RLS TREATMENT: Every day I read questions and answers on this forum and I would like to share with you some of my concerns
about the replies given to the many RLS sufferers who are struggling with their medication. All medications, if you read the leaflets, have side-effects and complications and at the end of the day, we have to weigh up which ones are going to be effective for each of us individually. 1.Dopamine Agonists

Treatment for dry, peeling lips
What do you use for Sjogrens dry, peeling lips? I have had lupus for 30 years, and a variety of dry eye and salivary gland issues, that have at times been severe. Been treated for both. Also have dry sinus, and sleep apnea. Even if I use items to prevent mouth breathing during sleeps, lips still

Coconut water
I read a post from a while back on here about a guy that had gotten RLS when he had a nasty case of the flu. He talked about how beneficial coconut water was for his RLS. I was skeptical of course, so I looked it up. Pregnant women use it sometimes for the potassium and everything. Since it’s packed

Some foods tasting soapy
I started noticing certain foods tasting like perfumed soap / liquid detergent two weeks ago. First it was pork foods. Then seasame oil (so soapy it made me gag) and peanut butter. Just now I had to spit out raw pepper as it also had exact same soapy flavour. It's not pregancy but I did have my Mirena

Still have to completely avoid triggers while on opioids?
So, with the possibility of a hospital admittance being in my future, I’m sure they’ll want to get me on medications for my stomach that will not agree with my legs. They’ll also probably have me eating a BRAT diet. I’m scared. Last night I woke up a bunch of times and I was restless and had nothing

Hello all - I saw the neurologist here in Seattle this past week about moving from Ropinirole to Buprenorphine due to augmentation. He decided I should move over to 900 mg Gabapentin before bed instead. I have been taking 300 mg of gabapentin 3 x daily for other reasons. During the discussion he

CBD and THC
I still use CBD and THC for pain it works really well HOWEVER the prescribing doctors don’t realise we need very specific plants or it can make it worse. I have been on Nanibis it works well for pain the doctor changed it to a brand called spectrum from Canada and it overrode my buprenorphine. I thought

A Message to ChrisWF and the Entire Forum
ChrisWF and all Forum Members, To be clear, I am one of the people who complained about two of your replies, because I felt you were using sarcasm and negativity with some posters because you did not like what they had to say when you could have just ignored them or made your point without the sarcasm

Knee pain
So, at work today I developed a bit of pain behind my knee- it also had a sense of numbness around it. Just got in with the day, but sitting in the sofa tonight, it’s been more painful, and it’s been difficult to bed without tight pain. I asked my daughter to look and she said there is a lump behind

Soothing Sore Bits!!
Currently 32 weeks pregnant and I’ve got quite sore lady bits, I thought it was possible a strange sort of chafing that I’d never had before as I’ve done a lot of walking this weekend, but I’ve just had a look in the mirror and I’m quite swollen down there, I’ve read about engorged swelling down below

Restless leg relief ideas
Hi, I am 30 and very active. I wondered if anyone can give me any tips. I had restless leg on and off in the past but recently it’s been every evening and it’s preventing me going to sleep.

Thank you
I have had RLS for 20 years - it is a scourge. I am consistently shocked at how cavalier the medical community is about it. Not to mention ignorant. I have resorted now to CBD/THC gummies to sleep but I live in California so that is an option. I also use Hylanda homeopathic remedy which does seem to
