I see. When will you go back in to have your levels tested again?
How are the withdrawal symptoms? I do hope you're feeling better.

I'm sorry. I forgot to ask if you had blood tests done and that's how ou found out you were low on vitamin D? A blood test is the only way I know of to tell if your low on certain vitamins.

It sounds to me like you tapered too fast off this med. Can you talk to your Dr about staying on .25 mgs for awhile and tapering more slowly? Even though you don't need this med going back on it and tapering much more slowly with really help with your withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms will go away without going back on the med. It's really hard to say how long they will last though. It all depends on if you want to wait it out with no meds, or taper much more slowly with less withdrawal.
