Amputation?
Just kidding, new here and been reading a lot so thank you all. Been on ropinirole for 3/4 years now and it's not as effective (augmentation), so decided to come off it. A few weeks ago reduced from 1mg to 0.5mg for 2 weeks. Then I stopped, well I've not slept for 6 nights now and going out my mind.

Sleep journal/anxiety
Just a suggestion: I keep a sleep journal to try and track triggers, drug response histories, etc. One thing I added in the last year was tracking how good my days were--not just my nights--the day after when I note sleep duration/arousals. An unexpected result was that my anxiety about sleeping went

Positive rheumatoid factor
After being back on forth to doctors for test and rheumatology for over 2 years and getting nowhere. I rang up the doctors today to ask if they'd do blood tests as my knees have flared up. She checked my records and told me I had a positive rheumatoid factor tests in 2019, what could this mean? She told

FET with a hemorrhagic cyst - any similar stories?
Hello. I had my baseline scan for my upcoming FET the other day. This will be my 3rd FET this year, the first two failed. This time they found a large looking blood filled cyst on one of my ovaries. Apparently it can happen after ovulation, it just fills with blood and can go away over time. The doc

Upcoming Appointment
Hello, fellow RLS'ers, This is actually my first post; I've been a member of our community for 3 1/2, and years have learned a lot in that time. I'm a 60yo male who lives in the US; I've had RLS for 20+ years but really didn't get to the point of needing medication until about 15 years ago, although

Would be interested in others experience with tolerance to gabapentin
I was on 1400 mg gabapentin for 58 days which completely eliminated my restless legs, but then had to increase it to 1500 mg because of restless legs. I have now been on this for 45 days and last night had restless legs. I take it 300 mg at 5:15, 600 mg at 7:15 and 600 mg at 9:15. If I continue to have

Short FET IVF cycle, no down-regulation only progynova
Hi everyone, advice needed please… I’ve had a failed fresh transfer and a failed frozen transfer ending in chemical pregnancy. My next option is to go into another frozen transfer on a short protocol with no down regulation. Has anyone had any experience of a shorter frozen protocol? It’s great to have

RLS temporary relief suggestion
Hi all, I suffer with RLS for years but my GP has avoided prescribing medication. However, I have tried few different things to get a relief from legs kicking off, but nothing worked good enough to get a decent sleep. I want to share with you a heat rub lotion that I’ve been using it for few months

Just looking for current advice as regards the usage of tocilizumab as an aid to getting down and off prednisolone. I met a helpful person on this site and he had been on prednisolone for many years - more than my 12 years. He told me his endocrinologist had put him on tocilizumab and he had managed

Magnesium and heat and Pregabalin
From my research it seems that Magnesium Oxybate is the interaction problem, and I am supposing not other forms of magnesium? Second query: I have stored some Pregabalin in my car glove compartment for emergencies and now have to take them waiting for a renewal and I am wondering if heat can affect

Tocilizumab treatment?
A friend of mine recently suggested that I try the monoclonal antibody tocilizumab as a treatment for my PMR. My questions are as follows: Has tocilizumab brought anyone into remission and for how long? On balance, is treatment with tocilizumab preferable to the prednisone that I'm taking now? What is

Update on cataract op and Flecainide
I posted recently about a comment my surgeon made after my first cataract op when he said that Flecainide had made the first op slightly more awkward than normal. Today I had my second review and asked him for more detail. He said that Flecainide makes the central black part of the eye 'floppy' and

New here—coming off ropinirole
Found this forum at 4am…you all know the drill! Diagnosed with RLS through a sleep study (performed because of insomnia and shallow sleep/frequent wakes) Jan 2020. Doc (who I am no longer seeing) prescribed 4mg of ropinirole daily, which I now know is a bonkers dose to start with. Once I figured out
