Daytime RLS
Does anyone have any advice on dealing with RLS during the day? I take 300mg of Pregabalin at night, which helps at night (normally). Recently, the RLS is coming back very badly around lunchtime, and lasts all afternoon, every day, without respite. As you can imagine, it is affecting me pretty badly

Wasting GP’s Time, so it seems
I saw my GP on Thursday. I took another copy of the Mayo Clinic guidelines with me.When I told him about the tingling and aching in my legs, he examined then with a Doppler, he did not do a neurological exam.I explained the guidelines would suggest the need for an iron infusion considering my nightly

zinc and magnesium dosage

Acne and thyroid issues
Hi, I have hypothyroidism that I am not able to manage because with 75mg one day and 100mg the other day I was at TSH equal to 4 and acne free. They put me on levothyroxine 100mg everyday and after 6 weeks I became with TSH equal to 0.2 and T4 super high; with these values I also get acne, expecially

iron panel
quick question lovely knowledgeable people. Has anyone improved their iron panel results by using Ancestral grass fed liver supplements? I know they are mega expensive so I’m asking for any comments before they buying it. I’ve tried 3 arrows before. 🙏

I'm Alive!
I had heard that some of you were looking for me. I have not been on too much these past few months as I had completely crashed, completely non-functional, with a severe case of iron deficiency. I apologize for not posting what was going on with me sooner. But the severe, severe fatigue just did

rls and leg weakness
This is a response to another post asking about correlation of RLS and numb hands and feet. I think there is a connection. However there are so many other possible explanations. A search of "nerveguard MD" does list RLS. But more common comorbidity explanations are pinching nerve fibers from carpel

Hi all, I've been on a reduced levothyroxine dose of 125mcg for the last 8 weeks and i stopped taking the iron tablets as my stomach was too painful, so for the past 7 weeks i've been using an iron patch. My dr agreed to retest my iron as i didn't want to be wasting my time and money if the patches
