RLS Meds & Post-Surgical complications
Although the Oxycodone did take manage of my pain once he increased my dosage to 10 mgs (my doctor discovered that he had to give me more than 5 mg every 4 hours, because my tolerance for
opioids
was high due to 5 years on Tramadol).

Jelbea in reply to dickJones and anyone on buprenorphine patches or tablets.
GPs usually have to keep a strict record of
opioids
and I understand this. I do not know what I will do if the buprenorphine fails for me. As everyone knows on this site RLS is a very cruel disease.

Pregabalin not working so GP has put me on Duloxetine. I am confused!
He was also quite firm that NHS policy was against prescribing
opioids
, (Buprenorphine or Oxycodone) for obvious reasons.

Help with talking to dr about meds

By the way RLS sufferers should be prescribed

Opioid use for rls
I wonder if anyone has experience or knowledge about the use of a variety of
opioids
for rls in the short run, I.e. using a different one each time to avoid addiction or dependency. Over a week I might use Tramadol twice, OxyContin once or twice and the same with Hydromorphone.

Pain Clinic for RLS
But since the long term treatment is low dose
opioids
, I figure I'll have to go there. Just wanted to know if your pain docs help you or how your experience has been with them.

"Exercise is good for joints with wear-and-tear arthritis"

opioids

Pain relief for Pernicious Anemia numbness etc.
has given me prescription for Gabapentin, Tramadol and Acetaminophen with Codeine (both
opioids
which I don’t take). I know with Pernicious Anemia, I should avoid NASIDS and other pain meds. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Once again thanking you all in advance for your all your help.

RLS After Broken Femur
I knew this happened when withdrawing from
opioids
but it hasn't settled after 3 weeks and she is getting about 3 hours sleep. I suggested she ask her GP for temporary meds like clonidine to deal with the opioid withdrawal symptoms and the RLS.

Urgent help from someone who is located in the USA and being prescribed opioid
Hi, It would be nice for anyone who has been prescribed
opioids
by the USA doctors to provide their providers' name and location to help each other who is in need for
opioids
but has no access to find a doctor, especially in an emergent situation.

NY Times article on how the opioid crisis affects people in chronic pain
All - FYI, here is a guest essay from today's New York Times talking about the problems that have been created by the rules restricting the prescription of
opioids
. I'm grateful that this point is at least getting some major press coverage.

Natural relief for opioid constipation
Hi, like many of us I suffer with really bad constipation as the result of taking
opioids
. I take morphine and it successfully controls my RLS but the GI side effects are awful. Currently I am taking Laxido but would prefer to manage the constipation naturally long term if possible.
