Andy, I now have new sleep doc that I saw for first time about 2 or so weeks ago. Previous one gave me the klonopin which soon caused side effects, tremors, body buzzing, eye issue, and some weakness in my legs. He prescribed it after I told him I was having issues with insomnia which could be result of mild anxiety. I honestly just thought it would help me sleep better, which it did, but then the side effects started about 6 or so weeks into taking it. Was told by he and his assistant that they didn't think klonopin would do this. After 7 months and my symptoms getting worse, I stopped cold turkey as of March 3, so just 3 months ago. My eye issues stopped almost immediately, body buzzing was terrible first month or so after stopping but is much improved. Leg strength also much better but I do still have some minor body vibrations taking place. Lingering effects are prolonged and worse for people who stop cold turkey like I did but the symptoms I experienced while on it were freaking me out and slowly getting worse. This Benzo was poison for me but that's my personal experience. BTW, my current sleep doc said she would have never given me klonopin. Just go's to show, beware of your physician, they all look at things differently. I have 3 docs in my family and I remember my Harvard/Johns Hopkins nephew tell me to be your own advocate.
