Has anyone taken Soma and gone off it? Do you have to come off it slowly or can you stop it cold turkey?

I have been on it for about a year and it isn't working for the spasticity so am back on Sinemet and want to come off the Soma. The neuro wants to eventually taper me off but of course I have to wait til my next appt for any answers. Sometimes being a lab rat has its disadvantages!

Any experienced users input would be appreciated!
