Anyone With RLS?

[THAT Gurl]

what is a high dose for Gaba? I take 400mg at night instead of Ibuprofen.

A couple years back, my ortho prescribed it to me for sciatica and I had some side effects and stopped/wouldn't take it, especially with driving the big brown truck.

I'm taking a total of 3600mg/day. So ... You lightweight! That said I kinda believe it really depends on how long you've been taking it more than how much, to a point. I stopped and started again a few times before I got past the side effects. Especially back when I was still working. That groggy feeling was hard to adjust to. Now it doesn't cause me any mental fogginess at all.

We treated my mother’s RLS with cannabis bath milk. The only thing that really helped. Used it for years.

I been having these dang leg cramps at night for the past week or so. Wake my butt up a couple times a night.

Are you on statins for cholesterol?

Yup have been for probably 2/3 my life.

And yes I'll have conversations with my health care professionals.

Lots of cardiologists recommended co-q 10 for cramps related to statins. Good luck

I was on the minimum dosage and the damn stuff kept me groggy all day and did nothing for the pain.

I tried Lyrica once. I went to the moon and back in a little red wagon with sidepipes and a jet engine. It was a cool trip but I said never again. Now I'm listed as allergic to Lyrica and Gabapentin.

Dadgummit, y'all keep telling me about all these "adventures" you go on when you take certain meds. And I got NUFFIN' outta the deal. I'm telling ya ... It ain't fair ...
