If s/he wants you off your pain meds, then I reckon s/he needs to set you up with some pain-management techniques IN ADVANCE, to help you cope.

These might be things like breathing and meditation, physiotherapy, psychotherapy, things like that.

I suggest discussing your concerns and fears with your doctor and insisting on getting some help during the adjustment process, seeing as you're so anxious about it.

Unless they've been in heaps of pain themselves, I think doctors simply don't GET how upsetting and scary it can be to have pain meds taken away from us when we need them.
