Neuro Muscular weakness after withdrawal (1 year off Loraspam 2mg 8 years use)

[[ha...]]

Greetings:  I wonder if any of you have encountered this.  My mom was on Lorasapam for eight years, 2 Mg. She has been fully detoxed since June of 2022.  Now we have seen a neurologist, and they are witnessing muscular weakness in her legs and arms. All tests show that things are every day. She has liability in her tongue, also affecting her speech. There was no stroke, but it started happening once she detoxed. She just wanted to see if any of you folks have seen this and how you have alleviated it. My mom goes to the senior center twice a day to work out and do personal training two times a week. But she has not gained the amount of tone she had before the detox and just wanted to get your thoughts. It is effecting her walking due to muscle weakness.

Weird part of this whole thing is I am getting up the food chain in the neurological world so high every test is normal.  hopefully your symptoms get better my mom is not as bad as your describing.  One person I reached out to brought up the following sensory distortions including of proprioception.  My moms main neurologist is bringing in a leading neromuscular specialist.  All this for wanting to sleep and being on the horror ride of a drug.  Prayers to all I will keep everyone posted as I learn more on this journey.

There were days my legs were so weak and tingling I was convinced I had MS. The weakness was very scary. She’s not alone. Prayers.
