Welcome to
rf12345, who has been diagnosed with mild sleep apnea and RLS. However, the RLS seems to be a strange variety and the current medication rf12345 is on is not offering any relief so rf12345 is wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issues. rf12345 is currently getting only a few hours of sleep each night and needs relief!
We would love to be able to offer you some comments, suggestions and answers to any questions that you have if you will post a note telling us about what meds you are taking that don't appear to be helping.

Welcome to Celine
Friday, June 26
Welcome to
Celine, who is currently in in an augmentation phase with Ropinerole and haw decreased from 1 mg to 1/2mg with great difficulty. She really needs the support and knowledge of other people with RLS to learn more about what to do. This is extremely challenging.
Going through the phase of getting off of a dopamine agonist after augmentation is definitely one of the most difficult things about RLS. We would love to offer whatever support you need to get through this period if you will post a note telling us more about your current situation.

Welcome, Berta123

As we close out June, we welcome Berta123 who says that RLS is never far from their mind - from the effect on sleep, wakefulness, or the medication side effects.
Indeed. Such a vicious circle.
Participate however works for you, Berta123. Post (or not). We're here for you.
