RLS SPECIALISTS
I am making this article just to vent a little bit. I’m 34 years old with severe RLS chronic in my legs in arms , I don’t have augmentation I never used DAs. I have tried every drug I know there is no cure little no treatment and the side effects from opiates are horrible. I really have no life anymore

Stuck with requip feeling hopeless
I am 58. I have been on Requip for 7 years. I had been on 1 mg and for the past two years have been on 0.5mg. I have not been able to reduce from 0.5 for any length of time. I also take gabapentin 600 2-3x day and tramadol 50 2x day though my scripts are for 3x day. My ferritin level is 160 with

Soluble tablet shock
Hi all I have a problem swallowing tablets so I try to get soluble ones but not any more, I had no idea how much salt is in them. They are soluble and fizz because they are a bit like bicarbonate of soda 3 soluble co-codable or paracetamol is the equivalent to a tea spoon of salt and if you take the

After CABG how long before blocking could reoccur?
Hi all. I had triple CABG almost 4 months ago and im fine, getting good exercise. I have no problems but feel bit bad for not eating as well as i could all the time. Most of time im good, but not perfect. My question is how quick could arteries clog up again if you dont get your butt in gear? Thanks

Well as promised here’s the update, just came up from the CAF lab an hour ago after procedure to see if needed another stent and ended up with another 3 😳, that totals 5 in my LAD in just over three years since my HA, hopefully will be a while now before in need anymore interventions. Also hope I can

Sertraline
I have been taking sertraline for several years. Since my restless legs got worse and I have been reading about it, I am cutting back. Does anyone else think that the antidepressant made the restless legs worse? And has anyone come off the antidepressants and coped? I’m coming off from slowly so far

Indigestion after Heart Attack
I had my heart attack last year. One stent. Now experiencing right chest pain sometimes in the evening. I often think I am having another heart attack but after going to casualty I realise it is indigestion. I have never suffered with this prior to the heart attack. The pain is bad. It can be difficult

Heart Failure post CABG, collaterals
CABG is supposed to help us but i see most of us having heart failure post CABG. I knew that collaterals that we develop are like natural bypass and it protects us but in spite, of that I went for CABG and i have heart failure ever since. I regret that I did not take multiple opinions. Wanted to hear

Tissue Salts
So, given that I was in Covent Garden on Monday, and quite literally walking past the end of their road, it felt plain rude not to call into Helios Homeopathy. Following a chat with the homeopath I decided to get a remedy called Combination 12 Tissue Salts. I need to take that for a minimum of three

Stamina and keeping vertical all day !
Hi - I'm 5 months post CABG, I returned to work 4 weeks ago in school- it was difficult mentally the first few days but that's improved. I still can't manage a whole day without needing to be horizontal for at least half an hour, not necessarily napping. I'm on my feet most of the day or sitting at my

Good Planning Can Work.
Yesterday (Saturday) I had one of the loveliest and most memorable days that I've had for some time......I went into London to meet my DIL-to-be, to see her in the wedding dress she'd shortlisted as, 'the one'! The date had been agreed and on the calendar for a few months but I was becoming increasingly

New diagnosis
I have posted on this site before in regards to my daughter and her restless legs syndrome. She was on a very high dose of morphine as a last resort which of course caused augmentation and misery. She ended up in a Health Care Center and did manage to lower her dose to a manageable level with the goal

Nothing works
I'm taking 300mgs pregabalin. I've tried even more but it doesn't work. Even with tramadol 50mgs it does nothing.I can be walking around until 3.30 to 5.30. I've taken tonight my 300 pregabalin and 2 OTC ibobrufen and codeine. I've just taken 15 mgs codeine and a teaspoon of Kratom. I'm still rubbing

Desogestrel back and leg pain
Hi Everyone, I've started taking desogestrel as treatment for endometriomas and fibroids. I've only been taking it for a couple of weeks but I'm getting terrible back and leg pain every morning. It wears off a bit during the day but comes back in the evening. Also I'm having to get up every night

Ropinirole to gabapentin
I am in the process of moving from ropinirole to gabapentin. I'm now at 900mg of gabapentin and heading for 1200, and down to 3mg from 4mg of ropinirole. No obvious side effects so far. Any advice on staggering gabapentin across the day? I would have thought the aim is to eliminate RLS both during the

Clopidogrel and vision
Hi everyone I hope you are managing to stay cool in this heat. I am hoping to come off my Clopidogrel in September, which will be 12 months since CABG. Since I have been taking this my vision has definitely got worse. As a diabetic of 36 years I have to look after my eyes, but they have definitely deteriorated
