Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
yes I have been taking lorazepam 1 mg for about 9 months twice a day. I have an Aortic Aneurysm 4.8 cm and am planning to have surgery sometime in October this year. I am a chef and have a stress full job and quite physical. I try not to lift more than 40 lbs. The Lorazepam helps me a lot. I do get bad leg charley Horses frequently at night so they gave me 5 mg valium once a day only at night and that did the trick. Now my doctor has taken me off the valium because he does not want me on both. The Charley Horses are returning again and they are crippling to say the least they can last up to 30 minutes. Any Thoughts Chef Gene
