Weight gain.

Hi everyone. Can you please give me some advice. I would like to know of any treatments which don't have weight gain as a side effect. I've tried ropinorole, pregabalin and gabapentin, now on neupro, but put weight on with 3 of them. The gabapentin didn't do any good. Thank you.

Yes, try a vibrating power plate. They are good for weight loss too. Lots of different models on the market - try ebay :)

I found I lost weight when I was using kratom as a treatment. Unfortunately it's not legal in UK - has to be imported from Holland - and consequently may suffer from lower food safety regulation compliance. However, this may soon apply to all foods in UK so perhaps it's best not to get to hung up on such issues.
