Therefore discussing illegal drugs any further should be avoided, Thank You

I would consider seeing another GP and explain the issue to discuss any addiction problems plus how to manage any withdrawal symptoms. You can also talk to FRANK, link provided talktofrank.com/ as you may find there is local help who may be able to help too.

Please look at our website for information about recommended medications for Fibro & maybe you can discuss treatments plans for the future with your GP at some point

I wish you all the very best and hope you feel better soon.

Emma :)

I'm sorry to hear this Jojo. Doctors don't like prescribing tranx these days. I get prescribed them but only because I take them occasionally. If you keep taking them on a daily basis an addiction will develop (as in your case) and then you will get withdrawal symptoms when trying to come off them. Have you got any drug addiction services in your area? You could also try googling drug addiction services in your area and see if they advise re addiction to tranquillisers. Most addiction services will and if not will point you in the direction of someone who can help. Best wishes xx
