Does anyone have to take valium, klonopin, or xanax? I do and it helps immensely. Only 10 Mg valium/day. My LLMD doesn't understand it. I would die without it I think. It helps w/ dizziness, blood pressure, and twitches.

Yep! but a bit more. on them for a while..Helps when the crying jags come around also. Was on 5 mg for a couple years.
But when put on Rifampin ,had to up dose for a while.
FYI...... Rifampin messes with a ton of meds,supp.and hormones.... So it might not be Rifampin people have trouble with,but could be,the changes in their other meds that need adjusted.
I can tell you no doctor told me about any of this... Was a kind call 24 hr. nurse line..You just never know.

I have the same thing! My LLMD does not understand why the ativan helps me so much! I can go from having muscle twiches, weird disorientation issues, anxiety of course, even joint pain to having nothing or next to nothing if I just take an ativan. It also helps with my dizziness and my ear ringing!
i was thinking that it helps calm down the central nervous system which is what is probably causing all those issues in the first place
