I was put on 75mg of Fentanyly for 3 weeks (Started June 1st) Then a week ago I was upped to 100mg. I decided I do not want to be on it anymore so i ripped it off last night at 11:30pm it is now 1:00pm the next day and I feel jittery and just like my skin is crawling... I still have 10mg percocets, muscle relaxers etc. that I am going to use to help me get off the patch then wean off of the pills which is much easier because you can cut them up... but since I was only on the patch barley a month will it be easier for me? When will it start to get better and feel "normal" again... I have lupus, Sjogrens, Fibro etc. I just dont want to be on the patch... taking some pain pills sometimes is okay (for me) but to be on this continuous patch that has so many risks at such a young age (23) i am just not comfortable... I need all the advice I can get I am very scared.
