Hi Mishi,

 

I was always told to take it easy with my taper during stressful times.  So if you feel very worried about the flight, it may be best to hold your dose.  What day should you be making a cut to your dose?  If it's one day this week, I would think you'd be okay to do that...it gives you approx. 2 weeks to stay at that dose which seems safe to me.  I made weekly cuts, so a 2 week old seems very reasonable.

 

I hope I haven't confused you much...at the end of the day, if it's going to create less stress to hold your dose until you fly, then do that.  Adding another week or two to your taper doesn't change things much.  I had to sometimes hold for extra days, and although at the time I was disappointed, it really didn't change my "plan" much. 

 

All the best to you, Mishi.  Thinking of you!

Hi Mishi,

If you think you can do a cut now and be fairly stable by the time you fly, then do it.  However, in my opinion, with the stress that you are feeling about this flight and the move, it might be a good idea to hold until you settle down where you are going.  You will also want to give yourself a little time to feel comfortable with Donna and your new surroundings. 

 

Will you have internet connections to be able to connect to the forum when you get there, or will you be on your own for awhile?  This might make a difference in your dosing also.  Let us know what you decide.

 

Luv,

Poplady

Schatje how are you feeling? thank you so much for you help.  I am cutting once a week right now... Sometimes I feel like it will not make a difference because of the w/d I will have to weigh it out.. I usually make a cut on a thursday and I am leaving on a tuesday... Schajte I hope you are doing well in your recovery now... Hoping that you are not suffering...

 

You did not confuse me just help me... Let me know how you are... Hoping you and your family only good things in life

 

all the best to you too

Luv

Mishi
