Progress ... ?
My doctor refused to give me the tests for iron deficiency that I asked for, saying that past tests showed my iron levels are fine. I contacted her again to explain how the tests I need now are different - copying out for her the relevant paragraphs from two research articles on the matter. I also sent

listening to music has transformed my sleep
I’ve suffered terribly from restless leg syndrome since I was a child. Only Having it diagnosed later in life. My RLS definitely comes and goes but when it’s at it’s peak it keeps me up in the night in levels of discomfort only a fellow RLS sufferer can understand. Recently I purchased some wireless

Children’s live flu nasal spray
Morning, my Granddaughters are about to have their annual flu jab, which here in the UK is a live nasal spray. I know I need to keep away from them for a while, but cannot find anything on the NHS website to suggest how long for. Does anyone know or have had experience of this? Thanks

Go back on Pramaprexol?
I was on Miropex/Pramaprexol for 15 years for RLS until I augmented late 2021. I phased out the Pramapexol slowly as recommended by this site and Mayo Clinic(complete hell),as I began Gabapentin. I hated the side effects so switched to Pregabalin,which I also hated. I now take 100 MG of Tramadol

Just received the full copy of my blood test where I can see my TSI
My TSI is 1.20 (0.00 - 2.00) Does it mean that I ddi not have Graves and RAI is not right treatment for me? Thank you very much for your opinions.

Hi, everyone.
Hi. I am new but am so excited to be here. I have PTSD. I try a lot to handle my day to day. I need help getting back into society and interacting with people. I feel really comfortable in my home environment with my dog. If anyone has any suggestions, I would take them. I would also take sleep strategies

buprenorphine for RLS
I have been trying doses of suboxone for RLS. for some people it is magic that gives them there life back. I took all the way up to 8 mg and it didn’t do much 🫤 I don’t get it. We are more experts than the doctors so my question is, does anyone have any clue why 8 mg of buprenorphine would not

Clonazepam
Hi I'm still having a rough time with RLS despite my usual gabapentin and temgesic. My doctor has suggested trying clonazepam in combination with my existing medication and I wondered what experience my fellow sufferers had with it. I've tried other benzo sleeping tablets in the past but the RL always

Covid autumn booster and flu vaccs
Having said I'd have my flu and covid booster separately I've just booked to have both at once at our surgery. Has anyone strong feelings either way? I've never had reactions to any of covid jabs ( Astra Zeneca Moderna or Pfizer) or to any flu jab.

Further evidence that getting cold can trigger my AF.
A couple of times during covid lockdown I had got cold after a winter walk with friends when sitting outside (not allowed inside remember) chatting and having a sarnie and I went into AF. Well it has happened again this time whilst cycling in the Pyrenees and I have recorded it on my Polar chest

hypothyroid and flu-like symptoms
Hello, I’m just wondering if there is any link between hypothyroidism and flu-like illness. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2013 after radiation treatment for lung cancer. I feel like I have the flu approximately once a month and this has been going on for years. I never have a cough but sore

UTIs & D mannose
I'm currently having recurring infections- 2 different abx in just a few weeks. Due to see yet another gynae in early September re bladder prolapse. Tried D mannose before without success but maybe not taking enough?? Should it be 3 tabs every 3 hours- for how long? Thanks again as usual, Valerie

Bizarre aid in relieving my RLS symptoms
I have suffered severely from RLS for most of my life (I'm now 66). For the last few years I have been prescribed Ropinirole and Pregabalin, although the Pregabalin was stopped at the end of 2021. My symptoms have been unchanged for many years - sensations in legs, arms, shoulders and wrists; generally

Imagine being depressed coz of pain caused by stress and depression again. The
