Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

I've never had insomnia with the Mirapex. I do take Sonata as needed so I can get at least a few hours sleep.

I got on Requip a few months ago, taking up to 4 mg per night as needed. I have it in both legs, sometimes even in my arms and face. It physically ex...
