does an rls friendly diuretic exist?
I have bad swollen legs which my GP thinks is caused by excess fluid It probably comes from a combination of my RLS medicines ( Pregabalin 250 mg and 2mg Neupro patch) plus a recent knee replacement operation. To get rid of this excess fluid my GP upped my normal 50mg Spironolactone dose to 75 mg.

A post trip run
I don’t find it easy to get off a train after being away for a few days and get out and run. I do find it easy to make excuses and put it off! This time I pulled on my shorts and top and got out and started running, just to see what I could manage. It went alright and the sunshine and lovely trees

Yesterday I had a half hour session with my medical qigong teacher and he took me through all the organ health practice forms that I already know to show me modifications for my new heart condition. Also gave me two practices that will be helpful to my lungs and heart. This morning I'll be teaching my

More Methadone?
I have had RLS for decades with real relief pretty well only from the now - forbidden Pramipexole. I have been on Methadone 15 mg at bedtime for about 2 years now which has been pretty good, allowing me approximately 5 hours of sleep some nights. Recently it has worked less well. I’ve been up frequently

Apomorphine Pump
Has anyone had experience with the Apomorphine Pump? I was dianosed with Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease 18 years ago (2005) and have many add-on problems that have a great influence on my daily life. (Orthostatic hypotention, ruptured major iliopsoas tendon, burning mouth and tongue syndrome

Experimenting on myself, don't all try this at home
This is long but I wanted to share this in the hope this inspires someone, some may think I'm crazy but I just had to find out. I have HOCM, its quite mild and has been so for years. It's hereditary. Im in my 50's . Was sort of bullied by cardiologists to take Beta blockers and have been on a low dose

Ubiquinol
Hello ladies, so I should hopefully be starting my first round of IVF next week staring with a AFC scan as soon as AF arrives. Do you think it would be worth upping my dosage of ubiquinol CoQ10 between now and egg collection? Not sure if it might be too late. I’m currently taking 100mg a day. Thanks

Personal Sleep PR
This is the first time I have passed 8 hours of sleep in the almost 8 years of keeping track. I usually score 80 or 81. 89 is an all time record for me. So what happened. First off, I could feel my RLS earlier in the evening. Little things were beginning to trigger my RLS, nothing strong but

Dopamine Agonist withdrawal syndrome
On what would have been Robin Williams' 72nd birthday, a reminder of how dangerous dopamine agonists can be. If you mention DAWS to a UK doctor, they have no idea what we are talking about. They mistakenly say it only happens if the patient had Impulse Control Disorder. It can affect anyone taking these

Tingling sensation in my fingers and hands. Is it caused by augmentation ?
Hello everyone my RLS is getting worse. I live in Mexico. I wanted everyone to know before I got started because there are certain drugs like buprenorphine I can’t get here. I’m finding that my arms and hands have this funny tingling in them when I go to bed. No jumping like my legs. It’s just a tingling

Tortuous
I'm now in my 4th week (feels like years!) of reducing Ropinirole and taking Pregabalin. GP prescribed 50mg which I quickly increased to 100 and I am now taking that with 0.5mg Ropinirole instead of 0.15mg. The moment I sit and 'settle' (no chance!)for the evening off go the legs. I'm already very low

Advice on codeine v tramadol
I'm hoping for some advice because my doctor and the neurologists have been no help. For the past few years I have been taking 50mg tramadol, 300mg Gabapentin and 50mg sertraline. Prior to this I managed to wean off Pramipexole. I haven't increased the dosage of any of my current meds because I had hoped

Cannabis and Restless Leg
Hi all, I was told recently that cannabis, in whichever form you choose, may be helpful in relieving restless leg. Do any of you try this with any success? I had a weed cookie last night, very low dose, and it SEEMED to help, but I had only reduced my Mirapexin, not refrained completely, so I'm not

IBS Anxiety
HelloI'm new to this and I can't believe how many people are suffering with IBS or similar. It's astonishing! I'm 65 and have been managing it for 15 years when it started at the age of 50. I've managed it quite well with food, supplements, trial and error, and realized some time ago that symptoms
