Hi there:
I, thankfully, did not suffer the peripheral vision problems you report, but I definitely have suffered permanent muscle rigidity, pain, spasm, and neuropathy problems. I just went through a full battery of neurological tests with my neurologist and he found nothing wrong and we reached the conclusion that my symptoms are lingering effects from the meds.
I also have short term memory deficiencies and my anxiety is significantly worse than pre-treatment levels. While some people may have no problems with these drugs, the risk of permanent deleterious effects is enough to convince me that these drugs should only be used as a very last resort when all other treatment modalities have failed.
