The best RLS solution used for the last 300 years
If you search in the NIH or Johns Hopkins Hospital web sites, you can see information about RLS. Below is one thing I found after realizing that the codeine cough syrup I had been prescribed was 100% effective in eliminating RLS overnight. Instead of getting up twice/night I sleep 8 hours without interruption

A Procedure for RLS
Some time ago there was a suggestion that a flow chart of what to do if you think you have RLS was proposed........I felt that this would be a mammoth effort to write initially and then to maintain. However I thought some more and I offer a starting point which is just a simple list of actions in

Positive Preliminary Trial Results: NAC resulted in significantly more dopamine neuron survival. published online 2016 Jun 16
The results of this small, preliminary study demonstrate for the first time a potential direct effect of NAC, N-Acetyl Cysteine, on the dopamine system in PD patients, and this observation may be associated with positive clinical effects (about 12%). Here are a few details published from this earlier

RLS ? Magnesium
Jafta Hi I am new to this forum. Just reading through your posts and i feel sympathy for all you. I suffered from RLS since the age of 25 ( Am now 53). I saw a neuro doc about 16 years ago, who had me on Dopamine / levodopa. After reading about the side effects of the drugs, I stopped using them and

Has anyone tried this? I got info on my email saying it's a gadget that emits magnetic frequencies of low intensity in the head which stimulate the natural production of dopamine. Actipulse.com. is this a scam?

Stop Smoking This is my daily update on my decision to stop smoking, and my subsequent experiences. I had smoked for around fifty years. Before my recent decision to stop, I had been resigned to smoking for the rest of my life. The reasoning behind that stems from two bad experiences I suffered

I've defeated my loss of levodopa benefit that happens after eating protein
To start with, an update, I am back on the MP, no Sinemet at least unless I hit another obstacle unforeseen. I hurt myself today eating some delicioooous bbq beef. It was soon after getting my dopamine right and I had been feeling pretty good actually. The beef protein began to rapidly bring me down

Anatomy of a Myth
[*Note: 'Willful dupes' comprise that segment of a given group of people (take the HU PD forum group for an example) who believe ANY hope is better than no hope. They are the segment that is so desperate for some sense of hope that they willingly accept as fact any 'hope' that is dangled before them

My RLS which is relatively mild but worsening-for which I blame the HRT I am taking for osteoporosis-comes and goes. I probably get three weeks on, two weeks off. How does this fit with what we know of the condition being to do with dopamine release? Thank you A

This is for those of us who have sleep problems.
Which is probably a large portion of RLS people. HOWEVER, not all sleep problems are caused by RLS, only exacerbated by RLS. (Case in point - People who do not have RLS also have sleep problems.) For instance, if your brain is low in serotonin, the most important of the brain neurotransmitters

BBC2's Horizon 9pm last night was about dopamine overload in the brain and the use of anti-psychotic drugs to reduce it.
After watching this I'm wondering If this means that RLS sufferers should avoid anti-psychotics? I was put on Motivil (spelling maybe wrong) for suspected IBS, at the time when my RLS was getting worse around 10 years ago whilst on a low dose of pramipexole. I only took the Motivil for a couple of weeks

Holiday from dopamine agonist
I have had RLS for 15 years. Has severe augmentation on Pramipexole. Tried all the opiates and could not take them. I'm now on Neupro patch 1mg and Gabapentin 300mg at bedtime. Also just started Klonopin o.5mg at night. I have read that some of you take a holiday from the dopamine agonist in order to

Seroquel question
Hi all. I'm new here. This is my first post. I was diagnosed with Parkinson's over a year ago and am not on any medication. A few months ago I started having visual hallucinations. My doctor prescribed Seroquel. I can't quite follow the logic. Maybe I've got it all wrong, but if Seroquel is a dopamine
