So you've been on 60mg. per day. And you've only got 70 - 15mg of Oxy left. Hmm. Not sure how you're gonna do that ~ and i don't have a CLUE about the Poppy pod tea.

If I was advising someone JUST about the drugs, i'd advise them the FIRST week to cut down to 60mg, the 2nd week to 50mg - I usually prefer to do it in 5mg steps by using a pill cutter. But as it is, you don't have enough to do a real good taper. You'll use them up in a heartbeat. You're going to have to "make do" with the tea ~ I don't know how you'll do that. By hit and miss I guess. But you're going to somehow have to taper the tea too. Good luck on THAT.

Best of luck ~ I hope it works. Don't you have the pain anymore? I hope not for your sake. God bless. Peace, Lee
