Horrible Night/ like torture/Restless legs syndrome

[Guest guest]

Does anyone else out there have restless leg syndrom as well as the

Fibro???

I have been on Requip for about 3 years now and they keep having to

increase the dosage. I now take it all day long (1mg. Tid) and 2mg at

bed and I'm still getting it now & again. If I forget just one pill

during the day it starts... I took all of them yesterday and It started

as soon as I got in bed... Lord I was up walking the floors and

wiggling my legs and about to scream from being sooo exhausted from it

all. My husband says. " take another pill " so I did (1mg) and finally

about 2:30 it eased up. I got into bed and an hour later I woke up with

my legs just moving all over, here we go again!!!! I took another pill

and the about 3:30 I got to sleep.

this is so stressful, I mean I don't sleep much anyway but to have to

wear yourself out just walking and wiggling your legs. I have actually

worn myself out to the point that I finally just go to sleep from

exhaustiion. Is this a side effect of Fibro too???? Or is this just

another wonderfull thing to deal with??? I keep thinking of and

the thorn in his side.... Hinky
