Hello @greeneyedenergy and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I understand you are concerned with the twitches that came on in September of 2020 and that you have a fear of having to go off of Xanax due to the concern of not be being able to sleep without it and, additionally, the potential withdrawal symptoms. I am sorry to hear of the other stressors in your life such as your son running away and your lack of comfort with your bed.

Can I start by asking you if you have a scheduled appointment and if it is to see a neurologist?

Thank you, I appreciate you. I have to start with a gp here where I live. And it’s not even a gp but an arpn?... I’ve had an appt scheduled for feb 23. Saw the podiatrist today who says I really need surgery for Morton’s neuroma. I’m hesitant as I’ve read it’s not very successful and the neuroma can grow back.
