And then yesterday my right leg was in so much pain that I couldn't stand it and it was purple with bruises up and down it, so I am scared that it has spread to my right leg! I am trying to not freak out or stress out about it because I know that will make it worse, but I am scared!!!

I could understand if meds were increased for surgery or another procedure that could add more pain, it would be reasonable to try to go back to the pre procedure med plan a short time after.

Is he just decreasing because he has decided that he is uncomfortable prescribing a dose large enough to give you some control over pain, long term ? That is an unreasonable plan.

Hang in there, Ang
