Interesting Tx for OIC
Sorry about the abbreviations. If you have Opioid-Induced Constipation (OIC) you might be interested in this little story. Tx means Treatment. I am currently on low-dose opioid for RLS--buprenorphine, but previously methadone--and I suffer from OIC. I have been taking a variety of laxatives

Restless Legs and Sleeping Tablets?
Tried the usual meds, Ropinirole, Amtriphyline, Pregabalin and Gabapentin - all useless. Having to stop one and gradually increase of the other has been tortuous. Hell. My mental health is suffering with the nightly and now early evening frequent, wired, compulsive urge to move. Also affecting my arm

HELP, PLEASE??!!
I just had a total knee replacement. For 3 years now buprenorphine has helped, but today I took hydromorphone for pain that my surgeon prescribed, Nexium that my family doctor recommended to take to keep the aspirin I have to take postop to keep from getting ulcers, and cyclobenzaprine. Unfortunately

when to take tablets
I have had my thyroid problem since 1992 and when I was just taking my thyroxine , when to take it was not a problem. Now I have atrial fibrillation and have to take 1/2 tablet of Apocard with a blood thinner 12 hours apart with food. I also have to take a beta blocker with food but not with the Apocard

Opioid induced loss of appetite
I'm currently taking Buprenorphine, but it seems to be causing a major loss of my appetite. Does anyone know if either Suboxone or Methadone are better in regard to appetite suppression? I can't tell you how important you all are to all of us trying to deal with titration off of these terrible DA's

I don't actually know what to do now.
I spoke to my GP this afternoon as I'm really struggling with what I believe is severe augmentation. I'm on pramipexole 2 tablets and 2 x 30/500g cocodamol each evening and have been taking cocodamol for years. The pramipexole was introduced last year as my GP ideally wanted me to stop taking the cocodamol

morphine alternative- any thoughts?
had a review with my GP and mentioned that I am still waking up around 2am with RLS, albeit more manageable than before. She gave me prescription for 'MORPHINE 5MG MODIFIED-RELEASE TABLETS' and said to give this a try to get me through the night. Anybody tried these and are they going to cause me issues

Eye drops
I've been diagnosed with ocular hypertension in both eyes and using Latanaprost drops at night. No real problems so far other than dry eyes later on in the day. My brother has Latanaprost too and he puts his drops in each eye but at the same time then presses on the tear duct for 2 minutes. The leaflet

hello my Ataxian friends, how are you all doing, ok I hope….. an update on myself. I had cataracts removed from both eyes a couple of years ago, my vision now is amazing, and the colors are beautiful, but the new lenses are long distance only, you don’t get a choice, so I still wear glasses for reading

Collagen Supplements
Hello all...does anyone have any advice or guidance please on whether taking collagen supplements is a good/bad idea alongside thyroid meds? My skin and hair are terribly dry and I was wondering if they might help. But I'm about worried about including them in the regime if there are contraindications

Blurry Vision
I have recently begun treatment - I'm just about 2 months in. I began with a Rituxan infusion once a week for 4 weeks. Concurrently, I began Calquence (acalabrutinib) and Allopurinal, which I will take indefinitely. Shortly after beginning treatment, I began experiencing blurred vision, which continues

Need your input
I am not asking for a medical opinion. I am hoping to get this soon after studying the Epstein Barr virus, MS and my symptoms. Have any of you been diagnosed with the Epstein Barr virus? Do any of you have tinnitus, iritis, vertigo and tendons? I started to have numbness in the back of my neck,

What To Do Next?
Hi Friends, First post here, although I've come back to this forum a few times. I'm at a spot where, even though I know it's untrue, I feel like I'm experiencing anxiety like no one has ever experienced it before (we all know the lonely feeling). I've been dealing with this for about a year an a half

Starting pregabalin
I have received a letter from Leicester hospital following my consultation with a neurology Registrar. I am on 1100mg of Gabapentin suggested dose of Pregabalin is 75mg at 6.00pm and 75mg 30 minutes before bedtime, can be uptitrated as required. Does this sound right? I have zero confidence in registrar

Clonazepam with Gabapentin
I've been following this forum for years. Thank you for your guidance. Years ago, a doctor prescribed pramipexole. It worked until it didn't. Weaned off and started Gabapentin. It helps somewhat. I take 600 + 600 three hours later, before bed, as suggested here. I recently met with a pulmonologist
