Coming off escitalopram

I've been reducing my escitalopram since early October. I have been on it since May.
I was on 15mg a day so went down to 12.5mg for a few weeks, then 10, then 7.5, 5 and now I've been in 2.5mg for eleven days.
I'm getting hot, prickly skin, headaches, vivid dreams (so not sleeping well) Muscle aches and hot hands and feet, and feeling sick and sometimes a bit low mood.
I've had these symptoms since I first started reducing the dose, some more than others.
Has anyone else suffered these? Any idea how long it will last or any advice? Thank you
