Goodness lisa, sorry you are having such a time. Ask for help or get another physician. To wean off meds is difficult. I needed my doctor to do it, and didn't have any trouble with it at all! He reduced gradually and I had minor sweating, that was it!. It just sounded like PA didn't hear you at all. Getting someone to listen is essential, don't settle for a brush off. good luck and hope you get lots of good responce from all of us. Be good to your self. ginnie ps. I did get lots of help from this site too
