It depends on the syndrome.  \n\nGenerally we define a syndrome as a condition for which an etiology is not known.  We understand that there is something wrong, but we do not know why it is happening.  For example, in the 1980's, it was clear that certain people would develop a depressed immune system, but not clear why.  We still call that condition Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome or AIDS, although we now know it to be caused by HIV, and could properly call it HIV disease.\n\nThere is Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Turner Syndrome, Asperger's Syndrome, Fahr's Syndrome, etc.  \n\nMost syndromes don't have treatments per se, because if we don't know what is causing the problem, we have a hard time treating it.

Find out why you are having it. Demend testing not just medicine to treat the symtoms. My doctor gave me an ENG and a tilt table test. There are also other medicines like transdermal scopolamine that works well, its a patch for the back of the ear and it stays on for 3 days. Also the meclizine works too. If its a problem in your inner ear there are surgical options to fix the problem if it gets so bad that you can't function. If you aren't satisfied with the treatment that you are getting from your doctor then see another doctor because you need to find out what is causing the problem.\n\nGood luck!

you could try a heating pad. I just went to see the doctor for the same thing and now I am on a muscle relaxant. He also suggested physiotherapy. I found those new heating patches to be quite effective.

How is restless legs syndrome treated?\n\n\n\nAlthough movement brings relief to those with RLS, it is generally only temporary. However, RLS can be controlled by finding any possible underlying disorder. Often, treating the associated medical condition, such as peripheral neuropathy or diabetes, will alleviate many symptoms. For patients with idiopathic RLS, treatment is directed toward relieving symptoms. \n\nFor those with mild to moderate symptoms, prevention is key, and many physicians suggest certain lifestyle changes and activities to reduce or eliminate symptoms. Decreased use of caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco may provide some relief. Physicians may suggest that certain individuals take supplements to correct deficiencies in iron, folate, and magnesium. Studies also have shown that maintaining a regular sleep pattern can reduce symptoms. Some individuals, finding that RLS symptoms are minimized in the early morning, change their sleep patterns. Others have found that a program of regular moderate exercise helps them sleep better; on the other hand, excessive exercise has been reported by some patients to aggravate RLS symptoms. Taking a hot bath, massaging the legs, or using a heating pad or ice pack can help relieve symptoms in some patients. Although many patients find some relief with such measures, rarely do these efforts completely eliminate symptoms \n\nPhysicians also may suggest a variety of medications to treat RLS. Generally, physicians choose from dopaminergics, benzodiazepines (central nervous system depressants), opioids, and anticonvulsants. Dopaminergic agents, largely used to treat Parkinson's disease, have been shown to reduce RLS symptoms and PLMD and are considered the initial treatment of choice. Good short-term results of treatment with levodopa plus carbidopa have been reported, although most patients eventually will develop augmentation, meaning that symptoms are reduced at night but begin to develop earlier in the day than usual. Dopamine agonists such as pergolide mesylate, pramipexole, and ropinirole hydrochloride may be effective in some patients and are less likely to cause augmentation. \n\nIn 2005, ropinirole became the only drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration specifically for the treatment of moderate to severe RLS. The drug was first approved in 1997 for patients with Parkinson’s disease. \n\nBenzodiazepines (such as clonazepam and diazepam) may be prescribed for patients who have mild or intermittent symptoms. These drugs help patients obtain a more restful sleep but they do not fully alleviate RLS symptoms and can cause daytime sleepiness. Because these depressants also may induce or aggravate sleep apnea in some cases, they should not be used in people with this condition. \n\nFor more severe symptoms, opioids such as codeine, propoxyphene, or oxycodone may be prescribed for their ability to induce relaxation and diminish pain. Side effects include dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and the risk of addiction. \n\nAnticonvulsants such as carbamazepine and gabapentin are also useful for some patients, as they decrease the sensory disturbances (creeping and crawling sensations). Dizziness, fatigue, and sleepiness are among the possible side effects. \n\nUnfortunately, no one drug is effective for everyone with RLS. What may be helpful to one individual may actually worsen symptoms for another. In addition, medications taken regularly may lose their effect, making it necessary to change medications periodically.

I was prescribed Elmiron for IC but stopped taking it due to the fact that I was trying to get pregnant and it has a LOT of side effects. So far the best things for me are a pill like Detrol, (it helps lower the amount of times you have to go to the bathroom and also helps with bladder spasms) and I also take prescribed narcotic based pain medicine. Those two things, have helped give my life back. Do not be afraid to ask for help for pain relief if you have a lot of pain with your condition. If you are in severe pain, your body will not heal properly and depression can set in very quickly. I was on the brink of suicide before I went to one last doctor that actually helped me. This is a very real, and chronic disease and needs to be treated effectivley for you.

Migraine is a genetic neurological disease that there is NO cure for.  However, it can be managed by addressing preventive treatment, trigger management, abortive treatment, and general pain management.\n\nIf you are having a number of Migraines each month you and your doctor can consider using a prescription preventive or a combination of preventatives.  There are hundreds of them and finding the right one is a lot of trial and error.\n\nThere are non-prescription preventatives too.  300mg of Co enzyme Q-10 a day has been shown to a good preventative.  There is also Buttebur, Feverfew, Magnesium and Vitamin B12.  \n\nAvoiding potential Migraine triggers such as MSG, Aspartame, Chocolate, Certain Alcohols, aged cheese, fresh baked breads, etc.  are a good idea.\n\nTreating and aborting a Migraine as early as possible is key.  There are Migraine specific medications that can help.  Triptans, such as Imitrex, Amerge, and Frova and Ergotamines such as Migranal and DHE45 are some of them.  They come in a variety of delivery systems; tablets that you swallow, or a pill that dissolves under your tongue, nasal sprays or self-injections.\n\nThere is also one over-the-counter medicine that has been proven effective for treating a Migraine.  It's called "GelStat" and it is a liquid that you squirt under your tounge.  It contains feverfew to help relieve the pain and ginger to help with nausea.\n\nIf the pain of a Migraine cannot be controlled through the previous methods then analgesic both narcotic and non narcotic may be needed.  Some of these medications are Acetameniphin, Midrin, Fiorcet, Hydrocodone, NSAID's, and Demerol.

I know some one who had suffered from this problem, his was also due to M.S.. His eyes made small involuntary movements, but the condition seems to have disappeared. He is taking a virtually unknown prescription drug that is working miracles in people with M.S.and other autoimmune disorders, it is known as Low Dose Naltrexone. Doctor Bernard Bihari of New York City has been working with this drug since the 80's. and it is just now starting to get some attention. The second annual Low Dose Naltrexone Conference was held in Washington this year, you can hear the lectures off the web site. Because the monthly treatment cost is only $38 u.s. per patient don't expect any drug company involvement any time soon. A few private clinical trails have commenced world wide and the preliminary results are all quite promising. If you have not heard of this little know treatment yet. try clicking on the link below and start your research, it might be a viable option for you.\n\nAnother very important avenue you should explore when treating M.S. is neurotoxin damage both dietary and environmental. Things like monosodium glutamate, aspartame, heavy metals,food additives, preservatives, fungal and bacterial mycotoxins maybe causing or exacerbating your condition. Many M.S. sufferers have made their symptoms disappear by eliminating the above mentioned poisons from their body.\n\nBecause most packaged foods have M.S.G. (under a disguised category such as modified corn starch, spices, yeast extract, hydrolyzed vegetable protein etc.) I would stick to fresh organically raised foods, stay away from anything packaged . Drink clean distilled or R.O. water only.\n\nGet checked for heavy metal contamination, have both Hair analysis and Urinalysis through Calcium EDTA provocation. There is a possibility that you have mercury poisoning, from either vaccination, or through food consumption. If you are positive for heavy metals, then chelation therapy should be explored. Dr Gary Gordon of Tempe Arizona is the expert here. He also works with Dr Amy Yasko that specializes in patients with neurological disorders.\n\nTo check for biotoxin exposure I would recommend Dr.Shoemaker’s website listed below. On his site there is information on doing a VCS (visual contrast sensitivity) test. This doctor specializes on treating people with biotoxin-induced illness.\n\nSome final recommendations I have for you is to look into: enzyme therapy such as Wobenzym N, (it is very popular in Europe especially Germany), Vitamin D therapy and Histamine therapy \n\nAlthough the doctors mentioned below are available for phone consultations, Dr Bihari will be extremely difficult to speak with, instead I would call one of the compounding pharmacies listed on the web site and ask for names of doctors in your area that might be sending prescriptions to them.\n\nI have confidence that you can beat this thing, or put it into remission, all the best to you!

Dexatrim used to work fairly well. It contained pseudaephedrine which caused a numbness of the tongue which decreased the urge to eat.  The FDA took off the market all products containing pseudaephedrine because it was used to make crystal meth.  Buying it now, would be a waste of money.
