Question re: Sleeping meds for insomnia?
Hi: I just moved from Boston to California and my new primary is a PA who at my 2nd visit in 2 weeks (very taxing, a bit overkill & ? Insurance abuse) - typically I saw my old primary once a year=wellness, flushot etc! Anyhow original cancer was in 2010–hate opioids so I’ve dealt with post surgical pain

Camping with panic attacks
It's about 68 degrees with a cool breeze. I'm supposed to be camping. I told my friends I'd meet them at this spot that's an hour and a half away. Kids are looking forward and so is my wife. I was going to white knuckle it and just go. All it took was my wife saying " We're not going to get there until

Anyone here have obstructive sleep apnea too?
I have OSA along with my RLS. Since sleeping with a CPAP machine hooked up to my face is already difficult, adding worsening RLS to the mix has left me exhausted. Just wondering if any of you struggle with both conditions? My Dad had both conditions.....in his day there was no CPAP machine, and I

Trying to get used to Cpap mask
Hi, I’m mainly on the thyroid page of health unlocked but I saw someone had mentioned sleep apnoea and this site so I strolled over. I also suffer from polymyalgia which is inflammation of the muscles and am on pain patches and co-codamol, unfortunately the patches fall off in hot weather and co-codamol

Struggle to use CPAP
I struggled with poor sleep all my life, but am also a loud snorer. Many mornings I was convinced that I’d had zero sleep, but would be told I’d been snoring all night. Wife often moved to another room & even kids complaining from their rooms. So I went to the doc & had several overnight sleep studies

Flecainide - from PIP to 2x100/day now want to get off of it
Hi everyone, My first post on here. I'm reaching out because I've had some issues with Flecainide that my doctors don't acknowledge and I know I'm not crazy. I've had PAF for 30 years. Would have an event maybe once a year or slightly more. Then I gained weight and got severe obstructive sleep apnea

Restless legs keeps coming back
My mum has suffered from rls since about 8 years, she's been on many medications and all will work for a while. Recently she was diagnosed with sleep apnea and was using cpap which made all her rls symptoms go away however after 2 months it has returned really bad. I took her to the gp and he has prescribed

Sources for Masks?
I'm not sure this type of post should be made...moderators, feel free to delete, close or let me know if that's the case. I'm wondering if there are 'aftermarket' sources for CPAP masks. I'm guessing not. All sources I am finding online have what appears to be a vendor locked down price (ie. $154.00)

CPAP and Inhalers
I have found that I need to use my Fostair Nexthaler just before I go to bed for the CPAP machine to function properly. I prefer to use the inhaler with my evening meal but this means that the CPAP machine misbehaves at night and tries to float me up to the ceiling. It seems I need to use a inhaler

TBG, Reverse T3 & SHBG Issues - What Does This Mean?
Greetings and happy July all. I have Hashi's confirmed by ultrasound and blood antibodies. I am not being treated as my family doctor and encrinologist say my blood work does not justify it. I have every symptom of hypo, I mean every symptom, and I also believe I have fatigued adrenals big time. But,

Pacemaker Update
It’s 6 weeks since the LV lead review/revision and it took a lot more out of me than I had anticipated or planned for. I had the pacemaker check yesterday and YEAH! everything is working and no twitches. Everything feels so much comfortable in my arm and shoulder and I haven’t experienced the tightness

Never been more determined
I was recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. This has given me a wake up call to lose weight sensibly to attempt to put my diabetes into remission. I’ve just seen a helpful dietician who has put me on a two day restrictive diet of 500 Cala. Today is my first restrictive day - I’ve chosen Sunday’

Docetaxel and breathing problems?
After first Docetaxel/Cabazitaxel infusion - 10 days later, I couldn't breath and was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. Was there for 4 days .... I had my second infusion 14 days ago and am still having a hard time catching my breath. I can't walk to far without stopping and straining to breath

Sleep apnoea and RLS
My hematologist has recommended I go back to the respiratory and sleep physician for a review of my sleep apnoea. About 5 years ago he dismissed me after losing 30 kilos and didn't need the CPAP machine any longer as it had improved so much. He wonders if Sleep apnoea has a bearing on my RL. Any comments
