Does anyone take both Madopar and Sertraline ?
I take Zoloft for my Bipolar and have taken many other medications in the past. The sertraline actually works without most of the horrid side effects of other things. I've had RLS for a while but it's become extremely bad over the last 6 months and my insomnia is causing a range of problems for me. My

Augmenting on everything
Hi, I've been on codeine phosphate 60mg for the past 6 months and it's been fantastic but once again I seem to be augmenting on it, I've augmented on everything, tramadol, dopamine agonists, etc.. I really thought codeine was going to work this time, iron supplements really helped over the past 2 years

Has anyone used Dipyridamole with effect for RLS?
I read that in 2014 and 2015 , Dr Ferre receieved grants from the RLS Foundation to more closely examine how dopamine and glutamate work in the brain. Apparently he found that low levels of receptors of adenosine, a chemical in the brain that regulates neurochemicals, lead to abnormally high levels

Neurologist in Dallas who is open to opiates for RLS?
Long story short, I had a terrible experience with the neurologist I went to see earlier this year after trying to get off ropinerole due to lactation suppression and augmentation issues. Current neurologist just wants to keep increasing my dose of ropinerole, which I know is a recipe for disaster. Gabapentin

Why don't Doctors recognise the chronic after effects of Meningitis?
Hi Everyone. So I'm sat watching the news and they are talking about the effects of 'Long Covid'. Doctors are actually recognising the chronic symptoms patients are experiencing and planning how to improve their care. Covid has been around how long? How about Doctors listening to the Chronic symptoms

What can I do about my anxiety disorder if SSRIs increase my RLS
I have been taking Zoloft 200 mg for severe anxiety disorder for over 20 years with good success. About 2 years ago I started getting RLS.
