I have been on Lortab for about 15 months. I was prescribed it post surgery, even before I was dx with RSD. At this point it does little to help with pain and it is my understanding it is contraindicated for RSD anyway.
I am also on Cymbalta, Tegretol, Norflex and flexeril. My PMD said it nay be doing more harm than good at this point an to figure out what to try next I need to be off of the Lortab. He said I will not be a pleasant person to be around for about a week. I told him I wanted to wait until after Christmas then. He suggested if I was going to wait to at least cut back the amount by a pill or 2 until then. Aside from that the plan was/is to cold turkey stop. Anyone ever just quit pain meds cold turkey? Just wondering what I am in for.
