RLS - Q&A
Hi RLS survivors I am continuing my Pregabalin journey and wanted to check in with this community to ask out loud various questions circling around my head. The good news is that Pregabalin is making a difference. I get some relief from jumpy legs at night even on a low dose (75mg) What I am experiencing

the curse of lifelong RLS…
I have had RLS for 33 years, I am 63 now with two grown up daughters. My symptoms first presented when I was pregnant, they were annoying but relatively intermittent and manageable - this is how it continued for many years with symptoms presenting during the night. I coped without medication, massaging

Can Low Iron levels be caused by under medication for hypothyroidism
I recently had a blood test for a suspected DVT which turned out to be negative but the hospital rang and left a message on my phone to say that they had found that my iron levels were low and I should see my GP asap which of course I did. The GP thought the levels were due to a internal bleeding and

Ropinirole withdrawal
Hi all, newbie here. I was prescribed Ropinirole about 6 months ago, in May my ankles started to swell and got burning sensation in my feet. Saw GP again and he said it is probably diabetic neuropathy but my sugars are well controlled, anyway he put me on amitriptyline. Either of these meds was making

Erfa swap update
my ferritin has just come back as 28 (5-204) I think this is my iron store so it’s clearly deficient. I’ve struggled with anaemia since I was about 18 (maybe before but no cause before then for a blood test it was discovered when I became a donor) No one has ever given me a reason for this! And I

Update re: Total Confusion about Ferritin (Medichecks) Results!
As promised to Seaside Susie, and 6 months later, please see below response I've had from Medichecks. I'm just sad it didn't come in time for Seaside Susie to see that they had eventually listened to us! It is an improvement on the previous reference range for over 60yrs females but it raises more questions

Mosquito bites and low iron
Hi everyone just a wee update the mosquitoe bites slowly disappearing still got a few scabs. Will find out today if my iron level any better but what I will say is the restless leg syndrome starting to ease so maybe it was lack of iron after all. I slept the whole day yesterday first sleep I've had in

Genetic/familial RLS
Genetic/familial rls respond to iron in the same way? Just found out that my sister suffers from rls and we feel that our father may have. I have taken three months of iron with no improvement at all in fact, the rls is worsening. I am about to request a recheck of iron panel. Just wondered,

Guidance for RLS
Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum and am so glad to have found you. I have suffered with RLS for years, and in the past year, it's become pretty severe. I get VERY little sleep. Currently, I'm taking Gabapentin and Magnesium Glycinate, but neither are helping--yet. I did take Carbidopa-Levodopa for

Just looking for help like most of you.
I have been lurking here and on other sites, hoping to find some path to reduce or eliminate if possible my PLMD. I think I have had it for many years, but was officially diagnosed with it during an in lab sleep study I had recently. They found mild sleep apnea which is now well controlled with CPAP
