Guest guest Posted January 1, 1999 Report Share Posted January 1, 1999 Hi Pat, You ask has anyone else experienced estrogen/rls problems. Yes, yes, yes! My RLS didn't even exist untill I started Premarin/Provera 2 1/2 years ago. It took about 6 months before I really noticed any symptoms of RLS. I ask both my GYN and Internist if there could possibly be a link between the two. Of course not! While in a menopause support group online I learned of the various types of estrogen one can take. In August 1998 I asked my GYN to switch me to Estratab which is plant based. It took about two months as I recall for the symptoms to really tame themselves down. Now I'm doing remarkably well. I do still take .5mg of Ativan before going to bed nightly. Now if I can just solve the continuous pain and swelling in the right back side of my neck that also brings on headaches and muscle spasms which has been going on since I hit my head on the bottom of a swimming pool this past June. I'm curious, Pat, what dosage of Premarin does the doctor have you on now? Pat, 49, Indiana, soon to be 48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
