my story
I live in the US and have had RLS and peripheral neuropathy for a number of years and controlled it using tramadol. My doctor took me off of it because of opiate regulations. After trying and failing at buprenorphine, that doctor decided that since I was 80 years old, had been taking a low dose of Tramadol

Methotrexate or Sulfasalazine..
I basically had a
nervous
breakdown
, He allowed me a break as my disease activity had lowered and prescribed sulfasalazine which apparently has more tolerable side effects. I’m still not in a great place mentally, but doing better than I was.

Restless Legs Syndrome
I have suffered from Restless Legs Syndrome for many years. I recently had a major operation to remove an extremely large polyp from my bowel. My bowel has been reduced by app. 25%. My previous doctor prescribed Pregabalin 125 mg. He said that he would not prescribe a higher dose because of the dangers

Daytime RLS
Does anyone have any advice on dealing with RLS during the day? I take 300mg of Pregabalin at night, which helps at night (normally). Recently, the RLS is coming back very badly around lunchtime, and lasts all afternoon, every day, without respite. As you can imagine, it is affecting me pretty badly

Still feeling off balance
Increased Levothyroxine to 75mcg about 4 weeks ago. Have been taking Thorne Basic B Complex, D3000+K2, Ferrous Fumarate 210mg and Vitamin B12 daily oral spray. My symptom of feeling off balance seems to have been worse these last 5 days. Feel as though I’ve had alcohol. Also, I can feel quite vague,

So many questions ??
I am 71 years old, weigh 8 stone, generally fit and healthy. I have probably had RLS for many years causing the occasional sleepless night or restless evening in the chair. I had my first prolonged nighttime episode last November which lasted a few nights. Nothing since except tingling in my left leg

Does anyone use ‘Active Iron’ in UK?
I searched for ferrous bisglycinate on Amazon UK which came up with Active Iron 25mg. I’ve now received it and found it contains ferrous sulfate 25mg! Now I don’t know if this is the right product or dose. Can anyone help?

Iron supplements dosage
Is 20mg of gentle iron each night enough? It worked well the first night. What a wonderful relief it was. The second night it did work within 70 mins but returned within 3 hours.. I wonder why it didn't last as long? Would a slow release be better, like ferrous sulphate 325mg? Or will it need to be

Ferrous Sulphate 325mg modified release
Hi, is there anyone else in the UK using modified (sustained/slow) release ferrous sulphate 325mg or have you been able to obtain the normal, immediate release ferrous sulphate in this dose?

Here we go again!
Many of you may recall that I have suffered terribly with restless legs and arms for decades and that I FINALLY got some relief when I was prescribed Ferrous Fumarate for constantly low iron levels. Although the nightly RLS is still under control, in the past 2 weeks I have actually woken up in the

Buprenorphine
I am currently taking 300 mg Pregabalin around 7pm and 2x 30 g of codeine (sometimes 3x 30g) during the night. I am also taking ferrous sulphate at 10pm each night. This isn’t working. I take the first codeine half an hour before bedtime and maybe sleep for 1 to 2hours. I then have to walk around/have

isosobardene and sharp burning pain in centre of chest and also in abdomen. Allergic reaction?
This feels like the panic attacks I had 18 years ago after a
