Guest guest Posted February 14, 1999 Report Share Posted February 14, 1999 My adult son who has recently (at the age of 51) received his RN license is now taking tests to qualify as a Critical Care Nurse. His latest test included a section on Restless Legs, how to recognize it in a patient and which medications are being used to relieve it. What a joy to realize that the medical profession is finally becoming more and more interested in our dilemma. I've just switched to Mirapex -- on a trial basis -- and the first few days are very encouraging. However, my neurologist has not renewed her contract with my hospital HMO -- so I'm looking for another patient advocate neurologist in the Glendale area. She has offered to consult with me via phone if I need her. My husband and I attended the So Cal Support Group last Sunday with Dr Buchfuhrer who is the regular doctor in attendance. I was very enlightening and he is very knowledgeable and sympathetic. Sweet Dreams, Eleanor (78) Glendale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
