Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

To Jan I thought I was going crazy on Mirapex. I would hear and see things that were not there, and the neurologist didn't believe me. I am so glad it was not just me! Mirapex not only made me hear and see things, I was nervous, anxious, angry alot about nothing, depressed, memory loss, could not re...

Hi guys, it's been a while since the last time I posted to this forum, but just like to check in now and again. I had the Novasure Ablation procedure done 2 weeks ago, piece of cake!! I had an iron infusion done in August, so hopefully I haven't lost too much of that. Since the infusion, my feretins...

Mark, the Lyrica didn't work for me at all. Then she put me on amitryptilene,(not sure about the spelling) anyway, it put me in the ER with a terrible muscle reaction. It felt like every muscle in my body was about 2 inches long! Needless to say, I put that in my little brown bag labeled "Medicines ...

Yesterday I went for an iron infusion, took about 2 1/2 hours, but last night I slept all night, very little leg movement, no creepy crawly sensations - WITH NO MEDICATION!!! I have not done that in over 7 years!! I would suggest if you're anemic, iron deficient have this done. I took iron pills unt...

WAM, you are good! I kept trying to think of something with Raltatoullie, but that was too hard!

I went back to the 2nd neuro and she put me on Lyrica and Clonazepam. On Wed evening I took my medicine as I should, but I didn't wake up until 2:30 THE NEXT AFTERNOON!!! I am also so irritable I could bite a nail into, snappy towards my children. I am calling my md today to discuss a hysterectomy. ...

Why is it so hard to find a decent dr.? My first neuro when I told him symptoms I was having on Mirapex looked at his nurse and said "We haven't heard of any of those have we" Of course her answer was "NO, dr. we haven't." So they were dismissed as just my imagination or something I made up. I have ...

And I did see your art and it is BEAUTIFUL - I couldn't do that if my life depended on it!! Your Uncle was right you are an artist in every sense of the word!! Elizabeth

Hi Tony, I too have rls complicated by iron deficiency. I am supposed to take iron tablets 4 times a day also prescription potassium which has been depleted because of my blood pressure medication. I don't think mine is as severe as hers by any means, but I kind of know what it likes as far as the r...

Hey June, where ya from? I thought only folks from down this way said Hi Ya'll!!Elizabeth

Hey Lynne, aren't you the one that said you were artistic? What medium? Elizabeth

Nadia, you certainly have had a rough time of it all to put it mildly! Was wondering if you could send a photo of Fidget? I love to draw animals. Just a thought, Elizabeth

Yeah, Mirapex was great when it worked! I wish I could find something like that again. Elizabeth

My dr. put me on Lyrica and told me take one Clonazepan but I only took 1/2 the clonazepato start with. I had no effect atfer several hours so I took the other half. Well, I slept approximately18 hours. My children had to wake me when they came home from school. Has anyone else had this type of reac...

Lynne it said in the article you are an artist, what do you do? I love to do animal portraits in graphite pencil. Elizabeth
