Are you from Roseville California?
I believe your symptoms are from decreasing your dose too quickly. 50% is a large decrease but what doctors often recommend. Try asking (insisting) your doctor about increasing your medication until your symptoms subside. Then reduce at a much slower rate, possibly by 10% instead of 50%..
Good luck,
Jake
