Benzos are highly addictive. I've been sober from alcohol for a few years but I went to rehab to get dry. I saw several people there kicking a nasty benzo habit that started with a prescription from the doc. Withdrawals from benzos can be life threatening if taken long enough in high doses.
I think this may be contributing to my problem. When my bladder issues hit I had to go on Lorazepam for 5 weeks (0.5mg/day) to let me sleep at night. Bladder issues have nearly gone away and I stopped cold turkey on the drug.At the same time I had a scary MRI report on my neck that exploded my anxiety.

At the exact same time my tingling and numbness jumped up 90% and was nearly constant.

So either the anxiety or the withdrawal of lorazepam has dramatically increased my symptoms.

I have had anxiety issues my whole life and it can be very powerful and cause severe paresthesia.
