If you've been relapse free for 19 years it might be your medication has worked well. Check with your Dr. since he/she knows you best about recommendations ( decrease the dose or wean you off ). Remember there's the possibility of a relapse even with medication currently being taken. Your Dr. knows you best and could discuss this with you.
