Like Linda said, everyone is different. I was never on higher doses of Fentanyl, so I just stopped abruptly one day. I actually think that I could have stopped postop Fentanyl and Dilaudid sooner than I did, but I had a big box of Fentanyl and a bottle of Dilaudid and figured that I should take them because the pain management MD gave them to me postop. I was not in pain on them.....and when I stopped them, found out that I wasn't in pain either. This was about 2 to 2.5 months postop, so early on. Maybe I just captured the sweet spot!.....probably just lucky.
