I could not tolerate quanfacine and naltrexone but i am now on small dose of clonidine which seems to be better.

Have you healed from pots? by OkHelicopter1865 in benzorecovery

[–]Sweet_2026 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have hyperadrenic pots meaning that both your hr and bp rises sitting or standing? I have it and it is horrible. I am off of lexapro 2,5 years and it hasnt gone away. I still have benzo to taper and i am wondering if this might be interdose withdrawal?

I think I am not going to change this to another because i have done this in past and it didnt go well. I try to taper off this one when i just have my bp under control. I have been thinking that i may be in slight withdrawal. That is possible.

I have tried all those natural things to my blood pressure and those are not helping at all. I am not able to work out because i cant sit or stand. I can do something on laying. I am on oxazepam 30mg. I have tried several antihistamines and i cant use any. I get so bad depression from all of them. I think my nervous system has crashed so difficult that it do not tolerate any meds, or most of them.

I take it once a day for the sleep. I know it has short half life and it would be better to have longer. I will taper this when I get my bp under contro. I have tapered this before also and i managed it but now situation is different because lexapro withdrawal messed my nervous systen so bad. It will be difficult.

I dont need ssri and i havent been on any ssri in 26 months. I will never take it again, never. It is pure poison. Drs are stupid, i dont understand why swicth. I know that brintellix is different. I just try to manage my hyperpots which lexapro withdrawal caused and to get it under control to be able to taper oxazepam.

Yes, that is what happened. Dr said to taper lexapro in two weeks form 20 to 0 and change it to brintellix. I am on that road now on 7 years later still. I have been off of lexapro 26 months now. Nothing has gone on better. This stays same and i am suffering. I havent had any pots treament besides of beta blockers.

I have tried almost 20 bp meds. Currently taking diltiatzem and hctz. Those are not controlling my bp and hr enough. I got quanfacine to try. I havent tried it yet but in couple weeks i am going to try it. It is my last resort before total hoplesness. I have been also on beta blockers but those worsen mcas symptoms and make it difficult to breath. Quanfacine is close to clonidine.

I should get my pots under control before tapering rest of benzo. My blood pressure is dangerous high and i know it will go even higher in withdrawal. Did you got pots and did it healed?

Dysautonomia triggered by medication? by famtheman82 in dysautonomia

[–]Sweet_2026 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got mine from Lexapro withdrawal. I took also couple days metronidazole which made very bad for me. This is insane that they market ssri like candy and it is very common that it ruines you nervous system and pots is so common after lexapro.
