Newbie, hi
I'm 60. I was diagnosed 1 month ago with RLS. I've had symptoms since I was about 13 years old. I'm taking Pregabalin and have just moved onto my clinical dose. I'm not enjoying the side effects but hope they will pass. My life has been one of dealing with excessive daytime sleepiness, mental health

Weaning off Prednisolone after miscarriage
Hi Ladies, Sorry for another question, but I have been on 20mg of Steroids for 6/7 weeks since my transfer. Sadly my pregnancy ended in a mmc and I have been advised to wean myself off the steroids. The clinic haven't been too clear about what that means. I was taking 4 5mg tablets per day, and just

Zolpidem users: a debilitating surprise awaits at 65
I took Zolpidem (a.k.a., Ambien) for 12 years. Last spring my doctor cut off my prescription without discussion. Around the same time my brother's doctor cut his prescription from 10mg to 5mg without discussion. At same time a fellow employee of my brother had her prescription cut off – without discussion

Painkillers for nerve pain / side effects
I am a 71 yo male with PAF / exercise induced AF, which doesn’t overly affect me too much. I am fairly active and a regular cyclist. Recently I have been suffering with a trapped > irritated Femoral Nerve in my Left leg. This is quite painful at times and keeps me awake at night. I have been attending

lorazepam effect in elderly
my father (89) has just been prescribed Lorazepam- he has dementia and has nightmares at night and poor sleep. The lorazepam seems to help him sleep but he’s in a terrible state during the day, very disoriented and depressed- he’s been on it 4 days and I’m worried - my question is should he keep taking

I've decided to go with eight donor frozen oocytes and fertilise with fresh semen next week. Has anyone gone down this route?
The donor produced and froze 18 oocytes three weeks ago. So I'm hoping that means it's a lot stronger. Please do Share your stories especially if you are using the same method. I'm currently on progynova to prepare the lining of the womb and would appreciate any good tips or suggestions

Liothyronine and cellulite
Hi, just curious to know whether anyone else has experienced cellulite after taking T3 and if so have they found anything that helps reduce its appearance. Since being on T3 for a year I’ve developed significant cellulite on my legs and also weight gain - rather odd as it is supposed to increase cell

zonisamide for parkinson's
There are many articles available on the subject. Recently I came across a fresh article regarding this epilepsy drug use for PD. According to the article it significantly reduces the off-time and also results in the improvement of overall UPDRS score https://parkinsonsnewstoday.com/news/zonisamide-for-epilepsy-may-ease-parkinsons-motor-symptoms-study

Stopped smoking, stopped having seizures

Big, big trouble Houston
I’m 60 now but a guy so I’m still prone to daft things like buying Microsoft Flight Simulator. I flew a 747 the other day and blimey did it let me know when I tried a questionable manoeuvre. Red lights, Commercial Airliner Crash Warning sirens etc. Well it’s sort of a metaphor for me currently. Some

Ever heard of hydrosalpinx? Neither had I.
Hello We've had 7 egg pickups in the last 18 months. As a result we have 2 x frozen embryos'. We had 1 x chemical pregnancy. And then 6 months ago I learned I had hydrosalpinx. I also have Stage 4 endo which is chronic and has grown back after having it removed 5 years ago. So on Wednesday, I'm pleased

Clonazepam for freezing gait?
My husband's CBD has progressed to the point where he can hardly walk at all, even holding on to me. Getting him down the hall to the toilet and back to his lift chair is challenging. He drags his left foot and every few steps he freezes and can't continue for several seconds. I'm wondering if clonazepam

RLS or sleep myoclonus?
I suspect I may have RLS. I meet all the criteria re: urge to move, worse at bedtime, etc. But I can’t say I have “creepy-crawly” or “fizzy” sensations. For me it’s like I can feel this tension building up in a muscle and I need to stretch or twitch to relieve the feeling. I also get a lot of involuntary

Trelstar
My urologist changed my eligard injections to Trelstar without my knowledge. It was given subq instead of IM as prescribed. Is that a problem?

Getting a good night's sleep
Many people living with chronic pain report difficulties with sleep. Pain makes getting comfortable in bed harder and can delay falling asleep. It can also reduce sleep continuity, which means increasing the amount of times you wake at night and waking you earlier than usual in the morning. Understandably

Coming off Mirapex
Hi I have been taking mirapex for 10 + years. I have been instructed by my restless leg doctor I need to wean off the Mirapex. I am having terrible withdrawal symptoms, was wondering how long these symptoms will go on before I start to feel better? Thank you
