Surely not Augmentation already!
Hi again everyone, I've been on ropinirole now for two weeks and I've gone from being able to sit at work most of the morning/day without standing to work, to some symptoms in the mornings; to yesterday, standing most of the time I was at work! I had RL all afternoon as well and nothing seemed to control

thank you.....
Just want to say as a new member that your discussions have been soothing to me--just knowing I am not going crazy, that these ups and downs are common. Do I like it? no, but I can better accept the fact that now my buttocks hurt. It's just one side, which I thought was never PMR, but who knows.

Rytary and reduced absorption due to food
* Green Tea and Rytary* I noticed that if I take Green Tea (Matcha and Sencha mix) with Rytary, there is poor absorption. Any such experiences? ——- Those of you who are on Rytary, can you please share the experience with food. How do you manage, and how do you space it. I just started Rytary last

Tortured by a Butterfly -- Dermatology and extreme sun reactions
Hi Guys, Got my Rheumatology letter yesterday, which threw me in multiple directions (and upset me about the breast explant situation again -- but I'll save that for another day). Because forefront on my mind is my Dermatology appt this afternoon. Yesterday, I provoked 2 bright red, painful burns

Anybody advise, recommend, website/ supplier to order syringes, needles etc for self med. b12?
Given a pack of 10 B12 ampoules, and seen all the advice re two needle sizes ( for withdrawing b12, then injecting), suggested 2 ml syringe, even if 1 ml b12, swabs, even ampoule breaker. But connections to Amazon webpages no longer working , so can’t see specific recommendations or even suppliers’ names

Thank God! Natural Supplements Making RLS Much More Manageable!
Nearly two years ago my RLS intensified beyond just the horribly annoying need to move my legs while sitting or trying to sleep. Suddenly I was suffering with sensations of pressure, heat, popping, crackling, and shooting pain in my legs and feet. Severe cramps in both legs and feet every morning usually

Switching from Ropinirole to Mirapexin.
I am currently taking 2.5mg of Ropinirole a night for severe Rls. Because of my symptoms my GP is changing me to Mirapexin. He has put me on a dose of 1 Tablet at night of 0. 008. I am trying ir tonight but I'm concerned this is is no way equivalent dose of ropinirole. Because I was splitting my dose

New (not great) experience.
Hi, Woke up at 6 this morning in AF. Took 200mg of flecainide. (PIP). At 8 back in what seems nsr but pulse at 125bpm. I've never experienced this before. My normal pulse rate is around 65. Wondering if I should call 111 or wait for an hour or so. (been at 125 for 30 minuts already). Bit worried - any

Severe painful dry eyes. Diagnosed with Meibomian gland dysfunction.
I am a vegetarian and thinking of consuming Flaxseed oil on a daily basis. Is okay to do so? I still take Levothyroxine and have to try and manage it by using lubricating eye drops and hot compresses. But every few days I still get gritty dry eyes, red and painful. I read somewhere that consuming Flaxseed
