Zopiclone Taper/Withdrawal
I’ve been on Zopiclone for about 4 years now and have slowly upped the dose because they were becoming less effective. I’m currently on 60 mg a night, sometimes I wake in the night and top it up with 2 to 3 7.5mg tablets. I’m always fine the next day but I know they’re not good for me. I was thinking

Hi Until December last I was taking 40 mg iron bisglycinate with orange juice every two days. Since this had little impact on my RLS I increased the iron dose to 40mg every day from December until now. As yet I have noticed little change to my RLS symptoms. A blood test this month showed my ferritin

Cold Turkey Update
Some of you are familiar with my story so far so I will make this brief. Three years ago I was taking 6mg Pramepexole. It took me nearly three years to taper the dose down to 1.25. My idiotic Neurologist said he would no longer treat me unless I stoped taking Pramipexole. He writes my prescriptions

sleep DEPRIVED
Hi everyone, Hope you are all well. I have spoken about this issue before in my previous posts and was given a lot of advice on what I can do to help me sleep. A little background: In January I started my full time 6mths placement (training) as a pharmacy student or a trainee. This is my second

Best advice sometimes? Telling your GP a white lie can go a long way!
You're very lucky to have been prescribed pregabalin, an opioid, and sleeping pills. You have a generous doctor. Pregabalin is great for insomnia, by itself - I'd ask for an increased dose now personally, seeing as the zopiclone has been stopped. 300mg of preg is a standard dose.Personally I'm cursed

Ferritin and TSI results.
Hi, I haven’t posted for a while as I have been investigated following a positive faecal occult blood test. They have found a large polyp in my caecum which I am having removed on Friday. For some unknown reason, I have had a few months of remission from my RLS but now they are ‘kicking off’ again.

6 weeks after surgery - am I doing ok?
Hi all, Had a pretty tricky last few months, was diagnosed with endocarditis at the start of November (had been feeling ill for a few weeks before), the infection responded well to IV antibiotics over a 6 week period so that was a positive. However due to several other developments I also needed

Pain management and antidepressants/anxiolitics
I vaguely recall reading about how some members experienced some pain relief from particular antidepressants and/or anxiolics. Can anyone tell me if there are particular ones you are aware of used successfully for pain management? I am in my 4th year of PMR. A few setbacks. Suffer insomnia terribly.

Anxiety - yes that old hat!
Ok, hi all and I know many have brought up this subject and I know many suffer. But I'd like to hear from you on how to cope and what works for you. Also to hear from those who have had T for a few years and how they coped in the early stages - I'm 3.5 months in and not really coping. I have been on

BUPRENORPHINE SUBLINGUAL BREAKDOWN AFTER 9 MONTHS TOTAL TREATMENT SUCCESS.

what to do? Take .25mg Pramipexole and 7.5mg zopiclone for 2 or 3 nights? Or not?
Cannabis isnt effective atm so I need a 5 day break. Being sleep deprived from RL and insomnia just now is awful. I can't see my doctor to discuss methadone till after New Year. What to do? Doctor prescribed .25mg Pramipexole to try, but I'm too worried about augmentation to take these. BUT....I'm exhausted

Sleeping pills? Are Temezepam and Zopiclone okay to take to get to sleep ?
I am a 65yr old male. For many years I’ve suffered with poor sleep, basically tossing and turning from side to side in an attempt to sleep and scratching my head and other places in my legs. Basically I just have the urge to move after a few minutes. This happens regardless of whether I’ve worked hard

Insomnia - Could nightime liothyronine exacerbate it?
Hi, I've just read: https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/148510755/liothyronine-brands-and-insomnia. As ever the answer seems to be "it depends"! Some better on or off lio, some better at bedtime or on waking, etc. My sleep pattern is (roughly) one half-decent sleep followed by an utterly awful
