So I started Requip on July 1 ....25mg.
And for 3 nights my legs did not interfere with my ability to get to sleep. I believe I fell a sleep after 1am and not around 3am like normal.
July 4... There was a slight twitching in my legs but I did fall asleep early again.
July 5th ... I just took .50mg.
No side effects so far. Getting drowsy is a side effect and I don't seem to get drowsy. I feel like I fall asleep because my legs are not keeping me awake.
Oh yeah. I am going to bed the same time every night.

To sleep, perhaps to dream...
YESH!!!
I fall asleep in about 1/2 hour. The only things that wake me up now is the cat or my bladder .
FYI
I collect polar bears.

I haven't been on the board for a while because:
A. my meds seem to be working and
B. I and the husband are buying a house!
Dear god will the paper work never end?! So far I think we have used a whole pine tree in the pursuit of our 789 square foot two bedroom/one bath piece of the American dream.
Only 3 more hoops to go through!
That and maybe one more cord of wood.

Oh what a mistake I made!
I was not paying attention to my requip supply and opps! I ran out.
No requip for two nights. Knowing what it is to fall asleep without my legs jumping around, makes going to bed with out requip frightful, painful, and stressful.
Strange note here...I find myself waking up every hour yet able to fall back to sleep within moments. this happen to anyone else?
