Common Questions and Answers about Tramadol and restless leg syndrome
ultracet
She has been taking carbidopa/levadopa and had probably increased the amount she takes as she seems to have the leg and arm continuously. At the onset, she is suffering a lot of pain and discomfort. She is wondering if the arm problem has started because of the carbidopa. She has had to sleep on the floor because of her discomfort. Soma seems to relax her a bit.
I guess my question is this. Is this all connected, arms and legs, or is it a symptom of something else.
i am interested in dialoguing with anyone about restless leg syndrome. i got it from tramadol. i am successfully dealing with symptoms with hylands restlful legs. however it is not resolving itself. everytime i exercise it returns in full force. it is not just an annoying thing that interupts sleep. for me, there is a greater feeling of disturbance. i get an add or adhd component. i can't concentrate and feel generally jumpy and unbalanced.
I developed what I think is restless leg syndrome 3 months after knee replacement surgery. In talking to a friend today, I found that she has had the same issues and she is taking the same antidepressant, citalopram. Has anyone ever heard of this drug causing these symptoms? I have been on citalopram for several years, and have not had many side effects until now. The symptoms are bad enough to interrupt my sleep.
t explain how they feel other than they are just so weak and weather I am laying down, walking or sitting, they ache and feel like restless leg syndrome. I decided to stop taking it for one reason I didn't want to be dependent on a drug to get me through the day. Also, I stayed constipated for days at a time. I have Xanax, but really don't want to take that either. If I do I'll take it to sleep. I have to go back to work tomorrow and I don't know how I will make it.
Hi,
Thanks for writing in. Restless leg syndrome is a common cause of painful legs. Restless leg syndrome also features worsening of symptoms during the early evening or later at night. The characteristic nighttime worsening of symptoms in persons with restless legs syndrome frequency leads to insomnia.
The cause of restless leg syndrome is unknown in most patients.
I hope you had a good night of sleep. The restless leg syndrome is oftentimes a part of the withdrawal process. When you get to such low dosages, withdrawal symptoms might surface. It sounds to me that you are decided to succeed and put this issue behind you, try these tips to alleviate the pain:
Try taking calcium supplements as that might help to ease the muscle aches.
Tramadol is a tough one. Since you took it for so long you probably should have done a slower taper. Anyway it may take a couple weeks to get your sleep back and the RLS to go away. Try eating a banana everyday....theres something called Hylands that OTC thats helps with the legs. A long hot bath before bed could help too. Good luck.
s a nightmare,the abstinency syndrome of the tramadol is an apoccalipsis, respiratoy problems, you can have convulsions,sweatting constantly, cough,restless leg syndrome,you can sleep,if you lay down you feelling shocking, jittery,anxious, depress, extremely sad,useless,muscles spams,chills and suddenly hot,etc.
I am 26 years old I suffer from chronic migraines. Supposedly I have restless leg syndrome. Since I had diagnose they have change my medication 3 times. At first the doctor prescribed me tramadol 50 mg, then she prescribed Requip 15 mg and now they prescribed me Meripex .0125 mg. My question is Why none of those medicines I just mentioned help me with the symptoms I have?
Hey there,
thankfully I don't have restless leg syndrome this time round! I had it before and OH MY GOD! it was annoying! I also suffer from insomnia at the moment too though so I am with you there, I am also just over 9 weeks! (hopefully) Anyways, I used to try a hot water bottle and things like that, right on your skin or a heat blanket, just for your legs though. The reason being, the restless leg syndrome is usually a sign of bad circulation!
