this is getting flippin crazy and i'm ready to scream....i am NOT going to die from this. So, i am the person whom has been very slowly weaning off of benzos for anxiety. In June i developed an inflammed esophagus OVERNIGHT, its never gone away, its subsided some but never been the same and now my stomach doesn't process food like it used to or it just regurgitates and refluxes (some of it) so i have to eat VERY small amounts, I've lost 25 LBS! from this, now weigh 114 so i have to drink ensures and take a weight gainer, i'm starting to freak out which isn't going to help anything. But i am soooooooooooo angry. the GI dr thinks my physical body is freaking out to the xanax withdrawl and that is why i am having so much reflux (doesn't explain gallbladder problems that began last month) so he told me to get back on my last dose (which i've done as of yesterday) and i i have a sore in the back of my throat and i'm sure more in my esophagus and I CAN"T GET THE INFLAMMATION TO GO AWAY. I started feeling chills this week but never had a true fever, just 97.1 and my throat became really itchy (bad itchy) and pains, etc so the dr said its an infection BUT never looked in my throat, never took my temperature and now i'm on an antibiotic 2 3x a day for 10 days. Ughhh, i just don't know what to do right now. I can barely eat and this has been going on for over a week now. I am going to see a specialist for a 2nd opinion on Dec 10 but things are so bad i don't know what i'm going to do till then. I have so much anger right now (and yesterday), people should not have to suffer like this and its just relentless.
Anyone with throat/mouth ulcers/tips? or hope? b/c i need alot of it right now, i'm getting depleted. thank you.
