Debi,

It never hurts to give the pharmacist a call or stop by next time you're close by and talk to them about the equivalent dose to the BuTrans dose you were taking. Then at least you can go into your next appt with the PM armed with the proper information and can speak to him about more appropriate dosing. He may change his tune if you go in telling him you know what the equivalent dose is and you would like to be prescribed the equivalent to what you were taking...not less.

I'm so sorry you are going through this. Two weeks will be here soon...although not soon enough for those in severe pain.

Please keep us updated.
