I also had something like "brain shivers". Mentioned it to my doctors and they pooh-poohed it as they'd never heard of it.

Felt like a buzz of electricity was going down the inside center of my brain and "crackling"! The weirdest thing.
Never thought of the possibility it could be a medication side effect.

Those sound like brain zaps. They subsided for me after the initial, horrific month of withdrawals. B*nadryl helped tremendously for me.
