More failed medication attempts
So this week I'm trying codeine and/or ambien. The codeine is 15 mg and seems to have no real effect (there might be a slight effect) and whatever it does doesn't last very long (seems to wear off after an hour), also gave me head aches. I think I actually slept better on the ambien (didn't feel as groggy

For a while i have been waking up in the night choking like my heart had missed a beat and then started again once i woke up. I went to my previous doctor about this a while ago and he said it could not be sleep apnea because i was not overweight.This is happening more and more now and i am afraid to

There is hope for all who suffer from diabetes, hypertension, sleep disorders, depression etc. ......
Diabetes and other lifestyle / psychosomatic diseases like high blood pressure, insomnia, depressive tendencies etc. can best be controlled by Pranayama which is yogic life force control. Many people think that Pranayama is breath control, but it isn't that. Breath is merely the medium, what you aim

I have just come back from a GP appointment to get some more cholestagel. He asked if I would mind speaking to a fifth year medical student and he left the room. What an opportunity to tell the next generation of doctors about statin side effects, risk versus benefits, the disparity of genetic testing

The doctor has just put me on Rasagiline does anybody know anything about this drug what can I expect?
At the moment I am on mirtazipine 30 mg./day this is suppose to stop anxiety but it does help me sleep at night a bit better, but apart from that it does not seem to help. I have tried the dopamine drugs but they do not affect me. i have no tremor but freeze a lot when trying

So for years I thought extreme fatigue & exhaustion was just my HypoT.....want to tell you guys in case its a possibility for you too!!!!
Hi all, I'm now almost 42, & have been diagnosed as HypoT since I was about 23. For years I have been struggling with extreme exhaustion, went private, tried Armour (which worked much better) even got it prescribed on the NHS (for a time, till I moved!!!) But never felt right......every day is a struggle

No success with klonopin.
Tried klonopin for a week. Made me groggy in the morning, hard to get out of bed, and drowsy all day. Also made me a little bit depressed. So I've stopped taking it. Waiting to see if the doctor wants to try something with a shorter half-life/duration of action, like ambien or xanax or lunesta. Not sure

Sleepless Nights...
I honestly don't know how much more I can take. I'm so close to tears... Tears of fustration. I have so much trouble sleeping, it's ridiculous and the doctors aren't helping ... I don't understand what more I need to do to get help from them. Do I need to have a week of no sleep? Do I need to be drastic

Fenofibrate almost crippled me And I only took it for 18 days...........MOST pain left after stopping fenofibrate for 3 days, except left knee pain. This stuff should be outlawed.

SLEEP PROBLEMS
This has no doubt been discussed before but I haven't really used this site much yet and so haven't found it. My PD is reasonably controlled during the day but I dread going to bed! As soon as I get in to bed I am uncomfortable, mainly because of my leg which has the tremor. The tremor gets less
