No meds….yet
Also on
iron
tablets, B12, Vit D, Magnesium. Next stop Ropinole. I’m scared to take this as there appears to be so many negative stories including weight gain and nausea. Any advice??!

Update- I no longer take Dipyridamole
The Urge to move -
Iron
helps me and I continue to take Ferrous Bisglycinate daily at night. Vitamin D helps me keep my ferritin levels up with ease. If
iron
is the issue, no drugs are going to work until the
iron
issue is resolved! Insomnia - seems to have gotten under control by itself.

Iron Infusions for RLS
Another research paper showing
iron
infusions of Ferric Carboxymaltose improves RLS. We now have the uphill battle of convincing our GPs and neurologists.

Iron Bisglycinate
I am in the US and looked at a number of 25 mg of
iron
bisglycinate products (gentle
iron
) on Amazon. All listed there percent of daily value (US) at 139%. Most did not list their elemental
iron
but two did and they listed it as 25 mg. So my apologies!

Guidance for RLS
I'm also curious to know if anyone has tried
iron
infusions? I read a study that said this has proven helpful. Thanks in advance for any tips and advice.

Can't find proper thyroid medication
My vitamins are all optimal as well (vtiamin D,
iron
, ferratin, b12, selenium). I've also had my adrenals tested and the levels are normal. when taking t4 only or t4 + t3 I feel the most "normal" but I have TONS of hair shedding, and it doesn't stop.

Infusion at Sheffield
Hi all, I seem to recall someone here saying they managed to get an
iron
infusion at Sheffield and if that's you I'd really appreciate it if you could clarify which Hospital and department.

Anagrelide in UK and in the USA😱
More recently, and only since her Anagrelide has been reduced from 21 a week to 14 a week she has not had the big bleeds, but has been told she is losing blood from somewhere, hence the regular RBC transfusions and
iron
infusions. She easily drops around 2 points a week of her Hgb.

'Malabsorption' - what do doctors mean exactly?
Hello, When reading about causes of deficiences such as
iron
, folate, B12 etc. the medical information (from whichever source) lists the causes and malabsorption is always one of them.

TSH up after Synthroid increase
13.8 (10.6-33.8 umol/L)
Iron
Saturation .23 (.13-.50) Ferritin 40 (15-247 ug/L) Magnesium .96 (.64-.98 mmol/L) No Vit D done at this time I am just so perplexed that adding more T4 increased my TSH and lowered FT3 & 4?

Does anyone have any direct experience of Targinact?
My
iron
/ferritin/saturation levels are all being checked with a view to a Ferinject infusion, and my psychiatrist is kind, caring and knowledgeable, so I feel I'm in good hands. But I'm still terrified and wonder how much Targinact I'll need to take to get the RLS under control.
