Thanks Mildred. I guess it was a combo of lack of sleep (many nights) and one night no Klonopin and (no trileptal).
I wonder how long my muscles with hurt for?

> I am currently in the process of withdrawing from klonopin. At first I tried too quickly - one night cut my dose in half (from .5 mg to .25 mg) per my pdoc's instructions, and the next night I had a bunch of mini seizures. When I took the klonopin again, they stopped. With advice from a fellow pbabbler (thanks, electricstorm!), I am now tapering down much more slowly with no ill effects. I thik that skipping that one night could definitely have caused the seizure, Maxime.
