I mean cold turkey sounds like a terrible idea.

Obviously you need to be off these medications in the long term but it seems nuts they can't work with you to make a plan to reduce them. Like by consolidating your daily dose of them into norspan patch and dropping that weekly. Or by just reducing a certain amount every few days/weeks.

The difficulty is obvious the opioid crisis and the "baby out with the bathwater" approach it almost forces doctors to have with genuine patients, because they're worried about doctor shoppers and addicts gaming the system.

But yeah you should have a single doctor you see. They should have the s8 permit that means no other doctors can prescribe them to you. You should have a contract that agrees you won't go over and they won't replace "lost" medication etc. You should have a real plan to reduce them over time. If there's any concerns the doctors have you could agree to pick up your medication daily/weekly from the pharmacy so you don't have them all with you.

If you have private health insurance you should consider a referral to a pain specialist who does ketamine enfusions. They admit you for a week, put you on ketamine whilst you stop all the medications. Basically stops you withdrawing and controls pain. By then end of the week the ketamine is weaned and stopped and your off everything.
