RLS and surgery
As I have previously indicated, I take Belbuca buccal patch for my RLS. I am scheduled for hip replacement surgery in the near future. Recently I have seen several posts stating that any surgery will cause increased RLS . Honestly, I am now very concerned and anxious about this. Because I take Belbuca

tear in my meniscus cartilage
What a difference two weeks can make. Two weeks ago I you asked if I should attempt a taper to try to force my adrenals to wake up. The circumstances were not very good and you advised me to leave it for a while so I took your advice. A few days later I somehow got a tear in the cartilage of my knee

RLS worse after knee replacement
I've taken Pramipexole for a long time and it's worked. However, after recent knee replacement surgery (7th Feb), the RLS is driving me mad. I'm up every night after 1 or 2 hours' sleep and end up taking an opioid to settle it.Can the pain from the knee be causing it? Any advice welcome.

Decision to make
Hi, I’ve been told I need to have a valve replacement and can’t make my mind up between a mechanical valve and Ross procedure. I’m 46 so if I have the Ross procedure I’ll need to get another replacement in 20 years or so. The mechanical valve looks like it will make my diet complicated , I need to reduce

Getting worse
I have been on gabapentin for several years and this was just beginning to be less effective when I had a hip replacement. My rls got very bad and my gp added in ropinerole 1mg which I take at 8.30pm. This means a great night but increasingly I am having symptoms in the afternoon and evening. Any advice
