Aww Rspwed...
I am so sorry you are feeling rough! It sounds like you did a good gradual wean...so I am kind of surprised that you had a tough final step off. I wouldn't blame yourself or chalk it up to impatience...I think you are just experiencing an extra sensitivity to the discontinuation...
...or, just needing an alternative, so I am glad you contacted your doctor.
Wishing you quick relief from your new Rx. Many people have good maintenance on Lex...and there have been a few recent posts on this particular med here too...so be sure to look for those.
Keep us posted, so we can keep you encouraged!
S.C.
