>Once would be hard pressed to find a doc to give up like 50 to 80 mgs of valium a day Ed. I barely get 40. The usual seems to be 5 mgs 3 times a day. K though, no problem, with my dianosis they prescribe up to like 6 mgs a day. K though makes me feel real funky, hard to explain, and it gives me bradycardia and more depression. Also more muscle tightness and breathlessness. Pluses are it seems to be tougher on panic/anxiety and seems to be a better job at holding down the burning sensations. At times i want to just fast taper off this stuff but do not think I now have the emotional resources to do a hard hitting alice in wonderland terror struck withdrawal.
