RLS regimen for occasional big flare-ups?
I’m in the process of switching from Pramipexole to Pregabalin. To help ease the transition - Just got a Rx today for buprenorphine/naloxone (2/.5mg); I intend to cut the strips into fourths. Assuming all goes well with the rest of the transition, I’m wondering what people do to manage flare-ups?

It's all becoming overwhelming
Hi Everyone,It's been 9 months since my 3x Cabg, recovery has been slow. As we came into 2024 I was being investigated for AFib and was supposed to have a loop fitted. This was put off because at the same time I was diagnosed with breast cancer and the loop couldn't be fitted because of the need for

pending CABG
I’m so inspired by the stories people have shared, and photos! This is my first post so apologies if not all relevant. Being a fit 58 year old male recently diagnosed with angina to just hearing I need a double bypass has terrified me. But the wealth of information on here as well has people’s first

what to do? Take .25mg Pramipexole and 7.5mg zopiclone for 2 or 3 nights? Or not?
Cannabis isnt effective atm so I need a 5 day break. Being sleep deprived from RL and insomnia just now is awful. I can't see my doctor to discuss methadone till after New Year. What to do? Doctor prescribed .25mg Pramipexole to try, but I'm too worried about augmentation to take these. BUT....I'm exhausted

11 months post quadruple CABG (25/07/23) after Nstemi heart attack (13/07/23)
Wow , what a month. Enjoyed that one 🤣👊🏻. Passed my module 2 motorbike test and got my full A license to ride unrestricted motorcycles. Passed in the Monday , picked up my 2019 Harley Davidson Sportster 883 on the Tuesday 🙌🏻. A couple of little issues meant that it went back to the dealer for some

Hydrocodone?
My doctor is prescribing hydrocodone for help with my restless legs during plane flights, in addition to my regular meds, ropinirole and pregabalin. Has anyone had experience with this? Thank you.

Vomiting blood following Drug Infused Balloon
Hi, I had my 3rd Angiogram last Thursday, They couldn't stent as my LAD artery is narrow as well as calcified. A drug infused balloon was used to dilate the artery (marginally), a few few hours later I became very unwell and vomited partially digested blood and fresh blood. I was discharged the next

CTO of AV circumflex
I had CABG just over a year ago. Continued to have same symptoms as before after discharge from hospital. Angiography revealed that CABG had failed. MRI revealed CTO of AV circumflex. Now been referred to interventionist to “risk assess” procedure. This I take to mean they will likely go nothing

My fitbit tracker can't get a consistent HR reading while i'm asleep or awake.
Hi all hope everyone is well First of all when it comes to monitoring heart rate etc, I am aware that fitbit tracker is not everyone's cup of tea. Thing is since i bought mine a few years ago it has always been so reliable and dependable....never let me down. I diagnosed with afib, mild mitral stenosis

PMR again ?
I stopped pred on 8th October after 4 years and was OK until now. I have developed stiffness and aching in hips down to knees and am wondering whether the PMR has come again due to stress. I was diagnosed with breast cancer on 11th October and am currently on Letrozole to (hopefully !) shrink the tumour

Cabg triple bypass 4 yrs ago after 2 Ha's, 1 month ago HA and now on 5 more drugs for helping the heart more and angina. How soon is it possible to fly after this, my thinking is might as well rest in the sun as in the rain. Fit enough in my self - doing fair bit of walking, not out of breath or any

Interesting Article (please read)
came across this article today and would like to know your thoughts: i was swayed by flashy advertising in the late 1990s featuring medical stars like Professor Lord Winston, who convinced me that omega-3 fish oil supplements were essential for my brain and my heart. Fast forward to today, and

Moderate Calcification
Good morning all, I was recently invited for a lung check and have been recalled as the scan showed moderate Calcification. As I like to be proactive and believe this is due to fatty diet, are there any recommendations for menus that will halt (improve?) This condition. My brother dies with this condition

buprenorphine study
Just wondering what people think about the recent study below? Study population was people with opioid use disorder (OUD) who are taking buprenorphine to manage it. Apparently an unusually high percentage of participants had RLS symptoms. I thought Bup alleviated symptoms? I’m in the process of getting

Co-codamol any good for RLS or PLMD?
I asked my GP for buprenorphine. He gave me co-codamol. Does anyone have any personal experience of this opioid? I'm not in pain, but have PLMD. I'd love to know if anyone has used co-codamol - and how they took it - and what their experience of it has been.
