Withdrawal Symptoms Of Cymgen (Top voted first)

I've been on 60mg of Cymgen for almost three years. It is been used to treat fibromyalgia. I came off it cold turkey 5 weeks ago with my doctor's consent. It was causing dangerously high levels of blood pressure. Two weeks in my blood pressure is back to the normal range.
However it has been 5 weeks of hell wth the withdrawal symptoms and I don't see an end I sight. Every time I see a glimmer of hope I come crashing down again. I went to work for a total of three days in January, and for only a few hours at that!
I'm at my wits end. I've tried herbal products o help ease the symptoms as well as Motillium and Mittal for the extreme nausea, nothing works. Is there an end in sight??

Hello, Linda! How are you? Have you consulted your doctor, again?

Generally, such symptoms only take about 4 to 6 weeks to improve, when you stop such a medication. The NIH lists other withdrawal effects as possibly including nausea, pain, diarrhea, rebound depression, and anxiety.

Are you on any other medications?

Hi I have not been back to my doctor as there is nothing that he can give me. Basically I just have to work through it.
