Made it through the "holiday" (many thanks for your support) - what now?
I am on day 40 of my rehab, first 15 days of a "holiday" from Pram (I hate the term because the experience is really is the torture of sleep deprivation, but I am thankful for the support I received from many of you), 25 days searching for a combination of meds and dosages to replace Pram. I live in

Neurology, Oxycodone, and only two days until I finally give up Ropinirole!
Hello all I’ve not been able to post earlier as I was without Internet access for three weeks – what did we do before we had it!!! I am now down to 0.25mg Ropinirole. I’m glad I didn’t keep reducing when I was coming up to the concert (which went well enough!). But reduced that night and again six

Alternative treatments for RLS.
Hi mtm19,Tim61, I posted recently about withdrawing from Pramipexole, which I’m doing at the moment, not very nice. My GP eventually discovered I was suffering with myoclonic jerks, not restless leg syndrome. I saw him yesterday’ & he has agreed to try keppra ( levetiracetam) 250mg at night. I took

Medications and Sweets Syndrome
My wife has become my advocate after the last episode in hospital back in May. It was just to be a 4 hr stay. I was given heparin to before the procedure to prevent clotting as one had formed where the hole in the heart was being repaired. Unfortunetly the heparin caused the Sweets to rear its ugly head

problems with preterm labor because of Polyhydramnios?
I was diagnosed suddenly at 26 weeks with Polyhydramnios I gained 14 pounds in two weeks from 24 to 26. Had a anatomy scan done to see my son has part of his intestines outside of his body but in a sac to protect them, he will need surgery when he’s born. There was no other indication of why I have Polyhydramnios

Restless sleep
Does anyone else experience restless sleep and take any supplements or natural rememdies to counteract it? By restless I mean that I toss and turn quite a bit and kick my legs. It doesn’t really wake me but it disturbs my partner. I’m going to up my dosage of CBD oil to a full dropper per night rather

Mucuna Puriens
Was just reading a post from the Parkinsons Movement side of Health Unlocked regarding the use of Mucuna root. I took myself off of Mirapex and use Mucuna Puriens for my dopamine needs, Valerian Root and melatonin for sleep. Anyone else using supplements rather than pharma y?

How do I get corticosteroid prescription before diagnosis of condition?
Hi there, Over the past 2 months I've experienced a rapid shrinkage of seemingly cartilage (but perhaps bone) everywhere in my body. The doctors at first thought I was making it up but now the signs are too much to ignore. A specialist agreed that there is an issue but he couldn't diagnose it at the

Which therapy helped you the most?
Can people say which of these helped them the most? I don't think there's an option for adding a poll. Dopamine agonists: These are most often the first medicines used to treat RLS. These drugs, including pramipexole (Mirapex), rotigotine (Neupro), and ropinirole (Requip), act like the neurotransmitter

Does anyone know about Flecainide and Nebivolol together?
Hi, I'm new here but it's time for me to 'jump in'. I have been following the posts on here for a while now, finding them both interesting and informative, sometimes even quite amusing. A few weeks ago the decision was made to change my 50mg flecainide PIP to a regular dose (2 x 50mg) one in the morning

Anyone here with negative ANA results?
Hi, I've recently seen a consultant at the Royal Infirmary in Glasgow, who tells me that he is highly confident that I don't in fact have scleroderma, mainly based on the fact that my ANA results were negative. I'm not 100% convinced as I thought there was a reasonably high false negative rate. Does

Slowing down on Ropinirole withdrawal
Sorry not to have posted my report on withdrawing from Ropinirole at the beginning of the week but a) things weren’t that great and b) I was so busy that I didn’t have a spare minute before needing to be away for meetings for three days. Things haven’t been great as Tramadol, on the three occasions

Could this solve recurring UTIs that many of us suffer with?
Saw a lovely new GP today who may have struck gold re why I have been thwarted with recurrent UTIs for three years. Sometimes, even though there is blood in urine, results show no presence of UTI. So I was fast tracked for cancer tests, however all came back negative - thank goodness. So went to see
