Beepster, your post is enough to cause anxiety, LOL! Thanks, now I am in a panic...LOL!! I haven't had a Holter in about 4 years... but, had an EKG last week and all was fine!

Full anxiety, etc. Just need a little support. Anyone out there made a Klonopin wean, or any benzo. ...

When I was 7 I was diagnosed with something called Meniers Disease, and suffered for about 3 yrs with it, then many different treatments, mostly just for symptoms. I'm now 38, the hearing loss is moderate, and permanent, but all other symptoms are gone. I hope and will say prayers that the damage is...
