RLS under anesthesia
Has anyone had RLS while under anesthesia ? I didn't know it would be possible but my Dr told my husband I was probably a secret opioid addict because my legs were twitching a lot during the procedure...... 1. I don't take opioids. Even when I tried them for RLS years ago it didn't really work and

HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY
Hello, Am booked for a hip replacement operation on 1st February. I had 2 knee replacement operations in 2017 and 2018. Although a hip replacement is supposed to be somewhat less painful and easier to recover from, I am dreading it for the simple reasons I have severe rheumatoid arthritis - so stopping

LDN for RLS??
I wonder if others know about LDN? I just found out that it maybe can help RLS. LDN, in case you’re unfamiliar, is “Low Dose Naltrexone”. It’s an older medication that has to be compounded into a tiny therapeutic dose for use “off label”. It’s a known to be both an anti-inflammatory medication and

Mean GPs or Doctors.
What mean things have your doctors or healthcare service provider said to you? I was diagnosed with CFS/ME in 2001. Recently I had a male GP tell me that he was reducing down my opioids and I "would just have to learn to live with the pain"! Excuse me? What?? I had also mentioned that due to nerve

Your 'teeth and gums' could be CAUSING your PD!
Even though I had the last of my mercury fillings removed a few months ago... and a root canal on another tooth... I know I need additional dental work that I've been putting off... until I read this:

possible to improve C Telopeptide Serum blood test for risk of osteonecrosis?
Hi, about 5 months ago I took myself off the Xgeva bone drug after being on it about 2 years or so. This was after learning I couldn’t be on it and also have the dental work done that I need to have done (cavitations etc). My personal feeling after doing research over the years is that I’m not able

body heat and buprenorphine
Hi, I have been using Buprenorphine patches for 4 weeks and was wondering whether body heat releases more opioids into the system. When I’m really warm I feel spacey and drowsy. Has anyone else experienced this?

Opioid induced augmentation
I know it's commonly thought that Tramadol is the only opioid that causes augmentation. But I'm wondering whether anyone has suffered worsening symptoms whilst taking other opioids? I'm taking Morphine and over recent weeks I've been experiencing persistent, horrible, intrusive daytime symptoms

Learning to live with PMR
My PMR started with strange stiffness, as if I'd been riding a horse, around the hips and buttocks in April/May 2022. I ignored it as far as possible, trying physio with no success. It was when I did the Dales Way in Yorkshire in June/July that I realised my fatigue, slowness and trouble getting over

Targin and nausea
I have been taking Targin 10/5 for 3 months and found it very effective. However I have also been experiencing nausea off and on and think it might be caused by Targin. Has anyone else found this? Are there other opioids that are less likely to cause nausea?

All regular use sublingual opioid medications etc how to protect your teeth.
REGULAR use of sublingual medications, from opioids to Valium etc I break mine into tiny pin head size pieces with a pill cutter. I know 200 mcg Temgesic or 2 mg of Buprenorphine looks very small, however I have followed this process for over 3 years now. - Reasons - Absorption in seconds - Better
