Hi, Thread.
Rose, I'm glad you're so close to the end.
I am having unbearable neuropathy and I don't know why it has flared up like this. It had been improving and now I'm thrown back in. I take the little 25mg tablet for sleep. I have been cutting it but am wondering if I am so inaccurate that I am really yo-yoing on it. I think I'm down to 17mg, but I don't have much confidence in my scale or my measuring.
My benzo was originally prescribed for a severe sleep disorder. I habituated to it quickly and it did nothing for sleep any more. Switched doctors. New psych wanted me off the benzo and used the Seroquel so I could sleep. But I wake up so drugged and groggy and can barely function in the morning. Yet it gives me 5-6 hours of sleep. Before the meds, I was getting 0-2 hours and was in agony. So this is less agony, I guess. Except for the neuropathy.
Rose, Can you describe what yours is like? I am trying to figure out it it's the taper doing this or something else. My symptoms are so weird. They change from burning to piercing to scraping and wander all over my body.
I have had some help with how to do a water titration of an insoluble. It is possible, so I am going to try that if I can get my brain working. That will be a challenge!
