    I'm happy to report that the equation has been solved and I'm on the mend. The pharmacy's change in my generic did in fact trigger massive withdrawals due to the low levels of Klonopin in it. I've chosen to look at this as an opportunity and a blessing. They were finally able to locate my generic brand again. I've decided to ween myself down, and eventually off...likely within two months. The pharmacist and I decided that to do this, considering my head start, I'll start back on half the dosage per day that I was originally on.

    Again, I want to extend heartfelt thanks and love to my clutchfans family for all the support.

    Go Rockets!

    Two years ago night swears/chills started and i was fatigued like crazy, like couldnt get off the couch. Tons of weird things going on and felt like utter garbage. It took 5 doctors and a hematologist to find out i had the epstein barr virus, aka mono. I was tested for everything from cancer to low teatosterone and i mean everything. My symptoms were all over but night sweats, chils feeling feverish and super weak were the most common, my irons levels were low all kinds of stuff. Anywau ot rans it's course been fone ever since. Lasted almost three months

    Whiskey - That's a horrifying tale. You've obviously been through Hell. That of not knowing, shuttling to doctors, plus the awful symptoms. I'm so glad to hear you are well now, with no trace of the virus. And, I appreciate the support, man...seriously....and not just in this thread.
