I had thought that the Lyrica may have been making my RLS pain worse, or either it was just not helping at all. I feel better and I sleep better. I still have alittle pain, but I can tolerate it. The Requip seems to be helping, but I think it is time to increase my dose. I just hope this lasts! :roll:

I also have muscle twitches, but only in my thighs and calf muscles. I don't get them often and they are not painful, just a nuisance.
