Wow you are taking a tremendous amount of medication. Is this all being prescribed by one doctor? Really that is a lot on your body and could be really difficult to come off of if not done correctly. We are not qualified to give medical advice, but I would talk to my doctor about this fast.
Do you still NEED the meds? If the pain is getting better I would highly recommend seeing what you can taper off of. In your case, it makes sense to go slow to minimize withdrawal. How long have you been on these meds? The longer you are on, the harder to get off and stay off. Everything you describe sounds like text book opiate withdrawal and detox. It is no joke and no fun, but it doesnt last forever. It does get better. If you can get through the first few days, the worst of the physical will be over. If you and your doctor decide to detox you then posting here will help because there are OTC drugs and "tricks" to help the process go easier. If it were ME I would get off as much of that as possible. Please keep posting, there is lots of great advice here.
