Yes, I had terrible heart rates and BP. I changed my blood pressure medicine to help. I am also on gabapentin to help. I was on 2.5 for more than 15 yrs. I am older and needed to get off klonopin. I did 2.5 mg tap er to 1mg on my own. Couldn't physically go lower. Primary referred me to addiction medicine to work on taper and watch my mental health. 4 months later as of last week, I am off klomopin completely but having major withdrawal symptoms. Once I got BP meds changed I am better . Keep going. It's hard but better off med than staying on.

You were on a large dose for a long time. I hope you tapered very very slowly. If you didn’t, this could be why you’re having major withdrawal symptoms.
