Severe IBS D Constipation
I’ve struggled over the last 40 years with IBS C and now I’ve the last 5 years more of a IBS D issue. If I don’t stick with a regiment of daily Metamucil and flax I get constipated but usually resolves within a few days. However this time I just had the worst flareup. Got so constipated for almost 3

Withdrawal
How long does this withdrawal from mirapexin last. It's almost 2 weeks and I'm on 300mg and then 600mg gabapentin. I still have to take tramadol and Kratom to sleep. Should I increase the gabapentin to 600 and 600. I just hope gabapentin will work for me. The doctor won't prescribe more tramadol and

Reducing gabapentin
I feel that I need to take more gabapentin because I am withdrawing from mirapexin. When I settle and if I can, is it possible to reduce the gabapentin

Update
This is an update on my previous post. I stopped mirapexin completely last Thursday. I was ok and controlling the legs with Kratom and tramadol. My legs felt bad from around 4pm yesterday (Monday) I decided to take 300mg gabapentin at 6pm. My legs were pretty bad so I took 1/2 teaspoon of Kratom. Nothing

Weight gain
I'm thinking of trying gabapentin. Should I stop taking my 0.09mg mirapexin before starting. I tried Lyrica and put on a lot of weight quickly. Does gabapentin cause the same weight gain. I haven't taken mirapexin for 2 days but take 50mg tramadol and Kratom. Advice pleeease

The one Restless Limb that may have saved me years of trouble.
Back in the day when I was first starting medications to treat my RLS the doctor started with
Mirapex
and then Requip. At the the lowest dose of each there was quite a reaction. I can "firmly" say that I could not tolerate these medications because they caused painful priapism.

Sensitive to my own fecal matter
It seems that as my fecal matter moves through my large intestine, my intestine and rectum are so inflamed. I suffer from IBS C. I have to use Miralax daily and I am in so much pain as the matter moves thru bowels. I’d rather be constipated but, of course, after a couple of days of That and I am

Gastro intestinal issues
Have any of you experienced Gastro issues with Docetaxel. My husband feels so bloated, feels like he’s not emptying out all the way, not passing gas. His Oncologist told him try gas x and miralax. He still feels very uncomfortable. Thought If any of you have had this maybe you would have some suggestions

My RLS story - Augmentation, Detox, Life back
We decided to try
Mirapex
and it worked like a miracle. I would take it just before the flight and would not have any problems. Over a couple years RLS started to increase and now affected my sleep so much that my PP suggested to switch to Pramipexole and try a higher dose.

Early morning thoughts and worries
Was fine all day, went fishing off the pier and as it got chilly my Raynauds started acting up and short periods of vertigo. I was frustrated with A and let her constant arguing get me worked up. After a hard talk i went upstairs and started to get chills and my whole body is achy, limbs in fire and

Ecopipam and Dr. Ondo.
We will be conducting a small, short study of ecopipam in RLS patients currently taking only dopamine agonists – pramipexole (
Mirapex
), ropinirole (Requip) or rotigotine (Neupro) – who initially had good benefit but now have augmentation. Other RLS drugs will not be allowed in the study.

Buprenorphine/ Subutex,, Temgesic,CBD, THC , Traumeel injections
I can’t not emphasis this enough Anyone starting Buprenorphine / Subutex Or the micro dose version Temgesic. You will not get this advice from your doctors but I urge you to start in this manor. Buy a pill cutter and nightly cut you sublingual tablet into about 8 /10 tiny little crumbs. These medications

RLS relief
When I was diagnosed my doc started me on on Pramipexole (
Mirapex
). I took that with doc increasing over time until it got to the point I was not getting any relief from the medicine. I started seeing a movement disorder/sleep doc. Things are a little better, but could be a lot better.

RLS COPING MECHANISMS
What I might do to calm my legs before bedtime: 1. Stretching 2. Messaging 3. Walking about 4. Drink a glass of water 5. Take a bath to relax 6. Make myself a cup of Pukka Nighttime Tea 7. DISTRACTION: Looking at old photo albums, play Bridge or Scrabble on phone, try on clothes, do my nails. 8.

Sinimet?
Ny neuro has prescribed Sinimet IN ADDITION to the
Mirapex
I am already taking. (nights have been bad.) I’m like - another nasty drug? Anyone taking this or have any comments, etc.? My RLS was GREAT. Taking iron and was sleeping well, etc. It has returned with a vengeance and that was his solution?
