Been on patch for over 6 years. Use the 25s every 48 hours. Is it best to try to taper off over months or take something else to help? Get cronic cluster migraines. I just think it is time to see how I feel when off these patches. I know it will be hard. Hate anxiety and when I go without for a little bit it gets real bad. Have always refused to go to the 50s cause thought would be easier to get off the 25s. I do worry what will happen with my pain. Before the patch was a every day 7 to 8 pain. Did ER once a week. The patch gave me a life. Just now tired of being tied to the patch. Always wottied about refills or running out. So what would the best way be? I also take Vicodin every day for the past 6 years. the 5/325s. Have stopped the vicodin and had no problems. I know it was because of the patch. Thanks
