Hi all,
Thought I'd leave a bit of an update here for others to see who are going through this.
Day 1: The first night and the following day were not as bad as I expected, the RLS was maybe 5 out of 10, plenty enough to stop me from sleeping but it didn't spread to my arms and chest like it had been doing during the weening off period. Vaped prescription cannabis and took a small dose of kratom to get to sleep. Could only sleep for 30 minutes to an hour at a time but at least I could just vape some more cannabis and then get another 30mins to an hour - tiring, pretty crappy, but there were no nasty surprises. RLS: 5/10
Day 2 - 5: Worse RLS symptoms during the day and the night, mostly awake through the night then sleeping for a few hours from about 05:00 to 12:00. RLS: 7/10
Days 6-14: Low level RLS at all times, kratom relieves it for about 4 hours at a time. At night the RLS is worse but the cannabis/kratom combo helps me get to sleep for about 3 or 4 hours at a time, so a big improvement. RLS 4/10
However, the improvement seems to have stopped, how have others experienced this period of ropinirole withdrawal? I would love to know!
I'm taking Gabapentin each day, 300mg morning, 400mg at about 18:00 and then another 400mg at about midnight.
Others with experience, do you think this is normal, will it continue to get better or is this looking not so great? I would love to be able to go to bed and go to sleep without all this life-ruining hassle!
Thank you!!!
