Just to keep you up to date I have completed infusion #4 of 5 today. No nauseousness and my rls has improved greatly. Nothing throughout the day and have been sleeping fairly well. 6 hours each night.,.ok that's awesome.

Follow up visit with my neurologist in 6 weeks to see where the levels are and if I need meds.

I am on an additional gabapentin. For those of you who don't know me I already take 2/day for epilepsy.

May the good news continue for myself and also all of you!

Just learned the hard way that I still need to watch what I eat. Got cocky and ate some potato chips and some chocolate and am now riding my dreaded bike!

Ah well, it is shorts weather may as well tone these legs! 😉

Hope the chips/choc set back was temporary and you are now once again enjoying 6++ hours sleep. Please keep us posted. Am thrilled it is working. Will be interesting to see what your iron levels are when you finally complete the process.

Not what you're looking for?
