Last night was tough. It was my first night without Requip. I'd been taking 1mg. The entire night I had very bad RLS symptoms. I was able to get some rest, but not much. Tylenol helped a bit. Riding my bicycle also helped. Eventually, I drank some alcohol. I played a lot of solitaire on my handheld in an attempt to be quiet and not wake my spouse.
I've not called the sleep doctor, yet. I anticipate problems. Requip isn't working for me and, frankly, I really don't want to try yet one more medication that causes me to be more tired or make my legs twitch. I'd rather just be my regular tired than feeling tired and fuzzy (or uncomfortable) from medication.
I'm pretty sure that's not going to be a popular opinion.
