Unhappy legs

[dgregg61]

I have taken mirapex and ropinerole and gabapentin. Gabapentin makes my legs swell and doesn't help my legs. I have to keep going up on the mg. Of the mirapex but now the doctor just doesn't get the fact that it isn't really helping anymore. The patches we're a joke, they did nothing for me. My neurologist found I also have neuropathy in my legs now tdue to something called mgus., So now I have been checked for blood cancer every 3 months. It never ends. They can't help with my legs because it isn't cancer yet but when it is, they say the chemo will stop the neuropathy. A no win situation.

Have you thought of trying a Naturopath. I did when Sifrol stopped working and Dr vould not increase dose. I am having a lot of success with magnesium and gotu kola. I have akways played around with magnesium but now I have a specific dose of a specific type. 1000 mg of mag chelate three times a day. And two capsules of Nature's Sunshine Gotu Kola (A safe brain and nerve tonic) with lunch and two with evening meal. Still take 0.25 Sufrol before bed. Took a couple weeks to get rls free days. Now, after a few months, any mild rks I get is eadily controllable by a short walk or standing to wash up or iron etc. Note that is is specifically designed for me but I am extrenely hapoy to have great results without taking dangerous drugs with nasty side effects.

Best wishes.
