Hello
 
I would like to say hello to everyone and happy new years.
let me start off with who I am.
I am MeggerPiez, hehe, I have been a panc attack victum for nearly 12 years off and on and this is the first time I was given a drug called Lorazepam. I have hear it is very addicting which scares me. I was given a 10 day dose but took them in quarters to ease the horrid side effects I got from them. Anways..i have posted with info so feel free to laugh at my question and feel free to tell me some things about this drug.

Hi MeggerPiez

Welcome to SR.

I hope some members will have some experience to share with you.
We can't give medical advice tho - have you spoken to your Dr about your concerns with Lorazepam?

I have called 3 diffrent pharmacies who have told me that a quarter of a 1mg is too small of a dose and the half life would quickly disipate. they all told me it is just a panic attack. since I said I have had these:

Insomnia
Hot sweats
clamy
Panic attacks
shaky

they said insomnia causes these clamy, hotsweats and shakyness aswell as panic attacks.

I want to believe them but idk........I will most likely call every dr in town asking this stupid question since the er staff cant help me. they gave it to me and if I call them they will just want me to go back.
