I can't seem to get off my SSRI
I have tried weaning off Lexapro extremely gradually, over a 3 year period, going from 10mg to 3mg. RLS seemed to gradually worsen during this time, especially during the last 6 months. It seemed that the SSRI and RLS were unrelated. Six weeks ago, I received a job promotion, and was suddenly hit

Is an opiate the way to go?
I currently take 100mg Pregabalin and use 2mg Neupro patch (Rotigotine) and these are to control my RLS. However I have been on them for several years and they seem to be becoming much less effective starting about 4 months ago, I think I am getting into augmentation, particularly with the Neupro .

Losing our little baby boy to Edwards Syndrome
Had our 20 week scan Monday and was referred to London for more scans with Edwards syndrome. My little baby boy is a wriggly active baby and I feel him move quite often but yet he really isn’t very well. His brain and heart are severely defective and they say his heart could just stop any minute. We

RLS - Pramipexole and CBD oil
I have suffered with RLS syndrome for 35/40 years or so. After many different medications I remained on Amitriptyline for years. My RLS became much worse earlier this year with severe jerking and very little sleep again. My GP put me on Pramipexole, to be increase from 1 to 3, as needed. I was ok on

Has anyone developed a breast lump during IVF treatment?
There was a post about this a few years ago, which is helpful, but I'm just wondering if anyone active nowadays on the network has found a breast lump either during or shortly after IVF? I posted earlier today about my mixed results from my current IVF cycle, with the 'mixed' part being the discovery

Low Blood pH While on Ventilator
My husband has been in the ICU and on a vent for 4 weeks now due to Covid pneumonia. His vent settings are on 85% oxygen and 12 PEEP with a RR of 32. His oxygen levels are okay. This morning the pO2 was 87 and the monitor read 94. However, his CO2 remains very high (>90), which causes his pH to

Ferritin levels
Finally managed to convince my GP to test my ferritin level. The result came back at 94 and from reading posts here, I note the level should be above 100. Could someone clarify please if Ferritin is the same as Ferrograd. I have been using Pregabalin 175mg for about a year and find the effects

Wellbutrin as an SSRI alternative?
Hi I'd be interested in hearing from anyone that has made a successful transition to wellbutrin from an SSRI and whether it has worked for them. My understanding is that this antidepressant does not aggravate RLS. I have tried to gradually taper off of Lexapro and was recently hit with unbearable anxiety

Atorvastatin
Does anyone know if this medicine to reduce cholesterol has any effect on RSL by making the symptoms worse? I'm wary now of taking any medicine that could worsen RLS as I took Nytol once that sent my RLS ballistic so I need to check this Atorvastatin out before taking it.
