Hi

I've had R.L s since teenage ,but it got worse at 60.I'm now 68 , on waking at night I get involantry movement in my back which sometimes goes on all day.I am taking

gabapentin 3 times a day.300mg and am getting R.L every evening.

This Involantry movement is wearing me out. I don't sleep.From 2am

Im in the chair.Pramipexole did work for me ,but it has bad reviews so I'm afraid to go

back on it. I'm confused.
