I hope you are doing well Endopharm. You at least sound ok. I believe the pregabalin will help, others with more experience will chime in.
What I wanted to say to you and to
@Ballz_Trippington and a few others is if I ever win a lottery I am hiring the best lawyers there are to drag some of these "new docs" who don't feel they want you on benzos into court for recklessness and just bad medicine. The message being stop changing meds so fasts and anyone on benzos would need a long slow taper. Plain and simple. What is there to not understand? Long and slow taper. But if a person has been taking the medicine for years why not just keep them on? This nonsense that it is 2022 and some of these 'new docs" don't know about benzo withdrawal makes me want to drag them into court and explain what they know about medicine. And hopefully it breaks some of their banks for having to pay for a lawyer. Hell, a class action lawsuit.
It just really irritates me how ignorant some doctors are. I would like them to have to spend money and learn more about the medicine they are purported to be practicing. The whole notion that a person has to worry a new doctor and their meds is bullshit. Pisses me off to no end.
Sorry for ranting in your thread Endo. I do believe the pregabalin will help. I have no tolerance to any gabapentinoid so I would feel even 50-100 mgs of pregabalin and it would last all day. But then I understand the next day is a dud. It needs a few days in between. Like 3 days. So why the hell are doctors yanking people off meds onto other meds that may or may not help.
