> Does anyone know of ANYTHING that helps combat the WITHDRAWAL(not "discontinuation symptoms")? Any vitamins or supplements or ANYTHING to help this???
I went to my family doc and he first asked if I wanted to go back on the medication. I said, no thanks! Then he said that we could treat the symptoms. I received a prescription for Reglan, because it is supposedly less sedating that Phenergan. This is for the constant nausea. Although, the nausea did help me lose 7 pounds in about 2 wks. Anyway, he also said that these symptoms should start to go away after about two weeks off of the medication. Yippee! I hope he is right. It has almost been 1 week so far. I'll keep you all posted.
