Benzodiazepines affect just about every part of the body. Contrary to popular belief there are GABA/BZ receptors throughout the body including the gastrointestinal tract and most if not all other organs in the body system. For this reason there is a wide variety of symptoms. However the good news is that you will NOT suffer all of these symptoms and hopefully you will not suffer any of them severely or long lasting.

Michael's Benzo Story
A personal battle and victory in overcoming a benzodiazepine addiction
http://www.bcnc.org.uk/benzo.html
I am going through hell - caused by a Dr. of Psychology who put me on klonipin for the last 7 yrs...
there is a number of these drugs classified as benzodiazepines... I have been to the ER 10 times in the last 2 months!
I never asked for a benzo
I never wrote out the RX for the benzodiazepine...
but I am having these electrical shocks all over my body - rashes etc...
I must contact an attorney... then see what to do before it kills me...
very very sad - I trusted her...she let me go -
and refused to prescribe again! - ie: fear of being sued!
