insomnia in middle of night
my husband is weaning down. His ropinirole from eight mg. He is currently on 6 1/2 mg and just has a slight amount of RLS coming through mostly around 10 o’clock at night. The worst part is he wakes up at 3 o’clock in the morning and cannot get back to sleep, he does not have a RLS at that time just

Hi folks, I have been a member of this community for awhile but have never posted. About 4 years ago, I started being very short of breath. Since I am a former smoker, the first thing that came to my mind was lung cancer. I went to lung specialist who ran numerous tests and concluded that my lungs

Billiary Stent
6 months on from my transplant and I’ve just had my second stent fitted, I walk at least 2.5 miles a day but I’d like to do a bit more moderate exercise to try and lose some belly fat. My wife is concerned that it could cause the new stent to migrate as well, is she right. Thanks Chris

My Cardioligist did a left heart catheration last weds and placed 2 stents in my RCA that was 99% blocked. That has all seemed to work out well. He also was going to try and stent my LAD that he now says is 95% blocked. He said the entire LAD was 95% thru out the entire LAD. He decided then it would

Pain after stent

The pain is quick and sharp and doesn’t last like the Angina pain he had pre stent so he doesn’t need to use his spray. It still

RLS nightmare
I have had Rls for about 10 years now and am currently on Ropinirole 4mg. Nights are ok but it’s the daytime attacks that are becoming a nightmare now. I just did a 4 hour flight to Europe and despite being early morning, within half an hour my legs were going ballistic. I spent the next 3 1/2 hours
