My journey started 2 years and 4 months ago when I got Covid. I got it very bad and it went into my stomach. I had very bad burning, nausea, diarrhea for 10 days. After that I somewhat recovered but still had lingering affects like fatigue, brain fog, burning stomach, starving all the time, nausea, terrible anxiety which I had never had before. I went through every test and was diagnosed with Gastritis. They put me on PPI's which was the wrong thing to do. This lowered my stomach acid and opened the door for me to get Sibo. I had my gallbladder checked multiple times with MRI and ultrasound and they said it was fine. Later to find out when I finally took a Hyda Scan that my Gallbladder was not functioning. Now, I have had my Gallbladder out for over 3 weeks and I'm still recovering. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to lower my anxiety and with it my dosage of Lorazepam that I'm taking. When I try to lower my dosage the extreme anxiety comes over me and it is terrible. I need to get off of this terrible drug and find some peace in my life. If anyone knows of a successful way to wean off of Lorazepam I would be ever grateful. Thank you for listening.
