I was prescribed this on Tuesday, 30mg to start with. However I have been feeling quite drowsy and dizzy and have spent most of the last 2 nights awake for 3/4 hours at a time. I'm not sure if this medication is any good for me. I have also read alot about this since I was given it and have heard a lot

Serious case of PLMD
Hi everyone! First off, I dont really have restless legs syndrome, but I have something very similar called Periodic Limb Movement Disorder, which causes severe jerking of the legs as soon as I lay down to fall asleep! It is terribly disabling. Clonazepam is the drug of choice for this disorder, but

Seeking wisdom from those of you that have "been there done that"
Greetings! I hope you are all well (as can be expected) and safe! As I am nearing the end of my chemo treatments - 3 more to go! And will be needing surgery in the near(ish) future, how does one decide which surgery is best? I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer back in October. I had

Surgery and RA
Hello all, I’m relatively new here and really excited to find a lively and helpful community who know what it’s like to live with RA. I’ve had RA since 2004 and my symptoms are mostly under control with a combination of Benepali and Methotrexate. That was until Jan when I had to come off for a mastectomy

Unilateral Mastectomy Regret
I had a unilateral mastectomy and I regret it everyday. My doctors encouraged me to not remove both because it wasn’t necessary and just because Angela Jolie did it, everyone had started doing it and it didn’t improve “quality of life”. I listened to them. I had no idea how disproportionate I would look

Provenge Combo with Enzalutamide
Not sure if this has been posted yet. Provenge in combo with Enzalutamide reduces risk of death by 45%. Median OS is 14.5 months vs. just 4 months with Provenge alone (This is what I recall, please tell me if it is significantly different). https://www.urotoday.com/conference-highlights/asco-gu-2020/

A Christmas to forget.
On the 14 December I got up as usual around 05.00Hrs, walked into my lounge tripped and fell on the hardwood floor. The result: a fractured femur. Somehow I managed to get to a phone to ring 111. After a major operation I was kept in hospital right up to the last day of Dec, simply because I lived alone

Suggestion for sleep aid
I’ve been listening to guided meditation for sleep. I look up free ones on YouTube. The link below is pretty good. https://youtu.be/uuzJffTliSc

How do I manage this strange sensation at night and not feel completely exhausted during the day?
How do I manage this strange sensation at night and not feel completely exhausted during the day? I have had RLS (undiagnosed) for a long time along with sleep paralysis when I eventually fall asleep. Started when I was about 16 and was manageable. But the past week it has come on with a vengeance...

Joint flare ups
Hello everyone hope you’re safe and well? My sister and I seem to follow the same patterns heathwise, so we compare notes unfortunately she’s in Devon and I’m in the North East. We are both hypothyroid and she takes 175 thyroxine per day and I 150. It seems to be more or less right. BUT we both have

Sleep apnea results
Hi had my telephone consultation with af nurse today and she gave me results of sleep apnea test saying was showing moderate she couldn’t say what they were going to do as it’s on the system, guess that means on hold till hospitals are back to normal. My question is to anyone who has apnea did you have

MSA and Stopping Breathing
I have sleep apnea and I stop breathing during the daytime as well. Interesting experience during my hour long dental procedure: the oral surgeon woke me four times saying “breathe Kevin, breathe Kevin”.

I know arnica interacts with warfarin but struggling to find out how or if theres any specific interaction with dalterparin. Does anyone have experience or any pointers
