Mannitol and Dopamine Levels
My husband started 1 tblsp of mannitol per day a month ago. He responded immediately with a lot more energy, mobility, cognitive clarity, balance....many improvements. He’s had Parkinson’s for 14 years, and at this point any spike in his dopamine levels causes hallucinations. If he gets too much he

Amantadine for fatigue/spasms
There was a post on here recently about Amantadine and I commented on how I took it 4 or so years back. Was one of the first drugs I took for AMN once I'd found a decent neurologist who was open to prescribing anything that wasn't Baclofen or Valium. Amantadine is an antiviral, was effective against

Getting there.....
Well after 13 months of waiting for a neurologist, turns out it’s not restless legs.... I have a tic disorder & ADHD!! So hospital putting plan together but they think I’ll need dopamine therapy and congenital therapy. If that doesn’t work I’m sawing them off!!!

IV iron infusion and questions
Hello again everyone! You might remember me, the one trying to get off of ropinerole because, in addition to augmentation issues, it also suppresses prolactin, a hormone necessary to produce and maintain breastmilk. I've had a hell of a time trying to withdraw from it, and I have visited a neurologist

Adding pressure is reducing my symptoms
I've been taking Dopamine for the last 6 months and it is helping immensely. If my legs still act up after lots of exercise or too much sugar, I have recently found relief by putting pressure on my right upper buttock. Used a bean bag (the ones for your neck) it's got good weight and the beads conform

I need a doctor who will listen to me!
I am infuriated. I am experiencing augmentation after 4 years on ropinirole. I experience severe RLS at least every other night and consequently do not get any sleep at all. The RLS has even spread beyond my legs. I finally discovered (after some research on the RLS foundation website) that if I take

Is there an RLS/PLM medication suitable for Driving?
Hi. I'm a Train Operator and have suffered with RLS/PLM for many years. Until now I've been able to manage mild symptoms and only really suffered if I was over-tired or exhausted. The condition runs in my family and my Mum was prescribed Sinemet and my sister is taking Ropinirole. My symptoms have recently

Tyrosine
Has anyone taken tyrosine and had any positive outcomes? I already take magnesium Iron and B12. I have recently added Omega 3 but when looking into Pramipexole and dopamine I came across Tyrosine. It seems you can literally buy a supplement for anything these days but wondering if its worth looking

Neurologist for RLS- frustrated
I finally saw the neurologist for RLS. She wants me to take Horizant, and balked at giving me low dose a Tramadol because I’m breastfeeding. (Tramadol does not cause issues in breastfeeding, which is why unwanted to try it. EVERY other drug for RLS does.) Told me to stay on the ropinerole at .50 mg
