On February first I started withdrawal from ropinirole . It took me till the end of .the month to get completely off it. I think around the 24 was my last time taking it To ease the side effects caused by withdrawal I have been taking Suboxone. So , I take suboxone, get side effects , take more suboxone, get more side effects....it goes on and on. I am in pretty bad shape... I have an itchy rash, my muscles jerk and twitch. uneven gait , I make noises, it's like vocal twitching, flu like symptoms. Crying all the time and crying . Do I need the ER ? This isn't a good time to need the ER. I am following doctor's directions.

I wish I had an answer. Does the doctor know how bad it is? And has no answers? I wish I could help. Just know that my prayers and thoughts are with you. And maybe someone else here will have some experience to share. I love you and you're not alone.

Alright, I'll give you that. You've known her longer.

Hello Pam

Sorry you are on edge and you are hitting high doe. Could the problem be related to withdrawal of some of your medication. The feelings you explain above sound like it is all down to medication withdrawal.

Have words with your GP and ask what is suggested. One way around something like this is to return to the original medication, just a small dose to feed the withdrawal. If the old medication is still present in your body that MAY cause other problems, two drugs fighting each . You live in America so yes You could discuss the problem with the A and E or Health Information Line. A telephone call to your Doctor may also be informative.

Are you also jumpy regards Virus, we have closed ourselves off from two days ago ?

Hi Pam poor you. I agree with Bob that it sounds like you have come off too quickly. I would go back on a small dose and do it a lot more slowly. Hugs xx

The virus situation adds to my anxiety. I have an appointment with my doctor this coming Friday. I think I will keep it and see if I can set up something on the computer so I don't have to go out. I am reluctant to go to the ER because of the virus. I live in a metropolitan area and the stores are decimated. Lines to get in and random shelves are filled. You find bread at on e store and have to drive to another for vegetables. Most of these situations are caused by people panicking or greed. Some places limit what you can buy. It sounds like you and Hazel are well placed. I think of all the fruit you wrote about her putting up. I know what you and Hypercat say about my drug situation is right. I was in panic mode last night . I can handle the side effects as long as I know they won't kill me.
