History of HBP. What does sudden withdrawal of atenolol cause?

I have been taking 0.5 mg of Klonopin BID for 22yrs. Dr wants me to get off so decreased my PM med to 0.25 Had some trouble sleeping at first, some vague side effects, then after 2 months, was decreased to 0.25 AM also. Foggy head, lethargic, not able to think straight. Saw him today & he said withdrawal from small dose would not have these effects & advised blood work with Internist for thyroid or anemia. I feel crazy. Don t the Dr know the withdrawal symptoms?

I am a 68 year old woman who has been taking 40 mg of Vyvanse once a day for ADD for about 5 years now. A few months ago I began to experience elevated blood pressure, a tic of lip-smacking and lip sucking, and intermittant whiteness of my fingertips. I have researced on line and seen that all of these symptoms may be caused by this drug, although the last 2 are very rare. I have learned that my age and the long duration of my taking Vyvanse may be a big factor in these symptoms appearing now. I have been trying to find an appropriate doctor who can answer my questions about how to go about safely stopping the taking of this drug. To date 4 doctors (neurologists of various types) have told me that they do not treat this problem. My primary care doctor has recommended 2 of the 4 that have turned me down. He did however give me a 1 month prescription for a lowered dosage of Vyvanse @ 20 mg and I have been taking that now for 5 days. I am experiencing withdrawal symptoms which I expected and am very willing to endure to get this drug out of my system and hopefully get the unpleasant side effects to diminish and even more hopefuly to go away entirely. Can you tell me if I am on a good course of action and if I am going about this transition in a safe manner?

Hi there. I have been on an SSRI( Citalopram ) for 9 months. My highest dose was 20mg per day. I have tapered off slowly over a period of 5 months. I quit entirely one week ago and my withdrawal side effects include some anxiety , tiredness(lack...

For the past couple of months i've had a lung and breathing problem, bad wheezing, unable to get air - not sure if it is allergies or asthma, symptoms are worsened at night, sometimes producing phlem when coughing (bright yellow / some brown) but generally not much mucus production, just clogged airways.

In the past couple of days it's been a lot worse
Last night it was very bad, I got panicky and went to an urgent care center

The doctor after listening to my lungs said they thought i most likely had an asthma attack

They then prescribed 60mg daily of prednisone for one week, and an albutoral inhaler.

Yesterday I started amoxicillin (500mg capsules). I took one in the morning, and one at about 7PM before i went to the urgent care center, but did not take a dose last night as advised by the doctor.

The doctor there told me (after prescribing the prednisone and inhaler) to discontinue the amoxicillin completely

I said i was coughing up bright yellow mucus with some brown, they said that doesn't mean infection, and just stop taking the amoxicillin, and start the prednisone and inhaler

I am not sure if i should discontinue the antiobiotics, and if I will need to ween myself off of the prednisone, as i've heard there can be withdrawal symptoms.

I currently have no insurance and don't have a doctor, and am very confused to what to do .. I just want to get better, and am not sure what the wisest decision is

thanks for taking time out to read this
