I am Klonopin for dystonia. When I experienced onset, it started
with a no-no tick which would not go away for two years. Then,
I was left with a type of essential treamor and muscle spams which
hasn't gone away... This is all the result of a prescription I was
given to treat an ulcer in 1967. I was Baclofen for 19 years but
had to stop. Guess my system had enough of the stuff. As for
the Klonopin, it makes me feel drowsy but it works well.

So true! I like this quote. ;)
