[Di...] Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Hi After very long battle w withdrawL and taper I recently reduced from 1mg Valium to .5. I’ve had a sudden change in bowel movements. Diarrhea. ConstipAtoon. Bloating and cramping after eating etc Can these be due to benzo withdrawal? Concerned it may be a medical issue and have gone to dr but now I think it could be physical withdrawal symtpms Are these common? Only physical symptom I’ve had in the past is tinnitus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
