Magnesium type
I had my husband on Natural Calm which is the brand I take. His mood lifted, he was less tired etc etc. The problem is it affected his toilet habits! My friend said better to spray and take it trans-dermally but she's talking about Magnesium Chloride. Is that any good to take? I've only ever taken

FND or effects from severe Tinnitus
I'm new to FND and awaiting a EEG. My question is could I have FND? I've read so much in a short space of time and in some respects it has severe physical effects and on the other hand iit seems a very broad diagnosis. Here is my story.., I've had tinnitus several years, though in the last two years

Tinnitus and Cognitive effects (a follow up from my previous post)
I'm posting the following excerpts as they make some interesting reading about Tinnitus and Cognitive effects including how we respond to tinnitus.

Duloxetine to Mirtazapine
I been on Gabapentin from 23.02.24 and was previously on Pramipexole but had compulsive eating so asked to change. I stopped Pramipexole straight away and moved to Gabapentin and went from 300mg three times a day to 900mg three times a day and not really helped me. Spoke to Dr today who’s decided I should

Gabapentin
I've suffered with rls for over 30 years which has gradually got worse and worse. I'm now 74. After taking dopamine agonists for years, then tramadol, codeine and trying Kratom nothing was working and my doctor and neurologist would and could not prescribe anything else. In the past I had tried Pregabalin

Cold Turkey Update
Some of you are familiar with my story so far so I will make this brief. Three years ago I was taking 6mg Pramepexole. It took me nearly three years to taper the dose down to 1.25. My idiotic Neurologist said he would no longer treat me unless I stoped taking Pramipexole. He writes my prescriptions

taking trazodone with Gabapentin
First of all, I am so thankful for this community and the information I have found on here. I am finally getting relief from my RLS by taking gabapentin. My doctor has been way too conservative, starting me at 100mg and only increasing 100mg every week or two weeks. I am finally at a dosage of 1200mg

PLMD and withdrawal
Three weeks ago I stopped (after tapering slowly) gabapentin. I have also been reducing morphine sulphate from 8mg by .01mL every 5 days for the last three weeks. PLMD off the charts. I take 2mg lunesta every 3 nights -- and not more -- in the hopes of not getting addicted. Those nights are better

Pregabalin doseage
Hi, so i have now been on 150mg/day and i'm still experiencing very acute pain in my legs (quads mostly and calves) I have to get up and take ibruprofen plus co-codamol. As I am a PT and train a lot, it can be hard to separate what might be RLS vs training soreness. I first went on Ropinirole after

When should I take gabapentin and buprenorphine ?
I am planning on starting to withdraw from pramipexole. I have been prescribed gabapentin on a daily dose of 3 x 600mg daily to start taking as I withdraw off pramipexole. Should I start with 600mg for a few days, then add another 600mg dose say a week later, and then an additional 600mg a week after

Update on first visit with Neurologist
Well, finally landed on my feet with this neurologist. Her name is Dr.Phillips, she is in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada for anyone out here seeking a neurologist. For those not familiar with the health system structure in Canada, one can ONLY get in to see a Neurologist with a referral form a first

ropinirole for travel?
Until last July I had been taking 1mg of ropinirole 3 x daily. Since then I have successfully weaned myself off 2 mg during the day and only take 1 mg at night. Three months ago I began seeing a specialist and she has me on 75 mg 3x a day. My question: I am taking a trip to Europe in May and am worried

Completely lost
I’m 72 & in general good health (I think) except for Osteopenia and that I inherited Restless Legs from my mum. I started on .25mg Ropinirole 7 years ago which was like magic but it’s slowly increased to 3x.25mg per night. Perhaps not a big dose but I learned via this site it’s best to switch from Ropinirole

Pregabalin
Could someone please provide me with a link for the Mayo Clinic for up to date information on RLS. I have found one Mayo Clinic document that uses Pramipexole and Ropinirole as treatment for RLS. I thought these meds were not used anymore? Thank you.

Magnesium and Lavender
I take Magnesium capsules at night to sleep and since starting, I rarely feel RLS. If I'm particularly exhausted, I do feel it, in which case, I use Feather and Down Sleep butter. It stops it in seconds. It is lavender-based. There is a version that also has a dose of Magnesium in it. I'd surmise that
