Absolutely the best RSL drug .

My husband is shocked he told the good doctor he has never ever known me be still in bed . He said even on oxycodene and stillnox I was fidgety .

So what difference do I notice

I feel NORMAL

I actually don’t feel like I take medication

I can take wafer medication anyway I like

He said I can take in one dose or break up into as many as I want .

I actually went 24 hours without any and still slept without moving

I break it into tiny crumbs and take a crumb when I feel like it , at the theatre or at dinner anytime I like .

I can actually just stop it f I wish NO PROBLEMS.

I only average half a wafer a day meant to take One .

Subliminal 15 minutes and it works - he recommends an hour before bed .

Now I get into bed and drop off to sleep in MINUTES YES minutes . It all feels normal not drug induced . Legs are floppy , I also notice I am not curled up tight in a ball , instead I wake up sprawled out like a baby in a cot feels so good .

I have slept like I did in my early 20s ever since , I can curl up in my husbands arms for hours and not move ,

I think he it only hangs on to 4 receptors,

I asked if I could pop his details he said of course

He is still a practicing anesthetiser a couple of days a week and runs his clinic

He has other patients he has put on Buprenorphine and all have done well .

Dr G Brooks is one of a kind

I am thrilled to be off the oxycodone and sleepers Endone

All those replaced with a few crumbs

Serious still blows me away I’m thrilled .

I am picking up a 4 month supply on Friday from the pharmacy they had to order in .

He wrote it to look like 1 month on the script however it is enough for 4 months

For those who don’t live near by it might be worth ringing see if he does Skype appointments

I did not ask him that .

Just mention the name Kester if you call

I told him I was posting on healthunlocked
