RLS AND OPIATES
I HAVE FOUND THROUGH ACCIDENT THAT DIHYDROCODEINE CONTINUS WORKS SUPERBLY FOR MY RLS BUT CANNOT GET ANY GP TO PRESCRIBE THIS ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE PRESCRIBED MANY PARKINSON RELATED DRUGS ALL OF WHICH HAVE HAD TERRIBLE SIDE EFFECTS. THE ONLY SIDE EFFECT WITH DHC IS CONSTIPATION (EASILY REMEDIED). MEANWHILE

I wanted to share this infomation, made the pain thing a little more understandable for me
Sometimes
opiates
will provide relief, sometimes not. Sometimes
opiates
combined with anti-depressants helps, sometimes not. Sometimes subcutaneous injections of the dopaminergic apomorphine into the region of pain helps, sometimes not.

For more severe pain pure
opiates
(for example, dihydrocodeine) may be appropriate although these must be used with caution in view of their addictive nature, risk of abuse and the build up of tolerance.

A Better Life Without Sugar
Similar to recreational drug use, sugar has been shown to increase brain concentrations of dopamine and
opiates
which have a significant influence on mood.

In my case that also includes
opiates
to just 'dull' my system enough to 'semi' pass out when its at its worse. I have had to sacrifice alcohol for this but I find it a good swap!

New to Asthma at 52 and phobic about choking!
Hi! I have spent 23 years suffering from chronic back pain and it has often been pretty horrendous along my journey through life. However, most of the time I remain positive and indeed would probably say I am a pretty humourous and outgoing person except when the pain really kicks in. I have a spinal

What a day
I went with a friend to Omaha (50 miles away) to Laurentzen Gardens and we walked through the building and then on a path all the way to the gate at the end. I had my coat unzipped until the return walk. It was probably about 55 degrees but there was a breeze. The Gardens are so beautiful, at all times
