usual dose of gabapentin not enough
After more than a year and a half of being on gabapentin (with good results) after coming off of ropinirole (4mg) my usual dose of gabapentin (1200 mg) isn’t working and I am waking up in the night with terrible RLS. I am (as I have always been) splitting the dose into two, taking gentle iron every

interesting find
has anyone tried grass fed beef liver supplements. I’m wondering if these freeze dried capsules would be beneficial because of the vitamins and minerals in them as I don't seem to be able to keep my levels of anything up without supplementing. As soon as I stop they seem to drop again quite quickly ,

Correctly written prescription...do they exist? 🫤
My pharmacist requested that I get my prescription altered to state Vencamil now that Aristo has been dropped by Alliance to stave of future confusion ( it currently mentions both)... I did say that I had tried in the past to get it named but they say that they can't... So I spoke with the Surgery and

Daytime RLS
Does anyone have any advice on dealing with RLS during the day? I take 300mg of Pregabalin at night, which helps at night (normally). Recently, the RLS is coming back very badly around lunchtime, and lasts all afternoon, every day, without respite. As you can imagine, it is affecting me pretty badly

Help with iron results - follow up from 3 arrows nutra
Hi everyone, I did an iron panel and I’m quite amazed with my ferritin level. I have been lax with my iron supps since going to T3 only and thought I would definitely have ranked my previously low results. To my disbelief, my ferritin is the highest I’ve ever seen it! I was previously taking the 3 arrows

Wasting GP’s Time, so it seems
I saw my GP on Thursday. I took another copy of the Mayo Clinic guidelines with me.When I told him about the tingling and aching in my legs, he examined then with a Doppler, he did not do a neurological exam.I explained the guidelines would suggest the need for an iron infusion considering my nightly

Acne and thyroid issues
Hi, I have hypothyroidism that I am not able to manage because with 75mg one day and 100mg the other day I was at TSH equal to 4 and acne free. They put me on levothyroxine 100mg everyday and after 6 weeks I became with TSH equal to 0.2 and T4 super high; with these values I also get acne, expecially

iron panel
quick question lovely knowledgeable people. Has anyone improved their iron panel results by using Ancestral grass fed liver supplements? I know they are mega expensive so I’m asking for any comments before they buying it. I’ve tried 3 arrows before. 🙏

Is it needed and safe for my mom to supplement with folate or B12?
Hi all! I haven't posted before but I've been reading for a few months and find everything really helpful. My mom has had both chemotherapy and radiation this last year, and now has many overlapping symptoms with b12 and folate deficiencies (fatigue, mild neuropathy for years, mild memory loss/confusion

I had heard that some of you were looking for me. I have not been on too much these past few months as I had completely crashed, completely non-functional, with a severe case of iron deficiency. I apologize for not posting what was going on with me sooner. But the severe, severe fatigue just did
