I have been on Buspar for about a week now and also take Klonopin when I get an attack. Each night while lying in bed I have a physical "twiching" or spasm below my left rib cage. No matter which side I lie on this spasm is constant. It makes me paranoid that it has something to do with my heart and usually starts to bring on severe anxiety. Anybody else out there hear of such a thing I know its real because I can even feel the twiching with my hands. Any suggestions or advice

I get muscle twiches/spasms all over my body. It is normal for people w/anxiety and panic. It's a common side effect of stress.

Not that great so far so they upped my dose and put me on 20mg of clexea with it. Too many meds in my opinion. I have trouble sleeping and get a bit jittery. I am trying to use Klonopin only for bad attacks and not as a sleep aid. It seems to be the only med that really works for me. Xanax does not. "stop my mind" and makes me irritable Dr put me on a muscle relaxer to stop the spasms and help me sleep. I took one just now because I was feeling good this evening but still couldn't sleep.

Im ready to start...
