iron infusions - how often and how many?
Hello dear fellow RLS sufferers, would like to find out about your experience with iron infusions. My mom just had one couple days ago. Her ferritin is 96, and saturation is 19.6. Today she was able to nap during the day, and she wasn't able to do that for a while because of RLS. She is also on Pramipexole

Is this a "normal" reaction to NDT?
Hi All, I'm trying to take NDT instead of levo, on which I was for around 20 years before, mostly on 75 mcg. My TSH went out of balance back in October 2022 and between then and now it's been a massive struggle. I increase my T4 slightly (even by 12,5 mcg) and get heart palpitations (heart was checked

Then had a week of antibiotics for toothache. Since then everyday is awful. Barely been out the house. Watching

Iron Blood Test Results
Hi i’m wondering if anyone could advise on my iron blood test. I had a recent thyroid test which showed Ferritin at 69.1 ug/L (range 30-150). This was through Thriva. I have since tested with Medicheck and my ferritin seems to have reduced. Am just wondering if there was a way I could increase ferritin

Over range T3 on combination T3/T4 medication
I posted several times last year about my 18 daughter who was very ill with chronic fatigue and severe bowel issues amongst other things. We discovered that her FT3 and FT4 were both very low and this was may have been the cause of many of her symptoms. In March last year her Medichecks tests came

What to expect from iron injections
I just started iron injections this week and will be having them once a week for six weeks. The nurse says the full effect of the iron takes place a month after the injections are finished. I was wondering when those of you who have received these injections got relief from RLS. I sure hope it doesn

No meds….yet
Hi New to this forum and RLS. Insomnia is crippling me and affecting everything from weight gain to cognitive abilities. I am desperately seeking sleep. GP has prescribed Quinine but little affect. Also on iron tablets, B12, Vit D, Magnesium. Next stop Ropinole. I’m scared to take this as there appears

Private/NHS Haematologist Referral to Access NHS Iron Infusion
Hi Guys Background is that for B12 to work its magic there must be sufficient iron in the body - even being slightly low in iron circa 18% deficient for example, can apparently hinder the healing effects of B12. Now, needless to say that for most GPs this is complete rocket science and mind blowing
