Thoughts please
I hope this post is not too long but it's hard to fully explain. I have had severe RLS for 30 years - it started during pregnancy but unfortunately never left and has only worsened over the years. I feel like I have been on every drug with minimal help. I take 0.5 which I went through augmentation

Supplements to reduce glutamate
I was inspired by Widebody's comments on taurine and glycine to look into supplements that reduce glutamate. I found the following on an autism website that I cannot vouch for, but here is the list: (those of us taking gabapentin, pregabalin, horizont are taking medicine that is reducing brain glutamate

Restless legs medication
I have had restless legs for many years and was taking mirtazapine but it is no longer working. I have tried pramipexole but have had awful headaches. I’m now having awful insomnia which combined with RL means I am getting 2-3 hours sleep each night. What medications have you used that have helped

Painkillers
Hi, sorry for my second post in as many days! What painkillers are safe to take with prednisolone please? I'm assuming paracetamol but wasn't sure if anything else was OK to take? I suffer with a lot of migraines (after effects of having a blood clot on my brain several years ago) and the best thing

Ropinirole to Pregabalin
Good Morning RLS team! :) I'm new to this group - very thankful to have found it and the fantastic information that's here. Hurrah for you! Last October I started taking Ropinirole for RLS but have decided I don't want to stay on it any further - I've augmented on that and I have edema in my arms

Advice needed and a bit of a moan...
Due to other problems my Practise Nurse sent me for a scan last year during which it showed that I have a fatty liver. I have asked for tests (as suggested by BLF Nurse)but these were turned down by the GP who said if anything gets worse it will show in the annual blood tests. I would change GP but there

Update on rls
Hello everyone, just an update to let you know how I have been getting on since coming off the dopamine agonist. It's around 3 months now since I took my last tiny piece of pramipexole, after a pretty rough time of crawling legs, arms, shoulder shivers, I'm finally getting better!!! While coming off

Sciatica
I’ve had PMR for 18 months and had got down to 8mg. Pain in one hip and assumed it was a spike so went back to 12mg as advised by doctor. However symptoms still there after 3 weeks and appear to be sciatica. As only in one hip. Very painful and no painkiller helps . Could this be PMR but only in

Gabapentin
Hello I've previously had excellent advice thank you. I have now completely come off the nupro patch wasn't nice coming off the last quarter but I did it. I was taking gabapentin at the same time and after withdrawal from DA symptoms settled I was left with breakthrough from the gabapentin at bedtime
