I had the same problem, but we figured out it was my antidepressant, not the Requip. I switched from Lexapro to Wellbutrin, and, actually, the sex was better than before I was on anything at all! Yay for Wellbutrin! When I started the Requip, I was already on Lexapro, so it's difficult to say if the...

And you shake it all about...
Today, I'm having a tough time with my arms AND my legs. Does anyone else get RLS symptoms in their arms? I don't know why I'm having a hard time today---it's only 10:30 in the morning.
Second question: Does anyone else have a high occurance of tension headaches or migraines?

I had a sleep study done last summer because my ENT thought I might have sleep apnea. Turns out it was RLS! When I lived in Ohio, my PCP took care of me, but now that we've moved to Indiana, my new PCP referred me to a neurologist. That way one doc is taking care of my ADs and my RLS meds. He's been...

After surfing the boards, I've noticed that a lot of people with RLS are also on an antidepressant of some kind---including me! I wonder if there's a connection. Perhaps the sleep deprivation caused by RLS screws everything else up and requires us to take the other meds. I'm too young to have a day-...

Not moving enough!
I've been on Requip for about three months now, and for the past few weeks, I've been waking up sore shoulders and a sore back---and I think it's from sleeping in the same position for too long! The Requip must have me sleeping so well that I don't move, which I guess is better than running a marath...

I was on Lexapro, too, and it had plenty of side effects other than making my legs go crazy. I switched to Wellbutrin, and everything cleared up! I take Requip now, but when I was taking Lexapro, I was on clonazepam. That, however, left me feeling really "hungover" in the morning---like I'd been hit...

Tricky...
Not that I'm looking for a big reaction, but I, too, get frustrated with people who think RLS is "no big deal." So my thing is that after I say I have RLS, I say that it affects the same part of the brain as Parkinson's. That's true---I even take Requip, which is a lower dose of a medicine originall...
