Have you tried decreasing your dose yet? You could try going down as low as 4-5 mg and see if that helps. I would talk to your doctor about it. Perhaps a muscle relaxer would help? They are not addictive and can be used PRN (as needed). (That said, I suppose some people could have issues with muscle relaxers as it relates to their addiction.)
If I were you, I’d most definitely get in to see your doctor for a full work up ASAP. I do understand your desire to stop your sub if these body zaps, as I call them, are as bad as you say.
One last suggestion….If you do end up going off sub because of this, I suggest you report this unusual side effect to the FDA. You can report it online here: http://www.fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch/default.htm
Good luck and please let us know how this turns out. And I’m really sorry you’re going through this. I can’t imagine how it must feel.
