Zanaflex and hallucinations

Hallucinations, clumsy like a drunk, extreme short term memory loss, my husband recorded me with camera and it shocked me to the core. I had no idea it was effected me. I too as some is taking it for back pain from lower and 2 upper neck surgeries. I am going to Dr. today to discuss other options. My prayers to you all.

Given Zanaflex after 6 back surgeries. Dosage take 2 tabs (4mg) 4 times a day. Total dosage 24hrs (8mg x 4 = 32mg.) This seems high to me. What happens is my stomach does not digest food, mobility slows way down; can not urinate, pass gas. I am a 52 female, with spinal problems. I also have HTN, and when I miss a dose to drive, my face is flushed bright red, B/P soars in the 200's. I can not move my bowels up to 10 days. I am now off this medicine and yes, I hurt, but, once in awhile I will take 1/2 tab. Anyone else experience such bowel, urination problems? And, yes, the HTN? I am now on the generic. This is the medicine from hell. I feel better with a lowered dose. Please help me with your comments. by kwncln

Thought I was losing my mind--started seeing thing's and people I knew were not there ---Saw my Husband outside in the snow with our dog I thought he was waving---I went to let him in ---He was not there ------ my 19 year old grandson was seen as a 12 year old sittiing outside in the snow smiling at me---I once again ran to the door of course he was not there. Also saw white mice running down my door's ---slept with my light's on and was very upset that I was losing my mind. So relieved to find Discontinuing Tizanidine stopped all symton's. Very frightening expierence.

I have no idea what zanaflex has to do with back problems. It makes me super mad and I seem to be losing my mind. I have very bad leg and back pain and this seems to make it hurt worse because it stresses me out. I have really bad hallucinations that make me think I'm going crazy. What is this zanaflex crap? What is it actually perscribed for?

Hallucinations, paranoia, fatigue

hallucinations, dry mouth, distorted vision
