Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

good for you ct! I hope it works for you again. I've had to add some things,and take away things over the years but Klonopin is my must have. Years ago i would talk my Dr to switch me over to Resteral for awhile and take me off of klonopin. The first few times with the same doc it was 2 weeks, i was...

We're going to pray you get the right care so that you don't keep hurting yourself!
((hugs))

thanks charlene,and i guess were on the same med right? Isn't Klonopin another name for yours? I'm very pleased with it, i almost gave up on it a couple of times but i was just having a episode that had nothing to do with my Klonopin and i'm not real sure what to call these episodes yet. But i staye...

Could be the perc's are just a part of your answer. I take Klonopin(clonazapem) HS Ultram 2 at bedtime and up to 2 more during the day,i've found one little twitch or bug like feeling and i need to jump on it right away or it just goes bonkers. As a 3rd back up i may take Niquil. I sleep like a baby...

I couldn't take Requip or any of the other Parkinson's drugs. I would call my primary,always got a nurse to tell me Dr @## says to go back on Sinamet. Well,here's what i did. I marched my big butt in there everytime i was told that,of course with a appt.. and HMO's don't like all of those visits.I f...

so sorry for you injury.hey do you thinkyour pain meds are helping with the RLS?

WOW,I was in Dr Early's clinic for awhile!
I get alot of requests from them to do studies.

where's the list becat?

my bad experience was from (supposedly) the best of the best.
Hopkins!

hi becat! It's good to hear from you.I'm sorry your going without sleep right now. Have faith my friend,we'll pray it's just around the corner! Oh girl,your poor puppy,lol.I can so relate. When i don't sleep my 2 girls are so wiped out too. The one stares at me intensely,she's a cocker and they can ...

The only thing i can take is the Klonopin,i call that my main drug with a back up of Ultram and another backup of Niquil. Hey what can i say it works for me but everyone is different. I couldn't take any of the Parkinson's meds. Any chance your pain pill gave you the relief some nights? Some Doc's p...

what i've found is some of the drugs we need the primary doc's feel like they need back-up to keep giving them to you. So they might send you to a specialist,get the documentation and then keep treating you.Problem is when you go through a crisis period then they don't know what to do all over again.

I understand sleep deprivation can lead to all kinds of (perceived) mental illnesses. Only after you've gotten good sleep for awhile can that mental illness be determined.. I'm speaking from experience here. I was on every psych and antidepressant med you can think of for years and years until the D...

Hey Cris, You know i almost forgot. I have all of these weird white areas on my brain, there were several possible dx's,bottom line is we still don't know if it's MS or what.They say if it's MS it's the early stages. I know sometimes i can't remember really good friends names and my old dog before s...

LOVE your tude Hos! My dh is like that. It has to be a "manly" illness for him to get involved. Plus he's not a good speller and i can't stand it when people correct others.I say hey man as long as you can make it out get over it! I was at a local meeting about 3 weeks ago and there seemed to be equ...
