chest pain is always a concern..it could be due to anxiety but having it checked by a doctor to be sure is best.....cutting ur dose in half may be a bit quick...maybe cut down 1/4 pill at a time...there is alot to learn at benzo dot org dot uk about tapering from benzos...needguidance can help u as well

Thanks for mentioning me worried. You know my personal hatred of Benzos! They should be illegal but the almighty dollar will keep that from happening.
Benzo1961, you have to take it allot slower than that. Your taper will probably take 7 months to a year. You can have serious seizures and medical complications.
Please refer to the taper schedules found in Dr. Ashtons manual. The site is http://www.benzo.org.uk/manual/bzcha01.htm. She uses a cross over to Valium method. Find a Dr. and have them look at the site and kindly ask them to taper you as outlined on the site. Please let me know  if the site address didn't come through correctly.
