Guest guest Posted May 1, 1999 Report Share Posted May 1, 1999 I went to the dr and he of course had never heard of RLS. He did however offer to do what he could for the symptoms I described and I think it ended up being pretty on target. I dont want anything long term. I just want to get the current flare ups under control. Turns out the spasms in my neck showed up in an xray to be just that....spasms that have pulled my neck out of line (or far too in line actually...there is no natural/relaxed curvature in my neck) so he gave me a graduated dosage of a prednisone related Ed to take for a week (6 one day, 5 the next, 4,3, 2, 1) and then 2 weeks of an anti inflammatory. In addition he gave me about 6 weeks worth of xanax to take 1/2 to 1 in the morning and 1-2 at night. What can anyone tell me about the side effects, addictability, etc about this particular drug? Will I be able to easily stop taking it within a matter of weeks? At this point I'm not interested in a lifetime of Rex's. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
