Thanks cking56! After my tremors/body buzzing/eye twiching started all kinds of scary thoughts started from MS to PD etc. But the Klonopin crossed my mind as I realized it all started a month or so of starting the medication. After being told twice that the drug wouldn't cause these issues I started doing a deep dive into Klonopin online and read that although rare, tremors were indeed a potential side effect. My sleep doc who prescribed it obviously never saw this before or doesn't understand how it can affect people differently, which is obviously the case with all meds. Only med. I take is 10mg. of atovastatin and frankly probably don't need that so I knew this was only thing that changed in my daily life. I feel horrible reading what others have gone through for years of taking this med. I'm still in disbelief of the dosage that others take, as I said at double or triple my dosage I would have been confined to a wheelchair as this benzo does a number on ones central nervous system. I now have a greater compassion for those hooked on all meds. Take care!
