Not sure what it is.: You don't say why you were taking the Ativan (lorazepam) or how you now feel awful. The Ativan (lorazepam) itself is long ago out of your system, so it's not causing the problem. Did you have a return of whatever symptom you had before, e.g., not being able to get to sleep? Do you feel bad in a new way? Assuming a doctor prescribed the ativan, (lorazepam) speak with him/her about what's happened; no need to continue to suffer.
