    Thanks @Joe Cuber - no, no back, neck or jaw pain at all. Unfortunately I think an effect of the withdrawal. Had hoped never to take medication again, but having to take a blood pressure BB from today :(

    Dean I’m curious what is your blood pressure reading without the meds?

    @Sammy0225 - the blood pressure meds were to control my heart. I would lay in bed calm, drift on to sleep and the moment I hit sleep I had an adrenalin rush throughout my body to wake me. Couldn't sleep for 4 days. Current BP today is 124/90 - a little high but not in the serious hypertension range.

    Doctor thought this medication may settle the adrenalin rush and allow me to sleep. I took yesterday with sleeping tablet and managed 10 hours sleep.

    @DeanD oh,I see okay the reason I ask is cause I have high BP (inherited) but okay I was wondering. I had something similar to that but I think was panic attacks, cause I suffer from bad anxiety
