Hi all, I have just joined as after years of poor sleep And not understanding why I think I have restless leg syndrome. For years I’ve had sensations in my legs that are hard to describe but inside my legs feels itchy like insects are crawling in them. I have tried everything I can think of to stop

Restless legs
Hello, I don't post very often but I always read the messages.I was very interested to see all the posts relating to restless legs - something I had never heard of before today.

Anyway on the floor in A and E. was given plenty of meds by IV, fluids for dehydration I think, tramadol, buscopan and

Quinine
I am feeling very comfortable with this group so I will reintroduce myself with my real name, Sharron and I live in southern Ontario, Canada. I saw somewhere, in one of the strings a mention of Quinine. If I understood it correctly Quinine is a drug that can exasperate several health issues including

Quinine for leg cramps
Hi, I've just been prescribed Quinine for severe leg cramps, which I put down to Achilles tendonitis, and sciatica, I also have mild RLS. I have just taken my first tablet tonight, then decided to do some research (which I wish I had done first!) . And what I have found out has scared the life out of

Night Cramps torment
Hi to everyone. Does anyone have any suggestions to help relieve night cramps in both legs and feet? I am 63 years. I have endured these for the last 8 or 9 years and it seems to be getting worse. I am taking prescribed quinine every night, (breaking the course for a week every month) and cover my legs

Looking For Answers. New to the site and desperate.
On the 24th February I went to my GP as I had been experiencing 9 days of severe headache. As a migraine sufferer for the last 55 years it had taken a few days for me to realise that a) it wasn't diminishing in intensity and b) the pain and other symptoms were not associated with my usual migraine related

night time cramps
I was diagnosed with ET last year and take Hydroxicarbamide (x2 daily) and asprin. Recently I have been getting really bad cramp in calf and thigh, usually coming on in the early hours after a couple of hours sleep. Is this common? Is it anything to do with the ET and medication or just a coincidence

DVT meds a cause ?
Hi everbody I have experienced RLS in the past occasionally when over tired or on a plane (the latter being such a nuisance !), but recently it has affected me most nights causing me to get up and walk around up to 10 times, which as you all know leads to a bad nights sleep. I have led a normal life

Quinine
My GP has just put me on Quinine. I have take Pramipexole for some years. I was wondering whether anyone else has been prescribed this and what were the results.

Over medication!
Excuse me I am in a very reflective mood. My father died last weekend. He was 95. I cared for him for 12 years fetching a huge bag of tablets from the doctors every month. He was on tablets for heart failure, chronic kidney disease, statins (of course) then tablets such as quinine for cramps etc etc

Trying to wean off Mirapexin nightmare.
To tide me over whilst trying to come off mirapexin, because of augmentation problems, my gp prescribed me clonazepam and quinine . I went home with high hopes that this was going to stop the torture I was going through, and also let me sleep. However, it made my symptoms so much worse that I was awake

Warfarin and Quinine Anyone had issues?
I am now on extra tablets Quinine but it does state that they can affect warfarin as well as the heart rate. Does anyone have any issues with the mix. I have got them as I have been getting nightly cramps in the legs and feet. Be Well

Restless Limbs
I've had this for about 20 years, but it's got worse (and in my arms too) since I've been on hrt. I've tried a load of meds*, but so far the only thing that helps (sometimes) is mollasses. It's driving me nuts, messes with my already messed-up sleep (I have CPTSD, and Asperger's, and idiopathic neuropathy

Quinine Sulphate
Does anyone know if Quinine Sulphate is used for Lupus or Connective Tissue problems? I was prescribed Plaquanil/Hydroxychloroquine but has a horrific reaction to this but I know I can take Quinine Sulphate as I took it at very high dosages when treating Lyme and co-infections in 2006-2008
