The doctor 2 weeks back stopped syndopa which she is taking for the past 8-10 years. After the surgery she is able to walk which she was not earlier, but at night she cries complaining of severe leg pain from thighs to toe, crying inconsolably. The Surgeon who oeperated her says it is not due to nerve compression as the surgery was a suceess. could this be withdrawal of syndopa.
