Help with "sick day rules"
Hello, It's been a while. I am struggling and need some dose guidance please. My normal dose is 10mg per day. I delivered Mark to hospital on Sunday for a planned Total Knee Replacement which took place on Monday morning. He's doing very well, no pain (typical of him lol) and he was discharged yesterday

A&E trip
I had to make a trip to A&E today because I’ve been bleeding consistently for 27 days with severe abdominal and back pains. I waited for four hours and came out with painkillers that I had to cry to be prescribed. I posted here last week asking for advice on what to do because I believe the Provera has

Hi, I was chatting to a colleague today about their restless legs which have been unbearable lately. Their doctor put them on Perindopril for high blood pressure, Amiodipine- a calcium channel blocker, and Fenofibrate for high cholesterol. He thought they made his legs so much worse (his doctor doesn't

Reliance on Codeine
However I don't want to stop it right now as I know how painful the
leg
will become and tackling the resultant
pain
afterwards is not something I want to go through again...Any thoughts or past experience to relay?

night time pain
Hi there everyone. Forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere, but I my sleep is being ruined by severe lower back pain./stiffness in the night. My neurologist has prescribed me slow-release madopar overnight. This is proving completely ineffective. The only reliable way I can get a decent Sleep

Belbuca vs. Suboxone
I’m in the US (CA). I’ve been on Suboxone for two months and it handles my RLS quite well. I’m currently taking about .4 mg (1/5 of a 2mg strip) nightly. I’ve gotten over the tiredness that arose for the first month or so, but the constipation is no fun. I’ve read one study that says buccal applications

Nerve pain in left leg.
Further to my last post, Dr. is sending me for a Dexa Scan and an MRI Scan to try and get to the bottom of this. Fingers crossed as it is not getting any better, in fact the Osteopath's exercises seem to make it worse.

Attended Late Effects Clinic - Answers at last
It is obvious I have damage from radiotherapy and the first plan is to treat the
leg
pain
I struggle with. I am on Pregabalin twice a day to see how we go for the nerve pain. There is hope that if this helps at the low dose then my fatigue may ease as well. Time will tell.

Pregabalin
Has anyone had any experience of pregabalin becoming less effective? I was taking the maximum dose of 450 mg but I started to have breakthrough symptoms. I went to the GP who appeared horrified that I was taking Pregabalin. She said I must reduce it until I was not taking anymore and at the same time

scared and worried
I will have to admit that I am very concerned about coming off the Ropinirole! After reading some of the experiences that some people have had it makes me wonder what will I go through. I know I’ve said this before but I’m just not sure I can do it. If I had some good support and help it would make it

10k training run
Hi folks 🤗 just thought I'd update you on how my training is going. Today I'm up to 6k run I could pinch myself as never thought I'd get to do anything like that again!! Feeling good though wee bit knee trouble now and then. But nothing a pain killer and deep heat can sort. I'm joining a park run group

Eugenol
I just happened to come across some information relating to cirrhosis. It is called eugenol and it comes from cloves. The NIH as recently as 2021 has done studies and as far as I can tell it is helping the liver to heal. I am not a scientist so the big scientific words are beyond me so I am not sure

Flare on the way ?
I'm on a slow taper of 0.5mg every 8 weeks which has been going well. I reduced to 3mg from 3.5 2 weeks ago and things have not felt quite right . I have had some pain at the base of my spine, not all the time and in some of my fingers and my wrists too . Over the last few days my shoulders have started
