Has anyone experienced high blood pressure and fast racing pulse during a similar process.I feel as if my chest is going to explode. Have not been prescribed any pain killers during this period, but feel dreadful.

I withdrew from a very high dose of pramipexole after taking it for 9 yrars. I think it highly unlikely that your symptoms are a result of pramipexole withdrawal. They're not mentioned.anywhere as dopamine agonist withdrawal effects.

There are several explanations for your symptoms, but you need to see your doctor. Sooner rather than later.

Thanks very much Manerva. Have seen doctor and I'm currently taking regular blood pressure checks.

Best wishes to you.

Great that you are being monitored but the racing pulse is an additional symptom. Do you also find yourself breathing fast? Do you get might sweats?
