I suffered with this for years before I a friend said she had heard of this and found out the 'thing' was an actual syndrome with a name!!!
It is mere coincidence I suffered only last night and came across this website today. It's been interesting as dopamine is mentioned and I take an antidepressant containing the said drug! I will behaving a conversation with my GP soon. However,a colleague Told me recently that her elderly mum suffers

RLS has a secondary Symptom
Since my early teens ive always had what i described has fidgety feet and have never been able to sleep with my feet under the duvet...This was never a real issue, just something I lived with. In my late teens, early 20's this disease became a real nuisance and started to effect my hands. It was mentioned

I came across this article. What is the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease?
Scientists have accrued a large body of evidence confirming that mitochondria play an important role in the development of Parkinson’s disease. The most prominent symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are muscle trembling and weakness, which then progress to muscle immobility. These symptoms are the result

Dopamine / Narcotic Use..also falling asleep too early
Some of you have told me that you take your dopamine drugs early in the evening so you can sit through a movie, a dinner, a car ride..but you get so drowsy so you sleep by 8pm and than wake back up at 11am with either RLS or Insomnia.. My question is What can be done to keep someone sleeping all night

A possible cure for Fibroymalgia, please read this.
I have heard a lot of different opinions on what Fibromyalgia is and on possible treatments for it. But I recently found a book that is incredibly useful. It's called " The Fibromyalgia cure" it's by DR David Dryland. It basically says that fibromyalgia is caused by your body being in a constant

IF PD dopamine LOW, excess transporter proteins get dumped at cell reducing SIGNALLING, UNTIL CELL STOPS WORKING not dead maybe??
lewy bodies develop eventually on cell wall like a battery plates phosphate up when not functioning , explains unreliability of cell grafts and transplants, which don't last because the inactive non functioning cells " must be removed, like a dudd battery left connected in your car would inhibit

Does anyone have experience/information/opinion on the use of pickle juice to treat symptoms of PD?
Some PWP who use it on minor symptoms extoll its virtues. Some Doctors oppose it, as follows: " Pickle Juice is laden with salt and may leach dopamine from the nerve cells, thus worsening the condition." Under the heading of, "what can we lose", I have tried it on restless leg and minor cramping

Hi, has anybody been offered mirapex, which is given to Parkinsons sufferers.?
I have been reading some articles suggesting FMS is predominantly a neurological condition involving a reduction in dopamine. Chronic stress in childhood and throughout life or a physical cause e.g. car crash raising stress levels seems to be a precursor to FMS. Low levels of serotonin another neurotransmitter

Dopamine agonists have helped me so much.
After years of suffering and symptoms getting worse. Pain in my knees and hips from the jerking and having to sit on my hands at work as symptoms started in the afternoon I did some searching and found some research a professor had done with parkinsons medication being able to treat RLS symtoms I went

This and That RLS
Every self help RLS self help article and book says that If we have RLS going on, then we need to go to the doctor. There is a long running list of self help treatments that seem logical to do like hot baths, gentle stretches, rubbing down the legs... but we all know that it's not going to hold us

BocowoA trial update - A Lull before a Storm
Having enjoyed the first few hours in feeling totally free of all Parkinson’s Disease symptoms (while being completely free of Levodopa medication for over 15 days) the recent heat wave brought with it an unaccounted for twist; and coinciding with a shortfall in the main ingredient of BocowoA, I decided

In yesterday's Daily Mail: Wraparound magnet that may end the misery of restless leg syndrome which brings misery to millions of Britons
In yesterday's Daily Mail (copied verbatim): It sounds faintly ridiculous – but restless leg syndrome (RLS), characterised by uncomfortable twitches in the muscles of the legs, brings misery to millions of Britons. Some experts suggest that up to 15 per cent of the population could be affected, and

Trying to kid myself?
I know I've been going through a very bad patch recently, made worse by losing seven of my pet rats and a hamster, plus financial worries, on top of my pain problems etc. However, I realise that for a year I've been finding it harder to get involved with the things I used to find interesting - photography

I can only write from experience; Having gained so much of my collapsed nervous system back using BocowoA, and with what looks to me like the possibility of real hope on the horizon

Regarding the poll on PD and creativity ...
I read the following in the June/July issue of AARP Magazine and found it very interesting. "The Drugs: Levodopa and other dopamine agonists for Parkinson's disease Potential Perk: A surge in creativity The Evidence: For Parkinson's patients, tremors, loss of fine motor skills and muscle stiffness

Does anyone else suffer sensory problems with their RLS?
Hi, I’m a UK male in my mid 30’s and have been diagnosed with RLS about 2 years ago, my symptoms cover most of my body. I have all the classic fidgeting, uncomfortable sensations in my legs but also have a whole range of abnormal sensations all over my body, which include crawling, tingling, etc.
