Subject: [QUAD-L] Restless Leg SyndromWhile waiting for my neuro the other day (making sure he and I are on the same page for when SSDI calls) I saw a flier about RLS. It described leg twitching and jerking after one goes to bed. My neuro offered a few different sample drugs for RLS saying he doubted they would have any effect but he said, "what the hell?" He's an older guy and I really like him - he's willing to try anything under close supervision. He admits he doesn't know all the answers. The 1st time he saw me he walked backwards down the hall watching me push my manual chair - and then did a few tuning fork touch tests before he said, "it's easy to see that the only thing keeping you going is your will power. For my money, you are completely disabled and can't work a 40 hour a week job." (My get-out-of-jail-free card.) The 1st one he gave me is Mirapex 0.25 mg, and it seems to work GREAT!!. My legs are ! VERY quiet at night now and even less jumpy during the daytime. This drug evidently increases dopamine in the brain which affects random excess motor neural activity. --> http://www.mirapex.com/C/index.aspI am REALLY happy with Mirapex and thought maybe any of you with similar symptoms might like to give it a try.
