Hi everyone, It's been just over 3 years since I've been diagnosed with Graves Disease. After my first taper down of Carbimazole it wasn't long after dropping to 5mg EOD that I relapsed. My endocrinologist in the NHS said now it's happened once it's pretty much guaranteed it would happen again and again

No support from GP - need to change meds
Hi everyone and Merry Christmas! This is my first post to the forum and I'm sorry it's quite a long one. I'm hoping that someone can advise me about a change of medication. I've had RLS since a teenager (now in my 50s). I augmented on Pramipexole about 5 years ago and went through hell to stop. I tried

Long story ahead! It’s been a few weeks of ‘things’. In early November hubby complained his head was sore, which can mean all sorts since his stroke and not always being able to explain very well. Two days later he had a cluster of little blisters by his eye - shingles. A course of Aciclovar stopped

Question for Ellfindoe or Joolsg about Gabapentin please
I have written before, but a quick recap. I was on Ropinirole for around 17 years, starting off with 0.12mg nightly (when I have to confess I thought it was the most wonderful drug in the world as it completely stopped my RLS) to more recently when I have been taking 0.50mg and 0.25mg during the day

Can a soft tissue injury exacerbate PMR symptoms?
Seeking a bit of guidance from you lovely people - I injured my left tricep on Monday afternoon and went to A&E on Tuesday as the pain was unbearable. No bones broken and the tendons are intact. It’s my left shoulder that has PMR. The pain in my neck, shoulder and upper arm on my left side is so excruciating
