James,

great report, seems like recovery is going smoothly for you all things considered. just keep counting off the weeks, things do get better. As far as the narcos go, try to cut back 50% then wait several days. Of course, if pain persists return back up to previous dosage. Keep doing this each week and you will find your need becomes less over time, let your body guide you, that is the only way and just make sure to slowly taper the dosage. don
