Actually I saw Dr. Charles Lapp who worked with Dr. Cheney. I do have a prescription for clonazepam and take it prn for panic attacks. But it doesn't do anything for deep, restful sleep. I feel more mellow on it, but going over 0.5mg is depressogenic.I also tried diazapam, but clonazepam seems a bit better. It also increases my fatigue, so I don't take it daily.
I actually may want to give Lyrica another try. That's another med that I have to keep the dose low. I get blurry vision and big time weight gain on it, too.
