Reintroducing DA at a low dose?
What is the current thinking around taking a low dose of a dopamine agonist in conjunction with another RLS medication? I took pramipexole ten years ago and experienced augmentation after approximately 12 months. Fortunately I didn't experience DAWS when coming off it. I have been on pregabalin for

Depression and RLS
It's a big problem for many of us. They often go hand in hand and treatment can be problematic. There is hope. I'll reintroduce you to our good friend buprenorphine (and other opiods) that may be a solution some have been looking for. Check out the link below. The results for treating depression sound

Update on rls
Hello everyone, just an update to let you know how I have been getting on since coming off the dopamine agonist. It's around 3 months now since I took my last tiny piece of pramipexole, after a pretty rough time of crawling legs, arms, shoulder shivers, I'm finally getting better!!! While coming off

Looking for advice, yet again, please.
I had an appointment to see my GP today regarding high blood pressure. I have been taking 10mg Ramipril for some time but recently BP has been high and erratic. Apparently, I cannot go to a higher Ramipril dose, therefore, need to change. I’m aware that some BP medication can interfere with RLS, so

why docs don’t want to prescribe opioids for RLS….😔
With all the recent total panic by docs on not prescribing opioids, I thought I would just attach Andy Berkowski’s excellent piece on why we are often being refused opioids now and almost certainly in the future at least for sometime. You may well have read this article before Kakally Andy Berkowski

Hair Loss
Does hair loss go hand-in-hand with Fibro? Or is it the Buprenorphine patches I am on that have caused it? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

tortuous world of pain
I have no words, I have been to see 2 pain specialists, 2 neurologists for ongoing nerve damage pain, back pain and restless leg pain and symptoms..e.g continual torturing tugging, electric prod like pain and jerking of whole limb. I discovered when I had my last spinal operation that the Buprenorphine

Buprenorhine Patches.
Hi all. I’ve posted quite a lot recently about my Severe Spinal Stenosis and Heart Failure. I’ve now had a second opinion and, unfortunately, it is that there’s no further treatment suitable due to Heart Problems so I have now been taking Buprenorphine Patches for 4 weeks. The Pain Consultant started

BUPROPION
I received an email from Goodrx saying that Bupropion caused hair loss. I am loosing hair quite frequently and was wondering if anybody is having the same results. Also, if this is the cause of my hair loss, what other antidepressants will not aggravate my RLS. They are asleep right now because of

buprenorphine -what next
I’ve been on buprenorphine for about 2 months now. I take 600 micrograms. I have also been slowly reducing from pregabalin by 25 mg every two weeks and am now on 100mg. I had nausea when I started buprenorphine but that stopped after a couple of weeks only to return. I have totally lost my appetite

I’m confused…
Hi, I’m confused about something. Did the Oramorph I’ve taken for years cause my RLS or is it keeping it from being way worse? I also used Buprenorphine patches for a while for another condition but it didn’t help the RLS. Thanks.

Buprenorphine is not that harmless
dear (some) forum members, please stop recommending buprenorphine as if it were nothing. a serious side effect can be (if not even: will be) neuroinflammation (microglia-mediated inflammatory response) because it blocks the kappa opioid receptor, unlike other opioids. this is serious. massive hyperalgesia

Buprenorphine SL vs transdermal
Hi. Can anyone weigh in on their experience or knowledge of the advantages or disadvantages of the different formulations of buprenorphine? I understand there is a risk of severe tooth decay with the sublingual formulation but is that only in the drug-addicted population? Has anyone had personal experience

Buprenorphine Patches
Morning all. I’ve just started my second week on Buprenorphine Patches. So far they’ve not helped with the pain but have caused a lot of nausea. It’s a low dose 5mg to start so maybe an higher dose will be needed ? I have a friend who’s been down a similar path yo me and has now been prescribed (by

Antibiotics and RLS
I am posting this information in case it may help someone else on the site. About two weeks ago I developed a patch of cellulitis on my right cheek. I was prescribed antibiotics by my GP. I am allergic to penicillin and so I was given Clarithromycin and metronidazole as a seven-day course. After
