Avatar f tn I've been taking 20mgs of paxil and my psycholigist wanted me to stop after taking it for month. I've been taking 25 mcgs fentanyl for a month now i'm trying to go cold turkey, but i've been on paxil before and had no problem with withdraws maybe cuz it was only ten mgs. The symptons never afected me this way . It could be the fentanyl as well but i was'nt as bad before I started these.
Avatar m tn Is it better to cold turkey or to taper off? (burn out or fade away...) I have been taking any type of opiate, up to 10 - 10s a day, but lately whatever i can manage to get, usually 5-6 a day, and mostly from the street, with an occasional script here and there. I recently was put on supervised probation, and have to attend classes 3xs a week. 8wks ago i tore ligaments in my foot and ankle, so as long as i have a valid script, i get in no trouble. BUT - I'm tired.
Avatar n tn I am two weeks away from having a gastric band fitted by a specialist bariatric surgeon at a private medical facility. In the meantime through my usual doctor I have been referred to an ENT specialist as I have had difficulty breathing for some time and upon mild exertion become very breathless although I recover quickly. It feels as though I have someting spongy in my throat however chest x rays, thyroid tests and heart indicate all is normal.
Avatar m tn I have tapered from 90mgs per day to 20 mgs per day over the last 3 months. Now I am contemplating whether to go cold turkey or continue the taper.........but here is the thing. My wife thinks I finished my taper 1 month ago and it would be catastrophic for my relationship if she discovers I am still taking pain meds. I had throat and neck cancer and still have pain, but I can handle the pain non-narcotically.
Avatar n tn If i do it this way would it be easier when i get down to 1 to 2 pills a day, with withdrawls, or just going cold turkey, would be the same. Please hurry I cant do this anymore.
Avatar f tn Consult with your doctor!!! I didnt and that is why my exp was so awful, the pain doc dismissed me cause i did cold turkey so my primary I know will help more tomorrow. I feel that pain doc is just about a drug pursher who doesnt inform people but i digress and ramble. some days are better but I am on my way. Last night you were there for me. I hope in some way this will help you. I believe in you....you will get there and off of them and it may take longer but you will. I know you can do it.
Avatar m tn She has been taking Xanax for years. Her neurologist has told us to stop all narcotics-cold turkey. Is this right? She is going through hell right now. It's been 2 weeks. How long do the withdrawls last?
Avatar f tn Things come to a head a few weeks ago when he started coughing up blood an our little boy asked why he was so sick in the morning when he got up an why he had to go out all the time. He is now gone cold turkey as i type this i can hear him thrashing about as this time the withdrawl is a hell of alot worse i suppose it would be going from 6 bags a day to nothing. HOW DO I HELP HIM WITH HIS WITHDRAWELS THIS TIME????? WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT??????? WHAT CAN I DO???????????
Avatar f tn Just want you all to know that I decided to quit cold turkey. I will be starting tomorrow. I am ready to be free once and for all. I'm so tired. Asking for your prayers. Kinda scared for some reason. Thanks.
Avatar n tn About 12 a day and he stopped cold turkey on Sunday afternoon. What side effects can I expect? Any suggestions on how to help him get through this would be very helpful. Foods to eat or avoid? Tea or herbs? Anything to help him get off naturally. He is also a sugar and caffiene addict. Lots of candy, rockstar and coffee. I did give him a zanax to take with him to work yesterday but he didn't take it until he got home and fell asleep at 7:00 and slept 12 hours.

Avatar m tn I'm on 1500mg Depakote, 160mg Geodon & 4mg Lorazapam a day! I've been on dozens of medications over the years for my Bi-Polar Disorder & nothing seems to help! What if I stopped, cold turkey, taking any medication for my illness? Would I feel better after going through withdrawals? Has anyone else gotten off their medication cold turkey?

628981 tn?1260555203 I'm a veteran with a severly broken back who has been on Hydo and morphine for over 6 years. I told the VA Doc that I was tired of taking all these meds..instead of slowly getting me off these he stopped my precrip. Now I'm in day one of cold turkey and at work...This will be the hardest thing I will ever do..harder than Ranger School.
