"i have very high anxiety which makes my blood pressure go sky high and my pulse rate stay in the 120&#039;s. my dr prescribed klonopin and valium at the same time to try to bring down my blood pressure and pulse rate. my breathing was bad and i hated being in the small waiting room. my biggest fear is driving but since she has put me on 1mg 4 times a day i feel amazing. i sometimes still don&#039;t want to leave the house though."
