New to Headway as the spouse of someone with TBI
Good morning all, Just a note to say hello and express my gratitude for finding this group! I've been married for 34 years and my wife had a TBI in 2016. Thank God the effects have been relatively mild, but enough to drive me to find this site. She almost died from a fall and had to undergo a craniectomy

PD and Sleep Apnea
I was diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea in the fall of last year (cronic fatigue), but the machine has not been available in my area, and are just now starting to arrive. So it made me wonder is there a connection with sleep apnea and PD, and if you use a CPAP or similar device, have you seen any benefits

Benefits of nortriptyline
Hello - my physio thinks I have chronic pain syndrome following extensive foot surgery. I have tried amitriptyline, and now trying nortriptyline as recommended by the GP as he says that the side effects will be less. The physio has suggested pregabalin but I am reluctant to take it. Has anyone taken

Dopamine Patch versus tablets your experience?
Hi, I am seeking your experience as to whether Patches are safe and do or do not cause more complications than the tablets. I was diagnosed with PD 6 years ago and my Neurologist has suggested a Neupro patch 2mg/24h because I reported no real on and off periods on the Madopar tablets and no real difference

Role of Lactobacillus reuteri in Human Health and Diseases 2018
This is an interesting article. Apparently Lactobacillus reuteri creates B12 in your gut. And other things too, like balancing the microbiome and fixing dysbiosis. I just ordered my Dr Matthew #1 Probiotic that has Lactobacillus reuteri. What is interesting, and I will need to study this, is that the

Probiotics for Parkinson's disease: Current evidence and future directions 2020
So... I'm taking lactobacillus casei Shirota, which is both the probiotic used in the PD study that showed it helped with bowel movements and is also anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal. It has been shown to reduce the EBV titers in your system too. If you think PD is autoimmune

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and RLS - article
My recent sleep study concluded I have mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), in addition to RLS, of course. It turns out there is a higher than average prevalence of RLS in OSA patients (~8%), although they are not causally related. I am awaiting delivery and fitting of a CPAP machine (there

Stories of a Hospital Volunteer - "Smile" - 10 January 2022
Monday the 10th of January was my first visit to the hospital in 2022. I'd taken a lateral flow test that morning and was thankful the result was negative. Because of Covid, I’d heard that my usual ward was closed, and I was to go the floor below which was partially open for volunteers to visit. I was

PPMS and Stimulants
Greetings! I have been on Modafinil since my MS diagnosis in 2018. Also, I already had been taking Adderall for about 10+ years for adult ADHD. I do find the Modafinil is helpful for the fog. Is anyone else on either one of these meds for MS? If so, how are they working for you? Thank you! Gracy

Is inositol, hexaphosphate form, bad for CLL?
Hi, all. IP6 (a form of inositol called inositol hexaphosphate readily available as a supplement) has been shown to be very anti-cancer, including at least one blood cancer, AML I think. However, as I read about how it works, it seems to indicate that it increases or activates Bruton Tyrosine Kinase

About to start Duloxetine
Just wondering the best time of day to take Duloxetine? Prescribed 60mg daily. Any tips/comments will be much appreciated. Previously taken Gabapentin, came off that because it caused anxiety; tried Nortryptiline early in December and that seemed to make me quite ill with faintness/nausea. So I’m a bit

Tall Allen ?
I read in 1 of your previous posts that you were prescribed a sleep aid. If you would be so kind, I’d love to know what it is and whether or not there are any negatives/contraindications to it. Btw, I greatly value your contributions to this forum.
