CPAP THERAPY FOR OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA AND MANUKA HONEY
Hello everyone, I was wondering if there were many of us here with Obstructive Sleep Apnea? I recieved a letter last week telling me I had it and I am to attend an appointment at the sleep clinic on Thursday concerning CPAP treatment. A leaflet was meant to be in the letter but I think they must have

My Sleep Study Results, Anesthesia Questions Answered.
I underwent a sleep study on 5-21-13 at the recommendation of my Neuro. This surprised me a bit because I never considered myself a poor sleeper. But, I was experiencing chronic dreams toward dawn in which physical symptoms would get incorporated into my dreams, such as significant pain from falling

simply
afraid that if I

Now off all meds in preparation for TRH Test.
Last time I tried this, I felt better for a couple of weeks, then went down hill pretty quick. This time I have to stay off all meds for about 4 weeks - just hoping I don't end up virtually housebound again :( I am actually interested to see the test results though as far as how my thyroid is working

Are there any treatments for RLS that work but don't cause daytime tiredness as a side-effect?
I seem to've developed daytime tiredness a lot recently. Although also suffering from sleep apnoea, that is treated by a CPAP machine. I suspect the cause could be a side effect of the pramipexole I am taking for RLS. I've tried ropinerole and the Patch but didn't get on well with them. Does anyone else

I have a couple questions about Neupro and Mirapex.
I was on Mirapex until a year ago when I realized I was augmenting badly because I kept upping the dose and got less and less relief. I went through withdrawal, cold turkey, for 3 to 4 weeks before I started Horizant. Pretty quickly I realized that I had to take two Horizant to get good results, and

Overcoming the physical changes in depression.
Hi everyone, I would be interested in hearing from anyone that has taken, or is currently taking the (SRI) antedepressant, paroxetine. I have been prescribed paroxetine by various GP'S since April 2009, and am currently taking the drug now. I have been reluctant to continue to take ante-depressants

Sleep study
Sleep study has anyone else had to do a sleep study with one of these thingies on? It's just measuring heart rate and oxygen saturation as far as I can see, and I was wondering if anyone else had had it and knew why it was usually done! My cons never mentioned it to me, he just ordered it. Got to wear

Has anyone been diagnosed with Hashimotos Encephalopathy ??
Has anyone been diagnosed with Hashimotos Encephalopathy? I know that it is pretty rare. I have a lot of the symptoms. Upon reading about the condition it does seem to have a lot of the same symptoms of adrenal fatigue. Apparently, it responds well to steroids. Hmm I am beginning to wonder if it is

For those of us with smog rents and sore feet this might amuse!! I was trying to sleep in between the blooming air con making me think someone was breaking into my room, I even called security who seemed to think I was daft ( probably the right conclusion ) , anyway I reached onto my bedside cabinet

Thank you!
Thank you all so much for the support! I saw my Rheumatologist yesterday, and he has put me back onto Beta blockers. By slowing my heart rate he hopes it will relieve some of the pressure that builds up in my head. Apparently some vessels in my head are narrowed as a result of APS, so there is not

Soothing stuff
I was very honoured to be asked to dinner by my Saudi neighbours last week, and was served Arabic coffee, which is heavily laced with cardamom. It tastes very odd, like cough mixture, but they only pour a few teaspoons at a time, so it was surprisingly easy to drink - especially with the accompanying
