I am so happy for you, Dancing Queen! Was it difficult when you started Buprenorphine? Did you have nausea?I'm so terrified from my first and only "bad trip " with Buprenorphine that it's hard to even imagine trying it again! Other than my once a week .5mg dose of Ropinerole (which gives me almost 7 hours of sleep), I am not on any drugs and have had entirely sleepless nights. Last night was good....I got 3 hours!

You might want to try lunesta for sleep. I take it. If you do try GoodRx which will probably give you a cheaper price even than insurance.

Buprenmorphine is an opoid, it just masks the symtoms and does nothing to address the cause of RLS

[D4nc1ngqu33m in reply to Eryl]

Thee are no cures for it only relief and l will except any relief l can and this is the best l have had to date without having to up my dosage. l have had this condition for 40 years more🙏

[D4nc1ngqu33m in reply to D4nc1ngqu33m]

Lucky l haven't had any sickness with the Brurenmorphine.

[Eryl in reply to D4nc1ngqu33m]

It'ts not caused by any pathogen in most cases (so doesn't need a cure) but by neuroinflammation most commonly caused by foods. I've completely eliminated my RLS by avoiding inflammatory foods from my diet.

[D4nc1ngqu33m in reply to Eryl]

Everyone is different l have been on different diets nothing has ever worked for me so I'm ok with the relief of not having to get up and move about all night long ,🤗you must be one of the lucky ones out there

[Eryl in reply to D4nc1ngqu33m]

If the diets that you tried weren't targeted at lowering inflammation specifically I wouldn't expect them to work. I wouldn't consider myself lucky, just rigorous.
