Question for Ellfindoe or Joolsg about Gabapentin please
I have written before, but a quick recap. I was on Ropinirole for around 17 years, starting off with 0.12mg nightly (when I have to confess I thought it was the most wonderful drug in the world as it completely stopped my RLS) to more recently when I have been taking 0.50mg and 0.25mg during the day

Headaches
Hi everyone I suffered a head injury in October 2020. So just over a year ago and I’ve fortunately recovered quite well. I have suffered and still suffer severe headaches but not as frequent as before. They begin with a pain in the base of my skull/neck and then seem to radiate through my head causing

Can a soft tissue injury exacerbate PMR symptoms?
Seeking a bit of guidance from you lovely people - I injured my left tricep on Monday afternoon and went to A&E on Tuesday as the pain was unbearable. No bones broken and the tendons are intact. It’s my left shoulder that has PMR. The pain in my neck, shoulder and upper arm on my left side is so excruciating

Mitazipine
I was in sertraline for a few years, I found it the best one after citalopram and fluoxetine absolutely did not agree with me whatsoever, sending me on wild binges, finding myself doing things I would never normally do and finally giving in to suicidal thoughts. Sertraline made me feel so much happier

Post laproscopy - pain and confusion about what next…
Hi everyone, I had my lap a week ago now and they found and removed endometriosis from my pelvis, particularly on the left side and fitted a Mirena coil. When I came round from surgery I was told I wouldn’t be having a follow up appointment as the surgeon had got it all with the laser and that combined

New and struggling
Hi all, I'm new to the group. This is a good way to while away my insomnia. I was diagnosed with degeneration of the spine when I was 11. It ended my dream of dancing for a living. I remained quite functional most of the time but the clock was ticking on having a family. We had our daughter in 2016

Am I being ignored?
Hi, I’m new here but I’m in desperate need to some guidance. For a few years now I have suspected I have endometriosis and am just in more and more pain as time goes on.

Paper on meds that help DA withdrawal

Minoca and still have chest pains
Newbie here. I had a MINOCO at the end of July, I had been getting chests pains for months. Nothing showed up except for troponin raised levels. My blood pressure is always low, I am not overweight, I don't smoke or drink, so I'm not on any medication, except for a 10mg statin, which I have just stopped

Heart medication and CBD oil
Hi - prior to my heart attack and stent placement I took CBD oil on a regular basis - 2-3 drops twice daily. I did sone research, joined a CBD group and am now a member of the admin team. Whilst taking CBD I was able to stop my pain meds and tapered and eventually came off my anti-depressant medication
