Supplement schedule query - which should be taken apart from others?
Hello! I've been SI since late 2017, but have changed my co-factor (and other) supplement regime over time - including recently re-introducing folinic acid, having become folate deficient. I've always had low ferritin and months ago started Simply Heme iron supplements, which are supposed to be easier

RLS - Q&A
Hi RLS survivors I am continuing my Pregabalin journey and wanted to check in with this community to ask out loud various questions circling around my head. The good news is that Pregabalin is making a difference. I get some relief from jumpy legs at night even on a low dose (75mg) What I am experiencing

Nothing is working! I’m not asking for advice I’m just feeling sorry for myself.
My girl is 8. She is hyper, extremely defiant, immature, LOUD, obnoxious, and has no impulse control. Honestly, I think she may be a narcissist. Can you tell at 8? I can’t leave her alone because any time I do she at best makes huge messes which she never cleans up but usually destroys things that are

Zoplicone and RLS
I take a sleeping pill every 3 or 4 nights to escape from insomnia. I also take gabapentin , 1200 mg ,which does largely quieten my legs. But recently when taking Zoplicone, I wake after 6 or 7 hours of refreshing sleep to get quite a bad attack of RLS. More than I ever experience as I don't suffer too

RLS medication side effects
Good Morning. I've suffered with restless legs for the best part of 50 years without wanting to boar anyone press-ups used to be my go to cure. But as I've got older they no longer work. I've been on Gabapentin for three or more years, initially it worked fine, I take a 100mg at noon a 300mg early evening

Guidance for RLS
Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum and am so glad to have found you. I have suffered with RLS for years, and in the past year, it's become pretty severe. I get VERY little sleep. Currently, I'm taking Gabapentin and Magnesium Glycinate, but neither are helping--yet. I did take Carbidopa-Levodopa for

Please help with advice on Levo dose and vitamin levels.
Hello.I was started on Levo at 75mg about 10 days ago. My doctor wants to do a blood test after 8 weeks. Last time I was given a 2 month trial and because my TSH came down ( they don't care about antibodies so those weren't checked ! ) they took me off the Levo. Now I've gone to a different, much more

Safe to take Gabapentin for life?
I haven’t been able to find any reliable info on whether Gabapentin is safe to take for life (30+ years), specifically for severe PLMD with pain. My husband has this and has not started it yet, as his neurology visit isn’t until later this week. His case seems to be different than any we have read about

Potassium and Magnesium
Hello all, I was diagnosed with AF the other month (a few days after my 40th, what a lovely gift) and, like everyone else, went down the rabbit hole of doing my own research into it and found many people taking potassium and magnesium supplements. These are many types on the market so I was wondering

iron test results help please
I must admit that even after a few years, while I mostly understand my thyroid test results, my iron tests continue to confuse me - I just can’t seem to get my head around the significance of the different parts. So I wondered if someone who actually understands could please explain in really simple

Fitness seems to be so important?
I just want to say how much exercising helps me manage this condition. I am living alone but I am at risk of falling over due to freezing gait and unpredictable falls backwards. But I am much better if I am moving about! The worse thing is to do nothing. If i have been sitting at the computer for too

Iron and magnesium levels plus
Hi everyone. I recently had blood tests done as suggested and results have come back showing slightly low magnesium level at 0.68mmol/L and serum ferritin level of 60ng/ml. (Low?) I've been asked to go back for retest on the magnesium but no mention of the iron? Looking back on my test results I had

update and advice on flights
understanding. She has given me the form to get my iron tested but did say it would be difficult to get anybody to agree to an iv iron transfusion but let’s wait and see what my bloods come back as first. She has prescribed me gabapentin, at my request, but think I may try to manage it a bit again first
