A wonderful GP
I started seeing a new GP who started work in my local GP practice just before covid and she has been Marvellous, she's from South Africa and really listens to me and I've told her about the advice I've been getting here and she said that she is going to look further into buprenorphine being used here

Methadone adjustment/Horizant
Just started methadone 1.5 mL. I have a lot of trouble with drug side effects. After years on pregabalin more or less successfully treating my PLMD, it started making me nervous/anxious so I tried Tylenol #2 which made me very nervous and now I am trying the methadone. Years ago I tried 5mg of methadone

epilepsy and restless leg syndrome
I’m just wondering is there a link between RLS and epilepsy? My parents had RLS as do I and my siblings. My husband occasionally gets it too. There’s no history of epilepsy in either of our families but our daughter has started having tonic clonic seizures in her early 20’s, she has never drank , smoked

Buprenorphine and nausea
I will be switching from methadone to buprenorphine. How common is nausea as a side effect? Does it go away over time? My doctor gave me 60 anti-nausea pills, but insurance hasn't approved my switch to buprenorphine yet. Just wondering what to anticipate. I asked to change because of some cognitive

Long Covid
I have had RLS for decades and have had more help on this site from wonderful people than from any medical person. Currently I take Methadone 15 mg daily which gives me about 5 hours of broken sleep per night. I can live with it as its the best I have had for decades. I wonder if some Marijuana would

Maple Syrup
Does anyone else get RLS from 100% pure Maple Syrup? I mean 100% as stated on the label. I have experienced restlessness quite a few times after having it in a night time soothing drink. It was to replace cheap "pouring honey" which I was trying to replace with a healthier option. Would like to get

APNEA v RLS - something else
I have recently been diagnosed with Sleep Apnea & have been given a CPAP machine to use but it seems the drugs I take for RLS (Oxycodone & Gabapentin) are conflicting with the efficacy of the CPAP kit and not bring down my incidence of AHI during the night. The consultant has asked me to row back

Horizant
After pregabalin and gabapentin both made me nervous (I successfully tolerated the pregabalin for years, with daytime sedation however). Codeine also seems to be waking me up instead of sedating me. Doctor is suggesting trying Horizant. I know it is for people who experience symptoms all day, but

ropinerole withdrawal
I have had restless legs for most of my life. The restless legs are out of control now so my GP put me on ropinerole 4 mg a day to begin with and them upped it 8 mg a day. That’s making me have funny feelings, like I’m buzzed or high but I’m not. So I went to a neurologist and he has started taking me

Attitudes to people using opiates
We all have a back story. I know nobody wishes to be thought of as a drug addict. But there may be members with RLS who are recovering drug addicts, or alcoholics trying to get their lives back on track, and needing support from this forum. Its a sensitive are. I hope I haven't offended or upset anyone

Opioid prejudice at the pharmacy
I wonder if other HU members have experienced hostile treatment from the pharmacy, while collecting their opioid medication?At my local chemist, there are a few members of staff who are rude and hostile towards patients who are prescribed opiates. I pick up my prescription every month. When I go in

Interesting Tx for OIC
Sorry about the abbreviations. If you have Opioid-Induced Constipation (OIC) you might be interested in this little story. Tx means Treatment. I am currently on low-dose opioid for RLS--buprenorphine, but previously methadone--and I suffer from OIC. I have been taking a variety of laxatives

Restless Legs and Sleeping Tablets?
Tried the usual meds, Ropinirole, Amtriphyline, Pregabalin and Gabapentin - all useless. Having to stop one and gradually increase of the other has been tortuous. Hell. My mental health is suffering with the nightly and now early evening frequent, wired, compulsive urge to move. Also affecting my arm

HELP, PLEASE??!!
I just had a total knee replacement. For 3 years now buprenorphine has helped, but today I took hydromorphone for pain that my surgeon prescribed, Nexium that my family doctor recommended to take to keep the aspirin I have to take postop to keep from getting ulcers, and cyclobenzaprine. Unfortunately
