I developed strange heavy lower leg sensation in 10/23; always been very healthy active 54 year old female. This issue coincided with a lower back flare up after playing pickle ball. MRI revealed a small disc bulge at L4-5 but no one was sure if these symptoms were related. I also got brain MRI

GP Levothyroxine review appointment today
Today I had my appointment with the GP to review my Levothyroxine. He introduced himself as the GP that I am registered with not the one I was told I would see. He is Indian and even using the microphone that bluetooths directly into my hearing aids he was very difficult to understand. Several times

Any suggestions on timing of dosage?
Dear All, Firstly, thanks for all the fantastic information I've found here. Having been on Pramipexole for 20+ years, I'd been finding that it was becoming less effective and found/joined the RLS:UK website and found that I shouldn't be taking it all! As a result of what I've been reading here, I

Breathless on period
So I have noticed that on my periods I get exceptionally breathless doing normal things like brushing my teeth or talking. It only seems to appear when I start bleeding and stops when my period does. This is new for me, and honestly felt a bit wheezy when I went upstairs. I bleed super heavy but my iron

DO YOUR RESEARCH. Cure yourself.
PXN21 has worked wonders for all my symptoms. I have been having symptoms of Parkinson’s/IBS for several years now which have progressively gotten worse. Now mind you I’ve never been diagnosed with anything, the key thing is catching all these things early and treating them, not just treating the symptoms

Does anyone have any direct experience of Targinact?
Hi Everyone, this is my first post but I've been reading everything on this forum for a while now. I'm in real trouble with augmentation after taking ropinirole for 11 years. I successfully tapered off and was completely free of it by April 2023, however the RLS remained severe, and in October I decided

Aspirin-induced gastritis and gastrointestinal bleeding
I haven’t taken an 81 mg coated aspirin every day for 18 years. Last month my doctor noticed that my iron level had dipped down to 16 from 64 in previous years. She suggested that I was having internal bleeding. Over the last couple years I’ve lived with stomach pain. Often just a two out of 10

Ropinerol withdrawal.... what now?
So after 15 years I'm off Requip. I'm now 4 days in with zero meds for RLS. A few contradictions of how long it takes to fully leave your system, however, I was hoping that my RLS would magically disappear along with my meds. Unfortunately, thats not been the case. Cannabis didn't help, it just left

My journey to date
I want to thank everyone who has taken the time and interest to advise me on dealing with my RLS. To update, I am fortunate to live near a clinic that deals with movement disorders and have begun seeing a specialist who treats RLS. She has prescribed gabapentin- didn’t work- and now has me on pregabalin

Further info/details below the results Inflammation
