Augmentation - Can Aripiprazole reduce symptoms
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.2147/NSS.S421189 An interesting article on alleviating the symptoms of dopamine agonist augmentation with Aripiprazole. Aripiprazole is an atypical anti psychotic and there are a few reports from 2010 that showed it might help RLS. Sadly only 4 people took part

Pramipexole - Confused
Probably being a bear of little brain about this, but wanted to ask: I am currently taking 300mg of Pregabalin every night for RLS. It is kind of ok, but has not helped with weight gain or mental clarity, and doesn’t always work! I get RLS during the day too. I have MS too and so get up 3 or 4

An exhaustive study that offers hope that some types of activities can improve symptoms even as disease progresses

Autism and RLS
I work with autistic young people. One young man shows all the symptoms of RLS which appears sensory and autistic in nature but wondering if anyone knows of any links between autism and RLS and more importantly how to support this young man who is non verbal. Having read about the dopamine link, wondering

Clinical severity in PD is determined by decline in cortical compensation
In Parkinson's disease, the cerebral cortex can take over tasks from a deeper part of the brain that is damaged, and where cells that make dopamine have been lost. That degree of compensation by the cerebral cortex determines how many complaints people have. This is evident from a publication by the

repairing dopamine receptors
Off requip now for a couple of months after 20+ years and on gabapentin 700mg. Wondering now about "repairing dopamine receptors"? Can someone point me in the direction of info on this? What is the effect of "un-repaired dopamine receptors"? Thanks!!

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

Switching from Ropinrole to eg Gabapentin
Hi everyone, I’m wondering if someone can advise about going from dopamine agonists - specifically Ropinrole - to the gabapentin type of medication ? My mum is suffering terrible drowsiness (as well as many other symptoms) and I think it’s time to try to do this. it’s not the first time I’ve asked

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

Newly Discovered Trigger of Parkinson’s Upends Common Beliefs
Degeneration of dopaminergic neurons is widely accepted as the first event that leads to Parkinson’s. But the new study suggests that a dysfunction in the neuron’s synapses — the tiny gap across which a neuron can send an impulse to another neuron — leads to deficits in dopamine and precedes the neurodegeneration

Times change, observation improves, reality changes.
”Abstract: Parkinson’s disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease and yet the early pathophysiological events of the condition and sequences of dysfunction remain unclear. The loss of dopaminergic neurons and reduced levels of striatal dopamine are descriptions used interchangeably

Management of Parkinsons Disease
Hello, friends! Since my super brain is all fired up today, I thought I'd give y'all a lecture. Death and impairment of Dopaminergic Nerons in the Substantia Nigra is what causes Parkinsons Disease. How that condition comes about can be from various sources, including the following and probably more

Kratom anti-depressant, anti-psychotic, anti-anxiety herb!
I've recently come across an herbal suppliment that has realy helped me. If you research it you'll find that it has some potential for abuse. It effects opioid receptors. Just like opiod meds. For pain you take a large dose. In large doses it also has a sedating effect. That is were the addiction lays

dystonia help
My mum has had Parkinsons for 6 years now. She started sublingual B1 therapy 3 months ago, and I have seen an improvement in her sleeping, urinary frequency and energy. But her biggest problem is dystonia. Her right hand is clenched, if we try to manipulate it in any way she shakes. I have tried a hand
