Guest guest Posted November 9, 1998 Report Share Posted November 9, 1998 Hi Barbara, I take two tablets of 0.125 mg of Mirapex an hour before I go to bed. I started with one, and worked my way up to two in about two weeks. At first I had a little augmentation behind my knees, frequent urination, and increased appetite. These symptoms went away after a few weeks. And then I noticed that it stopped being effective, but I continued to take it, and it started working again. I also use a massager called the Thumper, for ten minutes on each leg, before I go to sleep. This really helps my legs settle down. Since I travel quite frequently, I take an extra Mirapex before a flight, and that has really been effective. I am feeling so much better now. I still have trouble sleeping, so occasionally I do take a Tylenol PM. But I will trade some insomnia any day, then have to live with the constant suffering from RLS. I hope this helps.
