Re: Reversing Restless Leg Syndrome
The burning in your legs sounds like neuropathy. Mine is controlled with pregabalin though I know you don't want to take any medications.
6/7 hours sleep is a blessing.
I also use a cpap machine and it changed my life.

Re: Methadone on backorder for nearly a month!
Views, I am so happy for you. It must have been such a nervous time waiting until it was in your hands.
As you say, now to work n your stash. I am fortunate. I use less (cocodamol) than prescribed and my stash steadily increases.

Re: Methadone on backorder for nearly a month!
This is so awful that meds are unavailable to this extent..
That you spend hours on the phone getting nowhere.... the frustration is soul destroying, while also trying to cope with uncontrolled symptoms.
I feel so much for all of you.

Re: Codeine
I am in the UK and my Dr nearly had a fit when methadone was suggested. I'm fortunate that the cocodamol at max dose works for me.
Bear in mind that medication for rls works best if taken in advance of symptoms.

Re: Codeine
I have been a sufferer for 40 years and if untreated I would have rls pretty much 24/7. I am prescribed cocodamol 30/500 x 2 by 4 times daily. Mostly I only take it 3 times. Occasionally taking one during the night. I am also prescribed pregabalin 300mg twice daily for neuropathy and this has the be...
