Go programme

Several people have mentioned the programme which touched on RLS. I Have just watched on catch up Ms was quite shocked. The gp had to look up RLS then immediately put the patient on Gapapentin but the poor patient had just been taken off dihydrocodeine and another heavy painkiller. I don't think she had RLS at all. Much more likely she was having withdrawal symptoms. Any thoughts.

Oh my goodness. So many of us saying the same thing. How very scary. Thank you for telling me about posts. I Haven't been looking carefully. Feeling really unwell with tremors following chest infection antibiotics and steroids. Never had tremors before. Still loads of rubbish coughing up but told not infectious any more. Misery.
