Has anyone ever defeated RLS?
Has anyone either found a medication or had an
iron
infusion and been "cured" completely? If not, what helps control it, how long you've taken/used it for? Has anyone ever had a GP or healthcare provider understand what RLS is and how to treat it from the first visit?

Help with blood test results, please
:) Could do with your expertise please: TSH 5.13 miu/L (0.27-4.2) FT4 14.5 pmol/L (10.5-22.0) FT3 3.8 pmol/L (3.1-6.8) Also had
iron
, vits B12 and D3 checked - all in normal range, but look to be on the lower end of each 'normal' range.

From oxy to buprenorphine
I had my
iron
levels tested and all is good, not a candidate for infusion. Dr. Buchfuhrer suggested I switch from oxycodone to buprenorphine and tonight I did. Was nervous to go off of Oxy as it worked, but I noticed it was wearing off earlier and earlier.

Missing video
therapy, however the
iron
therapy doesn't stop the disease, and the antipsychotic and antidepressant have caused unwanted effects in the brain and are getting ignored, I'm told by police her brain is stuffed, these medications have this effect on RLS patients, dose anyone know what video I'm talking

need advice
I know I’m not absorbing it and I have had the same problem with
iron
. I’ve had gastroscopies which show chronic gastritis. This has been going on for 25 years and I feel I’ve always been existing and never felt 100% well.

Speechless by my GP’s response
I messaged my GP surgery and requested a full thyroid blood test (not just TSH which is all I’ve been able to get since COVID) as well as
iron
, vits B and D tests. I’ve been feeling really rotten, and want to look at every potential reason.

Low iron test results and a way forward please
Is it possible that the parietal cell antibodies could be preventing my body absorbing
iron
from these capsules or might I simply need a lot more
iron
than I can get through oral
iron
supplementation? Is an
iron
infusion the answer?

If a person in the UK hires a physician say at the
Iron
Clinic in Cambridge can that physician order tests and those tests are covered by NHS?

Success Story (so far, anyway)
Docs were a little useless but again research here helped a lot, and I slowly weaned off of it- took 6-8 months to fully get off the drug, and meanwhile tried the usual range of medications and alternative therapies- klonopin, gabapentin, pregabalin,
iron
tablets,
iron
infusions, acupuncture, deep massage

I have some side effects, like headache, bowels not as bad as with gabapentin, I’m hoping these will pass, my question is should I be taking
iron
tablets, I do take multivitamins in the morning.
