Radiotherapy for prostate local and retroperitoneal nodes
ADT of lupron and abiraterone has been pretty tolerable so far, almost four months - maybe I got cocky. Started my SBRT 28 fraction 70 Gy radiotherapy four days ago, mild to moderate urinary urgency and some burn started almost immediately. Diarrhea started at night after day four, mild so far. How

Tips for tapering off pramipexole?
Hello, I suffer from RLS, probably because I took Venlafaxine for the last 29 years (this antidepressant is known to trigger and worsen RLS). My first RLS symptoms appeared around 2007. They remained mild until ~2015. Then they started to be strong enough to damage my sleep quality. I finally decided

Constipation
Hi helpful community. I am on 40 mg or prednisone for CGA, tapering down to 35 in 2 days for 2 weeks. I am suffering from constipation. Is it due to the prednisone or the Calcium supplements (600 mg x 2 per day)? I take Miralax (Restorolax) every couple of days. then I take mineral oil for couple

Waking up a sleeping colon
I have had this happen several times. Yesterday I had a call from a person who was going to stop by in 2 hours with their grandchild. Of course I was thrilled but also realized by house needed a big once over. I literally flew around, vacumning and washing the bathroom, etc. Lots of bending down which

Cortisone shot
I have been advised to have a cortisone shot for my shoulder pain. Recently my rls has been so much better due to cutting sugar and alcohol from my diet. I'm still on a very low dose of mirapexin 0.09mgs which I take at 9pm. Every ten days I come off the Mirapexin and take 3 days of tramadol. This routine

Why am I afraid to go to the bathroom?
I’ve been dealing with constipation issues for the past year. I can only attribute it to gettin older - never had any problems before that. I won’t go into the details of what I have tried - I’ve taken lots of great hints from videos and forums; a lot of it seems to work - and then it doesn’t.

Baclofen for RLS experiences?
I have been tapering from Mirapexin to pregabalin for over three years. However, my question is not about that. My nightly symptoms include the weird sensation in my legs that no one can accurately describe, and my legs twitch and jump about a lot, which is the symptom that keeps me awake. In a recent

No rls after over 50 years
Although I'm not diabetic my sugar levels were always quite high. I decided to eat what diabetics eat and believe it or not NO rls for over a week. Ok I'm still taking 0.18mg mirapexin for 10 days which I alternate with tramadol for 3 nights but amazingly it seems to work for me. I had found wine was

Dopamine to Pregabalin transition advice, please
I started taking Mirapexin in 2002. My dose increased over the years, reaching 5 x 0.088 mg tablets four years ago when augmentation set in. Three years ago, my doctor prescribed pregabalin and allowed me to manage my transition from Mirapexin. I have not yet completed that transition. Today, I take

Diverticulitis, hemerrhoids (?), fissure (?), bleeding
Hello. After a pretty unusual bout of diverticulitis diagnosed by a CT scan, I saw my GI doc and he wants to do another colonoscopy. This is my 4th bout in 6 years - not very bothered by it - but the last one, well, I could not get the stool out, and then started pooping orangy slime. After that I went

Phenomenon
I am "visiting" from the Afib forum because I found that the primary trigger for my Afib was trapped gas and bloating, associated with constipation and eating the wrong foods. I found that I have celiac disease and have made adjustments to diet and eliminated constipation, among other changes, and

Cannabis and Restless Leg
Hi all, I was told recently that cannabis, in whichever form you choose, may be helpful in relieving restless leg. Do any of you try this with any success? I had a weed cookie last night, very low dose, and it SEEMED to help, but I had only reduced my Mirapexin, not refrained completely, so I'm not

Miralax directions and time before working???
Hi all! I have IBS-C and I would like to know if anyone has had luck with taking Miralax and also if I take my first dosage today do I continue to take a dosage each of the 1-3 days until maybe it produces a bowel movement? Or do I take a dose and wait 1-3 days before taking another dose? I'm confused
