I have done the DAs (unfortunately) The side effects of Gabapentin and Pregabalin far out way the benefits. Iron is good, I get infusions as needed. I use Magnesium

Opioids for pramipexole withdrawal – DAWS
I’ve noticed a lot of people are using
opioids
to treat pramipexole withdrawal. How do you ultimately get off the opioid?

Looking for a neuro who prescribes
opioids

I am going to talk to my Neurologist about augmentation and
opioids

why docs don’t want to prescribe opioids for RLS….😔
With all the recent total panic by docs on not prescribing
opioids
, I thought I would just attach Andy Berkowski’s excellent piece on why we are often being refused
opioids
now and almost certainly in the future at least for sometime.

Hello, I’m new to this community as my husband was recently diagnosed with MS.
We love our MS specialist but she cannot prescribe
opioids
for his breakthrough pain in shoulder. Went to a pain doctor who is trying to get him to swap from Baclofen to Tizanidine, which it took him months to adjust to.
