It's difficult James because some of these meds are working against others. The Valium (diazepam) is particularly problematic, imo, when on paroxetine. The problem is if you remove one the whole house of cards may fall apart. Do you live near a teaching hospital with a psychiatry department? If so, there might be a way of scoring an appointment with the professor from the linked university.
I suggest you discuss the side-effects with a chemist/pharmacist. Not sure what can be done about the bowel, but there are topical preparations which may ease the night sweats.
