
