Having difficulty getting a prescription for opioids for RLS
I have quite severe RLS - the relentless symptoms are kept under control to some degree by 0.75mg of ropinirole and I am certainly not willing to up the dosage. I get the occasional breakthrough of horrendous restlessness - often in the car! Aghh - so I think that the dose I am taking is no longer quite

The recent AASM Draft Guidelines
I finally had a chance to look at the recent AASM Draft Guidelines. I was surprised by a number of things. They should have had something between conditional for and conditional against. Why did they choose those particular things? Some don't even have much relevance to improving RLS such as antidepressants

looking for a neuro who is open to prescribing opioids to patients in NY state
After several years on Neupro and Gabapentin I tapered off Neupro but my symptoms persist. Looking for a neuro who prescribes opioids. I’m in NY and haven’t found one here. Called Yale cause I heard Dr Koo sees patients in NY but Yale said that’s incorrect.

looking for a neurologist
Can anyone recommend a neurologist knowledgeable in RLS in the Bristol/ Bath (England) area ? I currently have a neurologist whom I rate quite highly but who cannot prescribe opioids as they are not on the formulary of the hospital where she practises. She has however asked my GP to prescribe Oxycodone

More cold Turkey!
Many thanks to all who have responded to my Cold Turkey post. I was very moved by the support I received and thank you also for the excellent advice. It is now 8 weeks since I last took Premipexole. I am still suffering chronic RLS debilitating Nausea and anxiety. I don't feel like I can take much more.My

Dental treatment and CLL
My husband has been taking Acalabrutinib for nearly two years. His lymphocyte count is around 40 and other blood results normal. His dentist says he needs 4 teeth extracted over the next year or so - 3 teeth in 2 sessions in the Spring/Summer and one in the Winter. His main worries are having to stop

Post dental treatment
Wondering how you are all doing? Just has some dental treatment this week and thought I was doing okay after it but now feeling the effects. Why does dental treatment do that? I made sure to ensure I didn't have adrenal in local aneasthetic, checked I wasn't sensitive to the ingredients in the filling

2 years with constant headache and muscle pain
My girlfriend has been struggling with a constant headache for 2 years now. It's accompanied by muscle pain in the neck and shoulders. It's taking its toll, mentally, emotionally, and financially. We've seen so any doctors both private and on the NHS. We've tried Botox, acupuncture, prolozone therapy
