Mark............Thanks for all you do I will miss you~~~~~~~~Lyndarae

I am so sorry to hear about all the weather problems we are having. I will never understand mother nature and her fury on things and the way mankind has caused alot of these problems, one year its a drought and the next flooding. It is something as humans we need to work on as far as our envirment g...

hey Char, I have never heard them called nettie pots. But I think I was telling Lynne about the same thing, someone correct me if I am wrong here. What I bought at riteaid is somethinng called NEILMED sinus rinse. Its a bottle that has little packets of what I believe to be backing soda and somethin...

HMMMMM Well I have been thinking about cutting back on it, years ago the clonapin worked fine for me alone, but that was years ago!!! But I think I am going to cut back by 1/2 tab every other night for a week and see how things go...
I hate being this uncomfortable in my own fat skin.........

Just wondering if anyone else is going through this??? I take my mirapex at night about a half hour before I plan (PLAN) ha ... to go to sleep. I swear I am not the lest bit hungry and within 15 minutes of taking it I get hungry and have to fight with myself not to eat. When I first started the Mira...

I wish I could afford a sleep study>>>> I was sleeping alright for a while but now I wake up about every hour, and then it takes me about 30 minutes to get back to sleep. But I am wondering if anyone else has this weird thing about waking up at 3:30 am? I do it all the time, no matter what time I do...

HI Mark, and thanks for posting. I guess I am one of the lucky ones because Mirapex has worked for me for sometime now. But I also take Vicodin and do worry about the acetaminphen and all the other side effects. It's so hard to choose between the rls and the meds? But going without sleep for long pe...

Yeah Jan, I love you no matter what ,and your feelings are very real and understood by me, I just hate to hear it out loud you know we are all so good at being fine, as women we are always fine...... something we are taught I guess. But I agree with you totally about lack of sleep and dreams, dang I...

Dear Jan, Your post nearly broke my heart and left me spechless(imagine that) Never have I read any of your posts that sounded so hopeless at the end. I read it about 2or3am who knows the time anymore. I so clearly remember years ago my husband and daughters told me they could not feel comfortable i...

Thanks, dude, I have a lot of difficulties figuring things out, last night I had to restore everything, dont know how I do what I do or even when I am able to fix it I couldnt tell you how I did it........one thing tho I am learning...........

For me RLS.... is worse in the winter, when I am cold I tense up and this makes me ache all the more and even in the dead heat of summer my feet are always like two blocks of ice. I go barefoot all summer long. I can also tell when ever there is snow or rain comming cause my rls gets worse.............
