hi there, last year I had a closed angle glaucoma. I had little warning, thr blood pressure in my right eye suddenly shot up to 80 and I was temporarily blind in that eye. I had a week’s stay in hospital and an operation to bring the pressure down. It is amazing that I have retained quite a bit of

Ropinirole should be banned.
I suffer from severe RLS. It started around 2010, once or twice a week. Within the past two years it has gotten worse. Now it is every night and sometimes starts when I am just sitting in the early evening. The first medication I was prescribed was Ropinirole. It reduced the symptoms for about three

Been smelling smoke for a week after bonfire.
Constantly smelling smoke when the wind changed direction as I burnt some conifer branches. It's happened before but never continued for this long. Cut my nose hair, tried nasal sprays, irrigation etc; to no effect. Only thing that helps is Olbas oil which counters the stink. Googled it and it came

Rls living hell
Hi I've been suffering from rls badly for around 5 years and have been very low and depressed because of this condition, I mainly suffer very bad at night with the crawling feeling and the constant need to move my limbs, thus started in my legs but now has moved to my arms. I just pray for something

New Diagnosis: Right Eye Normal Pressure Glaucoma.
Apparently two yrs ago at my previous eye test with photos of the back of my eye, a note was made that there seemed to be something going on with the optic nerve. I wasn't informed. At my last eye test the new optician reported the same and told me of the previous photo. She referred me to the hospital

Ectropion eye
Has anyone any advice on ectropion eye? I have glaucoma and diplopia and have been advised to have an operation to tighten the bottom eyelid. This is on my good eye, so I am rather nervous about it.

EYES DRY, ITCHY, BURNING, TEARING
My eyes have changed over the last few weeks. They are so dry, but I use eye gel. Tearing at random, blurry when reading. Feels scratchy and like there's somethinf in them. Eye drops help for less than an hour. When reading I find myself inadvertently closing my right eye, left eye is better. Yesterday

THC Gummies
THC gummies worked for the first couple of times but, last time I took it I was super paranoid and definitely not sleeping. It’s not for me . To date, I’m taking one Pramipexole and one 12.5 ambien day night and sleep 4-5 hours and experience mild to no symptoms the following day. So far so good

Success with clonidine as a supplementary medication
Sharing some recent success. I have taken pregabalin 300mg for a number of years but have also supplemented it with a very small dose of clonazepam (between 0.125 and 0.5m) I started weaning off clonazepam approx 3 months ago because it's not desirable to take benzodiazepines long term (i'm weaning

THC/CBD/CBN
Has anyone used THC,CBD,CBN for restless leg or insomnia. I am just starting to try in hopes to either get off of the drugs I am on for RLS/Insomnia which are low dose pregabalin and klonopin. Just curious about peoples experience and whether there are any benefits.

Pegasys --> Besremi and HCT
Hi, What a great forum - thanks to you all for contributing. I'm a 37 year old male - diagnosed with PV 3 years ago. I recently made the jump from Pegasys to Besremi. I was on 135ug every 9 days without need of supporting venesection (at least for the last 8 months or so). Since switching medication

Longtime glaucoma patient
Hi. I just wanted to say that my experience with Glaucoma has been over many, many years. I’ve been very fortunate to have had treatment, isoptocarpine which was horrible. I have Myopia and these drops made it almost impossible to see for any length of time. They were to reduce the eye pressure quickly
