Requip and restless leg
I’ve been on requip for 15 years- I take 2mg in morning and 2 mg at night. I don’t like it I think it is causing augmentation and I wake up nauseated. I would love to get off but have heard horror stories about withdrawal! Getting off may make my restless leg and Parkinson’s worse! I don’t know what

Shingles Vaccine
My Rheumatologist has recommended that I get a shingles vaccination before starting biologics. Anyone else under 50 and received vaccine? Any adverse events? I’ve read mixed reviews since no studies have been conducted on safety of vaccine in patients with autoimmune disease. I am getting it tomorrow

Impetigo
Hi everyone, I am still on Pred for PMR and should be meeting someone tomorrow who has been diagnosed with Impetigo. Would it be advisable to give them a wide berth. Thank you, Jenny x

Oxycodone Dopamine Agonist?
So I have just come off of ropinirole for restless leg due to augmentation and I’m now taking oxycodone 5 mg before bedtime. This is really been helping and I was hoping it would be good for the transitioning from Ropinerol. I just read that oxycodone is an agonist. Does this mean I will have augmentation

Anyone have Sjorgen's or dry mouth too?
I know PBC and Sjorgen's tend to go hand in hand so this might help someone else. I was at the Mayo Clinic last week and it was suggested I may have Sjorgen's too. He also said PBC alone can cause dry mouth. I have a very dry mouth, dry eyes, etc. My teeth are brittle, they just started cracking in

Viral Meningitis 72 year old father
My dad fell unresponsive over 2 weeks ago. Once in the hospital they determined he had viral meningitis. Lots of antibiotics and 2 weeks later he is extremely weak, won’t eat, and he is confused and agitated. He struggles to know who we are (my mom, brother, grandkids, etc) and has little to no

New here with new tip that works for me
My partner is a medical bio-chemical scientist. For me, he makes a liquid form of magnesium and a spray that has something called DMSO in it - it takes the magnesium through my skin. I see that people here talk about taking magnesium by mouth but I've found this works better for me. I rub them on my

Does any of you know what is wrong with me?
I am 20 years old, since I was 15 years old I have been having cognitive problems, I don't understand what the characters in movies and tv shows say, and I can't understand what I read, I already went to see a neurologist and they did a CT scan of my head and an EEG, and the results were normal, they

Cold Sores
I was diagnosed in 2010 with CLL and on W&W. I am now troubled with persistant cold sores on my nose or mouth. Tried the usual creams but still come back. Does any one have the same problem?

This has helped my restless legs
Because of the exorbitant price of the relaxis pad, I came up with my own version that works pretty good. I bought a foam back roller on Amazon ($26 USD) that vibrates. I place it at the foot of my bed under the blankets and I press my feet against it which sends gentle vibrations up my legs helping

RLS LDN NORCO KRATOM B-12 SHOTS AND GETTING VEINS COLLAPSED...
LDN and Norco...was doing six norco a day...took LDN with it and it made the pain with RLS a hundred times worse. The LDN partially blocks the opiod receptors...and when the natural endorphins build up pressure where the natural endorphins push themselves in the cell and you get pain relief. Now Norco

Shingles with your CTD anyone?
Hi all, It's been ages since I've been able to post. Life seemed to get hit with a bomb. Things are still not right yet, but I'm finding ways to pull focus back from only the terrible. But the second you start to get the balance (or think you do), another hit happens. This time -- Shingles! I was
