Weird leg pain
Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this weird symptom! For almost 10 years now I have had pain in my outer calf about two inches up from my ankle on both sides. It comes on with the slightest exertion but is not there all the time. The achy pain builds and builds until I feel like

Horizant
Hi everyone and Sue Johnson. I'm wondering if Horizant is the same as Pregabalin? I guess it is a stronger version of gabapentin. I have tried it and it seems to work pretty good for me.

Pregabalin
Has anyone had any experience of pregabalin becoming less effective? I was taking the maximum dose of 450 mg but I started to have breakthrough symptoms. I went to the GP who appeared horrified that I was taking Pregabalin. She said I must reduce it until I was not taking anymore and at the same time

scared and worried
I will have to admit that I am very concerned about coming off the Ropinirole! After reading some of the experiences that some people have had it makes me wonder what will I go through. I know I’ve said this before but I’m just not sure I can do it. If I had some good support and help it would make it

Hate to do this so soon after my last one, but this is just rich Remember to keep your common sense
I know, and of course if you don't want to read it, don't. On one level this is just too funny. Then you start, perhaps unwisely, reflecting. Items 1-4. 1. https://retractionwatch.com/2020/10/29/amulets-may-prevent-covid-19-says-a-paper-in-elsevier-journal-they-dont/ 2. https://retractionwatch.com

My Labs are back- recommendations pretty please.
Quick summary- RLS for last 20yrs but self endured with no meds until Covid hit and exacerbated symptoms x100. Went to sleep MD and he just started with scripting meds….Gabapentin, Pregabalin, Busibar, Doxepin, Requip, Lunesta. None of these really worked…Requip kinda did but then it did not. So

RLS AND ANTIHISTAMINES
Could someone please advise an alternative to Fexofenadine as it has an effect on my Restless legs. Since stopping this drug my RLS has gone. I have spoken to my GP (UK) they said there is not and alternative to Fexofenadine that is 'non drowsy' on prescription. Thank you. Keith

medication timing???
I am now almost 4 weeks free of Pramipexole 😀 I feel like I am over the worst ( back from hell) but I’m now religiously waking at 11pm then again at 12pm (and sometimes at 1am) with RLS. I have a 10 minute walk around the house and this does ease my pain. I am slowly increasing my Gabapentin dose and

PMR AND ANASTROZOLE
I had an operation for breast cancer (Mastectomy with reconstruction) in mid December. Thankfully I don’t need any more treatment other than anti oestrogen tablets. I have been told by my surgeon that Anastrozole can give the same side effects as PMR so has delayed the start of these tablets as I was

wheat in cosmetics
I’m recently diagnosed with coeliac disease. I’m following a gluten free diet but have noticed that a product I bought to promote hair growth contains wheat germ amongst many other ingredients. As this product needs to be massaged into the scalp should I not use it?

Hi there. Thank you for letting me join the group. 6 years ago I was diagnosed with stage 5 kidney disease and am on regular dialysis. I have since developed restless leg syndrome which has got steadily worse. Pramipexole was prescribed but honestly doesn't help much. As soon as I sit down to relax it

Sjogrens - Tooth Loss, Gum Disease
Hello, I'm new to this and hoping someone can help. I have Sjogrens and a couple of other autoimmune conditions. I experienced a dramatic deterioration with teeth and gums 2 years ago, dentist advised I would lose all my teeth within 6 months and because of the lack of saliva I could not get dentures

Transitioning to Gabapentin Enacarbil
I need some advice when it comes to starting Horizant while moving away from Pramipexole. I've been on Pram for about 12 years and although it still works generally, it's getting less an less effective. So it's time to move on. Gabapentin Enacarbil (Horizant) is what I'm moving to. My question

Low platelets
Hello and thanks to contributors for the all the past useful information and support. Very much appreciated. My GP has now asked me to give Pramipexole a try as both Gabapentin and Pregabalin seem to have caused an unacceptable reduction in platelets. The negative correlation is fairly conclusive.

Methadone
Hello, 3 days ago I started methadone. Started with 2.5 mg on the first night. It didn’t help my rls completely, so the next night I took a whole pill, 5 mg. From an rls perspective, working great. I am not getting breakthrough rls, which is awesome! But I am not sleeping well. I have many short
