Hi Guest,
You are correct. Your doctor should have been tapering you down slowly - I am not sure about these pills though, are they addictive? A painkiller with an opiate in it?
That is a huge difference. Did you tell your doctor anything different during your last appointment to get cut back so drastically? If you have fibro you should be seeing a long-term pain management doctor. Someone to look into at least.
Good luck and hope this helps
