We answered this question in this thread previously, the answer is no, RLS/WED does not necessarily keep progressing and we do not necessarily need higher and higher doses. Read again the comments and don't assume the current rate of worsening, which has been exacerbated by the Mirapex.does RLS always progress requiring higher dose
It is pointless to ponder 10 years from now when you may be hit by a bus tomorrow. Or more relevantly, research is ongoing and there will definitely be better options in 10 years than there are now. (Compare now to 10 yrs ago).
Again, catastrophic thinking. Avoid constipation by eating lots of veggies, or if worse comes to worse, throw some cooking bran on your breakfast every morning and drink a big glass of water with it. Lots of us take opioids and have no constipation because we adjust our diets.probably go from daily loose stools or diarrhea to constipation, great now that will really screw up everything too
And - you probably should stay off the forums! You're picking the bad stuff to remember and not the good stuff! Like the fact that WED does not progress in any noticeable fashion for many of us, nor do we need to keep raising doses. Remember the good stuff!
