epilepsy and restless leg syndrome
She’s had no
head
injuries
but has suffered migraines since being a child. As RLS is a neurological disorder I’m wondering if there is a link? She had two seizures two hours apart a year and seven months ago that came out of the blue.

Internal Burning
Hi,I am new here. I am desperate for answers. I had a hysterectomy 21 years ago and it was only through recurrent UTI’s that I was eventually diagnosed with vaginal atrophy. I was put on Vagifem and a vaginal moisturiser but whereas my UTI’s stopped the intense burning ( as if someone had put a tube

Guanfacine and N-acetylcysteine (NAC-600 mg)
I recently posted a link to an article that talked about treating brain fog with a combination of Guanfacine, a prescription drug used for treating high blood pressure, and N-acetylcysteine (NAC-600 mg), which I gather is an over-the-counter supplement. Has anyone here had any experience with either

struggling with neck pain :( help pls!
I first was diagnosed with fibromyalgia back in 2020 when I started having aches and pains in neck shoulders feeling tired all the time, funny heads as I used to call them, memory issues, stressed all the time and really deflated about everything. I could never relax and always overthink everything.

Cervical spinal stenosis suddenly got a lot worse. Diagnosis was four years ago
Passing neighbours helped by loading my unconscious bleeding body into a car and taking me to Wrexham A and E where, because of my
head
injuries
I was sent by ambulance eight hours later to Stoke hospital.

Pregnancy pain relief
Wondering if anyone has any tips for pain relief while pregnant? I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant and today I've really struggled with pain across my entire back, to the point I've laid in bed sobbing tonight. My usual go to would be deep heat/voltarol/ibuprofen gel but none are able to be used during

Painful sciatica
Hi. I have spondylosthesis (bulging disc), L5 area and, having seen a surgeon at the Whittington Hospital, am now on a waiting list for facet joint injections. For the past several months I've had sciatica -- pain down the backs of both legs, worse when it rains (I can tell when it's going to rain) and

Medical Nightmare with no explanations
Again more MRIs and now they have said that they have looked at all of my scans since 2009 in an MDT meeting and there’s abnormalities still showing the same, however they are now saying that they are older than 2009 and the
head
injury in 2009 caused no
injuries
!

RLS newbie
Hi all, I was hoping you could give me some advice about where to begin, as I'm finding reading through the posts, although very helpful, also overwhelming! I have self diagnosed as having RLS for about 20 years. It has been relatively ignorable until the last few years. Now it is affecting my sleep
