Waiting for stent but anxious about catching covid
Hello- I’m ‘5-7’ weeks from an angiogram/stent…. Taking Asprin/atorstatin/amilopidine (sp!) and feeling fine. But several of the kids and teacher in my sons class have tested positive for covid in past week…. We’re (still!) negative. Is it a terrible thing to get covid if 47 and severely blocked LAD

Coming off Apixaban
I have been on Apixaban 5mg twice a day for 6 months now due to me having a pulmonary embolism due to being bed bound with covid. I’m due to come off my medication today as my doctor insist I not longer need treatment. I’m very nervous to stop taking the tablets and what effects it will have on my body

Anyone tried a homeopath
My mum has suffered with rls for about 10 years. She's tried ropinerole, pamiprexole, skin patches, gabapentin and pregablin. All of this gave her relief at first and then symptoms returned. Next the doctor gave her topiremade, with this her rls went away however she had really bad depression symptoms

Is there any advantage to putting off increasing my gabapentin?
Up until about 6 weeks ago the 1500 gabapentin that I take completely controlled my restless legs. Then about once a week I got restless legs. I have exercises that I do that take about 10 minutes that allows me to go back to bed without symptoms. It seems pretty obvious to me that I will eventually

Weak, breathy voice
Hi, I've posted on here before, my husband had an NSTEMI in June last year and a stent fitted. Since then his recovery hasn't improved and we still haven't got a diagnosis. He is unfit to return to work and he has these episodes which are increasing in number each week. He feels an uncomfortable pain

NAC for RLS?
Has anyone tried NAC N-acetylcysteine? Did it help? I accidentally found this, my first thought was how could they miss this? "Glutamate can be reduced in the brains of persons with high glutamate levels within an hour of oral ingestion of N-acetylcysteine" I am taking it at the wrong time! If your

Newbie - where to start ?
As the title says, I’m new to the forum and very new to RLS. I feel that I’ve been suffering for around 5 years, but of recent it’s getting worst.
