Well the acupunture doesn't seem to be helping at this stage, have stopped it and trying reflexology and Low level laser therapy. The GP put me on 20mg Norspan patch from 15....it didn't seem to change the effect on my legs at the higher dose but it made me quite nauseated and sweaty and tired on higher

High Dose CL ?
I am often puzzled by the high dose her neurologist/ movement specialist has her taking. I have not found anyone taking this high of dose: 8am: 25/100 CL x 3 11am: 25/100 CL x3 2pm: 25/100 CL x3 5pm: 25/100 CL x3 8pm: 25/100 CL x3 11pm: 25/100 CL x 1 but then a Rytary along with 3mg Melatonin.

Hangover
75 and been a lifelong social drinker but for 18 months averaged no more than 10 units per week as I couldn't take the hangovers. Now if I have more than 4 units alc at night I need to sleep most of next day. Is this due to liver not functioning.? I have regular blood tests and no liver, kidney or other

Prepping for Round 2
Hello ladies! I’m planning to start a second IVF cycle in January (when I’ll turn age 40!) and feeling hopeful. First cycle was BFN with short protocol so we are trying long protocol this time with Nafarelin (Synarel) nasal spray and Menopur. Has anyone had luck with this combo? Also we had the option

Got my bipolar 1 diagnosis!
Thank you everyone for giving me support every time I write here (which is a lot) I just got my bipolar 1 diagnosis and feel so relieved. Been desperate to know what’s wrong with me for years, passed around to many psychiatrists and now have it in writing. It was really important for me to know after

Bunion operation
Hi, I am having a bunion operation and hammer toe correction next week (minimal invasive surgery). I'm currently on 3.75mg prednisone. Should I follow sick day rules, maybe increase to 5mg, or first discuss with surgeon and anaesthetist? Thank for this very helpful forum.

Orphenadrine
My hwp had been using ophenadrine some time ago and stopped because of fears around using anticholinergics. However, his unrelenting battle with sciatica has me wondering if it might not be worth taking the risk. He is a well person in every other way, but the pain has him battling to do exercise. He

Non Alcoholic Liver Disease
I was diagnosed with Non Alcoholic Liver Disease Cirrhosis. Am I allowed to drink any type of alcohol or not. I’ve never been much of a drinker. Special Occasions Only. Normally I would drink WKD. Is that still okay to drink or should I stop altogether?
